I charge you before God and before Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, through his appearance and his kingdom.

Be sure to preach. Regardless of the timing, always focus and use all kinds of patience and teaching to rebuke, warn, and encourage people.

Because the time is coming, people will tire of pure reason. If your ears itch, follow your own desires and add many masters.

And they cover their ears and do not listen to the true way, leaning towards words of desolation.

But you must be cautious in all things, endure hardships, work as a preacher, and fulfill your duties.

I am now being poured, and it is time for me to pass away.

I have already fought that beautiful battle. I have already run all the way. I have held onto the path I believe in.

From now on, there will be a crown of righteousness preserved for me, which the Lord, who judges according to righteousness, will give me on that day. Not only to me, but also to anyone who admires his manifestation.

You need to come to me quickly.

Because Demas was greedy for the present world, he abandoned me and went to Thessalonica. Klaus is going to Galatia. Tito goes to Tarmat.

Unique Luke is with me. Bring Marco with you when you come. Because he is beneficial to me in preaching. (preaching or serving me)

I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus.

You can bring the coat I left for Gab in Troa when you come. Those books also need to be brought. What’s even more important are those leather rolls.

The coppersmith Alexander mostly harmed me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds.

You also need to be on guard against him. Because he tried his best to resist our words.

My first appeal, no one came to help, and everyone abandoned me. I hope this sin does not belong to them.

But the Lord stood by my side, giving me strength to fully proclaim the gospel, so that all the Gentiles may hear it. I was also rescued from the lion’s mouth.

The Lord will deliver me from all evil, and he will also deliver me into his kingdom of heaven. May glory be upon him forever and ever. Amen.

Greet the people of Bachelah, Aquila, and the house of Anesepher.

Eladus has settled in Corinth. Trofemo is sick, so I’ll keep him in Miletus.

You need to come to me before winter. Youbro, Butan, Linus, Geradea, and all the brothers greet you.

May the Lord be with your spirit. May grace always be with you.
