2 Timothy 4
English Standard Version
Preach the Word
4 (A)I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, (B)who is to judge the living and the dead, and by (C)his appearing and his kingdom: 2 preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; (D)reprove, rebuke, and (E)exhort, with complete patience and teaching. 3 (F)For the time is coming when people will not endure (G)sound[a] teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, 4 and (H)will turn away from listening to the truth and (I)wander off into myths. 5 As for you, (J)always be sober-minded, (K)endure suffering, do the work of (L)an evangelist, (M)fulfill your ministry.
6 For (N)I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my (O)departure has come. 7 (P)I have fought the good fight, (Q)I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Henceforth there is (R)laid up for me (S)the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, (T)the righteous judge, will award to me on (U)that day, and not only to me but also to all (V)who have loved his appearing.
Personal Instructions
9 (W)Do your best to come to me soon. 10 For (X)Demas, (Y)in love with (Z)this present world, (AA)has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia,[b] (AB)Titus to Dalmatia. 11 (AC)Luke alone is with me. Get (AD)Mark and bring him with you, for he is very useful to me for ministry. 12 (AE)Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. 13 When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, also the books, and above all the parchments. 14 (AF)Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; (AG)the Lord will repay him according to his deeds. 15 Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message. 16 At my first defense no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. (AH)May it not be charged against them! 17 But (AI)the Lord stood by me and (AJ)strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and (AK)all the Gentiles might hear it. So (AL)I was rescued (AM)from the lion's mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed and bring me safely into his heavenly kingdom. (AN)To him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
Final Greetings
19 Greet (AO)Prisca and Aquila, and (AP)the household of Onesiphorus. 20 Erastus remained at Corinth, and I left (AQ)Trophimus, who was ill, at Miletus. 21 (AR)Do your best to come before winter. Eubulus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brothers.[c]
22 The Lord be (AS)with your spirit. (AT)Grace be with you.[d]

Continue to Do Your Work
4 I solemnly call on you in the presence of God and Christ Jesus, who is going to judge those who are living and those who are dead. I do this because Christ Jesus will come to rule ⌞the world⌟. 2 Be ready to spread the word whether or not the time is right. Point out errors, warn people, and encourage them. Be very patient when you teach.
3 A time will come when people will not listen to accurate teachings. Instead, they will follow their own desires and surround themselves with teachers who tell them what they want to hear. 4 People will refuse to listen to the truth and turn to myths.
5 But you must keep a clear head in everything. Endure suffering. Do the work of a missionary. Devote yourself completely to your work.
6 My life is coming to an end, and it is now time for me to be poured out as a sacrifice to God. 7 I have fought the good fight. I have completed the race. I have kept the faith. 8 The prize that shows I have God’s approval is now waiting for me. The Lord, who is a fair judge, will give me that prize on that day. He will give it not only to me but also to everyone who is eagerly waiting for him to come again.
Paul’s Final Instructions to Timothy
9 Hurry to visit me soon. 10 Demas has abandoned me. He fell in love with this present world and went to the city of Thessalonica. Crescens went to the province of Galatia, and Titus went to the province of Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you. He is useful to me in my work. 12 I’m sending Tychicus to the city of Ephesus as my representative.
13 When you come, bring the warm coat I left with Carpus in the city of Troas. Also bring the scrolls and especially the parchments.[a]
14 Alexander the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will pay him back for what he did. 15 Watch out for him. He violently opposed what we said. 16 At my first hearing no one stood up in my defense. Everyone abandoned me. I pray that it won’t be held against them. 17 However, the Lord stood by me and gave me strength so that I could finish spreading the Good News for all the nations to hear. I was snatched out of a lion’s mouth. 18 The Lord will rescue me from all harm and will take me safely to his heavenly kingdom. Glory belongs to him forever! Amen.
Final Greetings
19 Give my greetings to Prisca and Aquila and the family of Onesiphorus. 20 Erastus stayed in the city of Corinth and I left Trophimus in the city of Miletus because he was sick. 21 Hurry to visit me before winter comes. Eubulus, Pudens, Linus, Claudia and all the brothers and sisters send you greetings.
22 The Lord be with you. His good will [b] be with all of you.

Predica la palabra
4 Te encarezco delante de Dios y del Señor Jesucristo, que juzgará a los vivos y a los muertos en su manifestación y en su reino, 2 que prediques la palabra; que instes a tiempo y fuera de tiempo; redarguye, reprende, exhorta con toda paciencia y doctrina. 3 Porque vendrá tiempo cuando no sufrirán la sana doctrina, sino que teniendo comezón de oír, se amontonarán maestros conforme a sus propias concupiscencias, 4 y apartarán de la verdad el oído y se volverán a las fábulas. 5 Pero tú sé sobrio en todo, soporta las aflicciones, haz obra de evangelista, cumple tu ministerio.
6 Porque yo ya estoy para ser sacrificado, y el tiempo de mi partida está cercano. 7 He peleado la buena batalla, he acabado la carrera, he guardado la fe. 8 Por lo demás, me está guardada la corona de justicia, la cual me dará el Señor, juez justo, en aquel día; y no solo a mí, sino también a todos los que aman su venida.
Instrucciones personales
9 Procura venir pronto a verme, 10 porque Demas(A) me ha desamparado, amando este mundo, y se ha ido a Tesalónica. Crescente fue a Galacia, y Tito(B) a Dalmacia. 11 Solo Lucas(C) está conmigo. Toma a Marcos(D) y tráele contigo, porque me es útil para el ministerio. 12 A Tíquico(E) lo envié a Éfeso. 13 Trae, cuando vengas, el capote que dejé en Troas(F) en casa de Carpo, y los libros, mayormente los pergaminos. 14 Alejandro(G) el calderero me ha causado muchos males; el Señor le pague conforme a sus hechos. 15 Guárdate tú también de él, pues en gran manera se ha opuesto a nuestras palabras. 16 En mi primera defensa ninguno estuvo a mi lado, sino que todos me desampararon; no les sea tomado en cuenta. 17 Pero el Señor estuvo a mi lado, y me dio fuerzas, para que por mí fuese cumplida la predicación, y que todos los gentiles oyesen. Así fui librado de la boca del león. 18 Y el Señor me librará de toda obra mala, y me preservará para su reino celestial. A él sea gloria por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Saludos y bendición final
19 Saluda a Prisca y a Aquila,(H) y a la casa de Onesíforo.(I) 20 Erasto(J) se quedó en Corinto, y a Trófimo(K) dejé en Mileto enfermo. 21 Procura venir antes del invierno. Eubulo te saluda, y Pudente, Lino, Claudia y todos los hermanos.
22 El Señor Jesucristo esté con tu espíritu. La gracia sea con vosotros. Amén.

2-е Тимофею 4
Russian Synodal Version
4 Итак заклинаю тебя пред Богом и Господом нашим Иисусом Христом, Который будет судить живых и мертвых в явление Его и Царствие Его:
2 проповедуй слово, настой во время и не во время, обличай, запрещай, увещевай со всяким долготерпением и назиданием.
3 Ибо будет время, когда здравого учения принимать не будут, но по своим прихотям будут избирать себе учителей, которые льстили бы слуху;
4 и от истины отвратят слух и обратятся к басням.
5 Но ты будь бдителен во всем, переноси скорби, совершай дело благовестника, исполняй служение твое.
6 Ибо я уже становлюсь жертвою, и время моего отшествия настало.
7 Подвигом добрым я подвизался, течение совершил, веру сохранил;
8 а теперь готовится мне венец правды, который даст мне Господь, праведный Судия, в день оный; и не только мне, но и всем, возлюбившим явление Его.
9 Постарайся придти ко мне скоро.
10 Ибо Димас оставил меня, возлюбив нынешний век, и пошел в Фессалонику, Крискент в Галатию, Тит в Далматию; один Лука со мною.
11 Марка возьми и приведи с собою, ибо он мне нужен для служения.
12 Тихика я послал в Ефес.
13 Когда пойдешь, принеси фелонь, который я оставил в Троаде у Карпа, и книги, особенно кожаные.
14 Александр медник много сделал мне зла. Да воздаст ему Господь по делам его!
15 Берегись его и ты, ибо он сильно противился нашим словам.
16 При первом моем ответе никого не было со мною, но все меня оставили. Да не вменится им!
17 Господь же предстал мне и укрепил меня, дабы через меня утвердилось благовестие и услышали все язычники; и я избавился из львиных челюстей.
18 И избавит меня Господь от всякого злого дела и сохранит для Своего Небесного Царства, Ему слава во веки веков. Аминь.
19 Приветствуй Прискиллу и Акилу и дом Онисифоров.
20 Ераст остался в Коринфе; Трофима же я оставил больного в Милите.
21 Постарайся придти до зимы. Приветствуют тебя Еввул, и Пуд, и Лин, и Клавдия, и все братия.
22 Господь Иисус Христос со духом твоим. Благодать с вами. Аминь.
