2 Timothy 3:2-17

2For men will be 1lovers of self, 2lovers of money, 3boastful, 4arrogant, 5revilers, 6disobedient to parents, 7ungrateful, 8unholy, 39unloving, irreconcilable, 10malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, 1112haters of good, 413treacherous, 14reckless, 15conceited, 16lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5holding to a form of 1718godliness, although they have 19denied its power; 20Avoid such men as these. 6For among them are those who 2122enter into households and captivate 2324weak women weighed down with sins, led on by 25various impulses, 7always learning and never able to 26come to the 27knowledge of the truth. 8Just as 28Jannes and Jambres 29opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, 30men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith. 9But they will not make further progress; for their 31folly will be obvious to all, just 32as 33Jannes’s and Jambres’s folly was also.

10Now you 34followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, 35love, 36perseverance, 1137persecutions, and 38sufferings, such as happened to me at 39Antioch, at 40Iconium and at 41Lystra; what 42persecutions I endured, and out of them all 43the Lord rescued me! 12Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus 44will be persecuted. 13But evil men and impostors 45will proceed from bad to worse, 46deceiving and being deceived. 14You, however, 47continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15and that 48from childhood you have known 49the sacred writings which are able to 50give you the wisdom that leads to 51salvation through faith which is in 52Christ Jesus. 1653All Scripture is 54inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for 55training in righteousness; 17so that 56the man of God may be adequate, 57equipped for every good work.
