2 Timothy 4:9-18

9Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:

10for Demas forsook me, having loved this present world, and went to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.

11Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is useful to me for ministering.

12But Tychicus I sent to Ephesus.

13The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, bring when thou comest, and the books, especially the parchments.

14Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord will render to him according to his works:

15of whom be thou ware also; for he greatly withstood our words.

16At my first defence no one took my part, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their account.

17But the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me; that through me the message might be fully proclaimed, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

18The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and will save me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
