2 Timothy 4:5-11
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
5 As for you, be sober in everything, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, carry out your ministry fully.(A)
6 As for me, I am already being poured out as a libation, and the time of my departure has come.(B) 7 I have fought the good fight; I have finished the race; I have kept the faith.(C) 8 From now on there is reserved for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have longed for his appearing.(D)
Personal Instructions
9 Do your best to come to me soon, 10 for Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia,[a] Titus to Dalmatia.(E) 11 Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me in ministry.(F)
