2 Timothy 4:7-15

7I have competed well; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith!

8Finally the crown of righteousness is reserved for me. The Lord, the righteous Judge, will award it to me in that day – and not to me only, but also to all who have set their affection on his appearing.

9Make every effort to come to me soon.

10For Demas deserted me, since he loved the present age, and he went to Thessalonica. Crescens went to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia.

11Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is a great help to me in ministry.

12Now I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

13When you come, bring with you the cloak I left in Troas with Carpas and the scrolls, especially the parchments.

14Alexander the coppersmith did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him in keeping with his deeds.

15You be on guard against him too, because he vehemently opposed our words.
