New American Standard Bible 1995
2 Timothy 4:1-8
11I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to 2judge the living and the dead, and by His 3appearing and His kingdom: 2preach 4the word; be ready in season and out of season; 5reprove, rebuke, exhort, with 6great 7patience and instruction. 3For 8the time will come when they will not endure 9sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, 4and 10will turn away their ears from the truth and 11will turn aside to myths. 5But you, 12be sober in all things, 13endure hardship, do the work of an 14evangelist, fulfill your 15ministry.
6For I am already being 16poured out as a drink offering, and the time of 17my departure has come. 718I have fought the good fight, I have finished 19the course, I have kept 20the faith; 8in the future there 21is laid up for me 22the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on 23that day; and not only to me, but also to 24all who have loved His 25appearing.
