2 Timoteo 3
Nueva Versión Internacional
La impiedad en los últimos días
3 Ahora bien, ten en cuenta que en los últimos días vendrán tiempos difíciles. 2 La gente estará llena de egoísmo y avaricia; serán jactanciosos, arrogantes, blasfemos, desobedientes a los padres, ingratos, impíos, 3 insensibles, implacables, calumniadores, libertinos, despiadados, enemigos de todo lo bueno, 4 traicioneros, impetuosos, vanidosos y más amigos del placer que de Dios. 5 Aparentarán ser devotos, pero su conducta desmentirá el poder de la devoción. ¡Con esa gente ni te metas!
6 Así son los que van de casa en casa cautivando a mujeres débiles cargadas de pecados, que se dejan llevar por toda clase de pasiones. 7 Ellas siempre están aprendiendo, pero nunca logran conocer la verdad. 8 Del mismo modo que Janes y Jambres se opusieron a Moisés, también esa gente se opone a la verdad. Son personas de mente depravada, reprobadas en la fe. 9 Pero no llegarán muy lejos, porque todo el mundo se dará cuenta de su insensatez, como pasó con aquellos dos.
Encargo de Pablo a Timoteo
10 Tú, en cambio, has seguido paso a paso mis enseñanzas, mi manera de vivir, mi propósito, mi fe, mi paciencia, mi amor, mi constancia, 11 mis persecuciones y mis sufrimientos. Estás enterado de lo que sufrí en Antioquía, Iconio y Listra, y de las persecuciones que soporté. Y de todas ellas me libró el Señor. 12 Así mismo serán perseguidos todos los que quieran llevar una vida piadosa en Cristo Jesús, 13 mientras que esos malvados farsantes irán de mal en peor, engañando y siendo engañados. 14 Pero tú permanece firme en lo que has aprendido y de lo cual estás convencido, pues sabes de quiénes lo aprendiste. 15 Desde tu niñez conoces las Sagradas Escrituras, que pueden darte la sabiduría necesaria para la salvación mediante la fe en Cristo Jesús. 16 Toda la Escritura es inspirada por Dios y útil para enseñar, para reprender, para corregir y para instruir en la justicia, 17 a fin de que el siervo de Dios esté enteramente capacitado para toda buena obra.
2 Timothy 3
New International Version
3 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days.(A) 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money,(B) boastful, proud,(C) abusive,(D) disobedient to their parents,(E) ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous,(F) rash, conceited,(G) lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness(H) but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.(I)
6 They are the kind who worm their way(J) into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.(K) 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses,(L) so also these teachers oppose(M) the truth. They are men of depraved minds,(N) who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men,(O) their folly will be clear to everyone.
A Final Charge to Timothy
10 You, however, know all about my teaching,(P) my way of life, my purpose, faith, patience, love, endurance, 11 persecutions, sufferings—what kinds of things happened to me in Antioch,(Q) Iconium(R) and Lystra,(S) the persecutions I endured.(T) Yet the Lord rescued(U) me from all of them.(V) 12 In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,(W) 13 while evildoers and impostors will go from bad to worse,(X) deceiving and being deceived.(Y) 14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it,(Z) 15 and how from infancy(AA) you have known the Holy Scriptures,(AB) which are able to make you wise(AC) for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All Scripture is God-breathed(AD) and is useful for teaching,(AE) rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,(AF) 17 so that the servant of God[a](AG) may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.(AH)

2 Timothy 3
New King James Version
Perilous Times and Perilous Men
3 But know this, that (A)in the last days [a]perilous times will come: 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3 unloving, [b]unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4 (B)traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 (C)having a form of godliness but (D)denying its power. And (E)from such people turn away! 6 For (F)of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts, 7 always learning and never able (G)to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 (H)Now as Jannes and Jambres resisted Moses, so do these also resist the truth: (I)men of corrupt minds, (J)disapproved concerning the faith; 9 but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, (K)as theirs also was.
The Man of God and the Word of God
10 (L)But you have carefully followed my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, perseverance, 11 persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me (M)at Antioch, (N)at Iconium, (O)at Lystra—what persecutions I endured. And (P)out of them all the Lord delivered me. 12 Yes, and (Q)all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. 13 (R)But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. 14 But you must (S)continue in the things which you have learned and been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them, 15 and that from childhood you have known (T)the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.
16 (U)All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, (V)and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [c]instruction in righteousness, 17 (W)that the man of God may be complete, (X)thoroughly equipped for every good work.
