Palabra de Dios para Todos
2 Timoteo 4
Palabra de Dios para Todos
4 Cuando Jesucristo regrese como rey, juzgará a los vivos y a los muertos. Así que ante Dios y Jesucristo te ordeno 2 que anuncies el mensaje e insistas en todo momento, oportuno o no. Muéstrales lo malo que han hecho, corrígelos cuando se equivoquen y anímalos; enseña siempre con mucha paciencia. 3 Porque llegarán tiempos en que la gente no querrá escuchar la verdadera enseñanza que conduce a una vida recta y sólo buscarán rodearse de maestros que los complazcan diciendo lo que quieren escuchar. 4 La gente dejará de escuchar la verdad y comenzará a dejarse guiar por historias falsas. 5 Pero no pierdas la calma, soporta los sufrimientos y dedícate a contar la buena noticia y a cumplir los deberes de un siervo de Dios.
6 Se acerca el momento de mi muerte; mi vida ya se está ofreciendo como un sacrificio a Dios. 7 Me fue bien en la competencia: he peleado bien, he terminado la carrera y no he perdido la fe. 8 Ahora me espera una corona que recibiré como muestra de aprobación. El Señor, juez justo, me la dará ese día, y también a todos los que esperan con anhelo su llegada.
Recomendaciones personales
9 Ven tan pronto como puedas. 10 Demas me abandonó porque amaba las cosas de este mundo y se fue a Tesalónica. Crescente se fue a Galacia y Tito a Dalmacia. 11 Sólo Lucas está conmigo, así que busca a Marcos y tráelo cuando vengas. Él me será útil en el trabajo aquí. 12 A Tíquico lo envié a Éfeso. 13 Cuando vengas, por favor tráeme la capa que dejé en la casa de Carpo, en Troas. También tráeme mis libros, especialmente los escritos en pergamino.
14 Alejandro, el herrero, me trató muy mal. El Señor lo castigará por lo que hizo. 15 Tú también cuídate de él porque se opuso a nuestra enseñanza.
16 En mi primera defensa nadie me ayudó, todos me abandonaron. Que Dios no tome eso en contra de ellos. 17 Pero el Señor estuvo conmigo y me dio fuerzas para aprovechar al máximo la oportunidad de anunciar el mensaje para que todos los que no son judíos pudieran oír, y así me rescató de la boca del león. 18 El Señor me salvará cuando alguien quiera atacarme y me llevará a su reino en el cielo. Al Señor sea el honor por toda la eternidad. Así sea.
Saludos finales
19 Saludos a Prisca y Aquila, y a la familia de Onesíforo. 20 Erasto se quedó en Corinto y a Trófimo lo deje enfermo en Mileto. 21 Haz todo lo posible por venir antes del invierno. Saludos de Eubulo, Pudente, Lino, Claudia y de todos los hermanos en Cristo.
22 Que el Señor esté contigo. Que Dios los bendiga en abundancia.

4 En presencia de Dios y de Cristo Jesús, que ha de venir en su reino y que juzgará a los vivos y a los muertos, te doy este solemne encargo: 2 Predica la Palabra; persiste en hacerlo, sea o no sea oportuno; corrige, reprende y anima con mucha paciencia, sin dejar de enseñar. 3 Porque llegará el tiempo en que no van a tolerar la sana doctrina, sino que, llevados de sus propios deseos, se rodearán de maestros que les digan las novelerías que quieren oír. 4 Dejarán de escuchar la verdad y se volverán a los mitos. 5 Tú, por el contrario, sé prudente en todas las circunstancias, soporta los sufrimientos, dedícate a la evangelización; cumple con los deberes de tu ministerio.
6 Yo, por mi parte, ya estoy a punto de ser ofrecido como un sacrificio, y el tiempo de mi partida ha llegado. 7 He peleado la buena batalla, he terminado la carrera, me he mantenido en la fe. 8 Por lo demás me espera la corona de justicia que el Señor, el juez justo, me otorgará en aquel día; y no solo a mí, sino también a todos los que con amor hayan esperado su venida.
Instrucciones personales
9 Haz todo lo posible por venir a verme cuanto antes, 10 pues Demas, por amor a este mundo, me ha abandonado y se ha ido a Tesalónica. Crescente se ha ido a Galacia y Tito, a Dalmacia. 11 Solo Lucas está conmigo. Recoge a Marcos y tráelo contigo, porque me es de ayuda en mi ministerio. 12 A Tíquico lo mandé a Éfeso. 13 Cuando vengas, trae la capa que dejé en Troas, en casa de Carpo; trae también los libros, especialmente los pergaminos.
14 Alejandro el herrero me ha hecho mucho daño. El Señor le dará su merecido. 15 Tú también cuídate de él, porque se opuso tenazmente a nuestro mensaje.
16 En mi primera defensa, nadie me respaldó, sino que todos me abandonaron. Que no les sea tomado en cuenta. 17 Pero el Señor estuvo a mi lado y me dio fuerzas para que por medio de mí se llevara a cabo la predicación del mensaje y lo oyeran todos los paganos. Y fui librado de la boca del león. 18 El Señor me librará de todo mal y me preservará para su reino celestial. A él sea la gloria por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.
Saludos finales
19 Saludos a Priscila y a Aquila, y a la familia de Onesíforo. 20 Erasto se quedó en Corinto; a Trófimo lo dejé enfermo en Mileto. 21 Haz todo lo posible por venir antes del invierno. Te mandan saludos Eubulo, Pudente, Lino, Claudia y todos los hermanos. 22 El Señor esté con tu espíritu. Que la gracia sea con vosotros.
2 Timothy 4
New International Version
2 Timothy 4
New International Version
4 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead,(A) and in view of his appearing(B) and his kingdom, I give you this charge:(C) 2 Preach(D) the word;(E) be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke(F) and encourage(G)—with great patience and careful instruction. 3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine.(H) Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.(I) 4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.(J) 5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship,(K) do the work of an evangelist,(L) discharge all the duties of your ministry.
6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering,(M) and the time for my departure is near.(N) 7 I have fought the good fight,(O) I have finished the race,(P) I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me(Q) the crown of righteousness,(R) which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day(S)—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.(T)
Personal Remarks
9 Do your best to come to me quickly,(U) 10 for Demas,(V) because he loved this world,(W) has deserted me and has gone to Thessalonica.(X) Crescens has gone to Galatia,(Y) and Titus(Z) to Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke(AA) is with me.(AB) Get Mark(AC) and bring him with you, because he is helpful to me in my ministry. 12 I sent Tychicus(AD) to Ephesus.(AE) 13 When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas,(AF) and my scrolls, especially the parchments.
14 Alexander(AG) the metalworker did me a great deal of harm. The Lord will repay him for what he has done.(AH) 15 You too should be on your guard against him, because he strongly opposed our message.
16 At my first defense, no one came to my support, but everyone deserted me. May it not be held against them.(AI) 17 But the Lord stood at my side(AJ) and gave me strength,(AK) so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it.(AL) And I was delivered from the lion’s mouth.(AM) 18 The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack(AN) and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom.(AO) To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen.(AP)
Final Greetings
19 Greet Priscilla[a] and Aquila(AQ) and the household of Onesiphorus.(AR) 20 Erastus(AS) stayed in Corinth, and I left Trophimus(AT) sick in Miletus.(AU) 21 Do your best to get here before winter.(AV) Eubulus greets you, and so do Pudens, Linus, Claudia and all the brothers and sisters.[b]
22 The Lord be with your spirit.(AW) Grace be with you all.(AX)

2 Timothy 4
King James Version
2 Timothy 4
King James Version
4 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;
2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine.
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.
9 Do thy diligence to come shortly unto me:
10 For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia.
11 Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
12 And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus.
13 The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments.
14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:
15 Of whom be thou ware also; for he hath greatly withstood our words.
16 At my first answer no man stood with me, but all men forsook me: I pray God that it may not be laid to their charge.
17 Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.
18 And the Lord shall deliver me from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
19 Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
20 Erastus abode at Corinth: but Trophimus have I left at Miletum sick.
21 Do thy diligence to come before winter. Eubulus greeteth thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and all the brethren.
22 The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.

New King James Version
Preach the Word
4 I (A)charge you [a]therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, (B)who will judge the living and the dead [b]at His appearing and His kingdom: 2 Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. (C)Convince, (D)rebuke, (E)exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. 3 (F)For the time will come when they will not endure (G)sound doctrine, (H)but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and (I)be turned aside to fables. 5 But you be watchful in all things, (J)endure afflictions, do the work of (K)an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
Paul’s Valedictory
6 For (L)I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of (M)my departure is at hand. 7 (N)I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Finally, there is laid up for me (O)the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous (P)Judge, will give to me (Q)on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.
The Abandoned Apostle
9 Be diligent to come to me quickly; 10 for (R)Demas has forsaken me, (S)having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica—Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. 11 Only Luke is with me. Get (T)Mark and bring him with you, for he is useful to me for ministry. 12 And (U)Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. 13 Bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas when you come—and the books, especially the parchments.
14 (V)Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm. May the Lord repay him according to his works. 15 You also must beware of him, for he has greatly resisted our words.
16 At my first defense no one stood with me, but all forsook me. (W)May it not be charged against them.
The Lord Is Faithful
17 (X)But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, (Y)so that the message might be preached fully through me, and that all the Gentiles might hear. Also I was delivered (Z)out of the mouth of the lion. 18 (AA)And the Lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. (AB)To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!
Come Before Winter
19 Greet (AC)Prisca and Aquila, and the household of (AD)Onesiphorus. 20 (AE)Erastus stayed in Corinth, but (AF)Trophimus I have left in Miletus sick.
21 Do your utmost to come before winter.
Eubulus greets you, as well as Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brethren.
Farewell
22 The Lord [c]Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Grace be with you. Amen.
