2 Timothy, Chapter 3

1. But, of this, be taking note -- that, in last days, there will set in perilous seasons;    2. For men will be -- fond of themselves, fond of money, ostentatious, arrogant, defamers, to parents, unyielding, unthankful, unkind,    3. without natural affection, accepting no truce, given to intrigue, without self-control, uncivilized, unfriendly to good men,    4. traitors, reckless, beclouded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God,    5. having a form of godliness, but, the power thereof, denying! and, from these, turn away;    6. For, of these, are they who enter into the houses, and captivate silly women, [women] laden with sins, led on by manifold covetings,    7. Ever learning and never, unto a personal knowledge of truth, able to come;    8. Moreover, like as, Jannes and Jambres, withstood Moses, so, these men also, withstand the truth, -- men utterly corrupted in their mind, disapproved concerning their faith;    9. But they shall not force their way further, for, their folly, shall be, fully evident, unto all, -- as also, that of those men, became.    10. But, thou, hast closely studied -- my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance,    11. persecutions, sufferings, what manner of things, befell me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra, what manner of persecutions, I endured, -- and, out of all, the Lord, rescued me; --    12. Yea and, all who are determined to live in a godly manner in Christ Jesus, will be persecuted;    13. Whereas, wicked men and howling impostors, will force their way to the worse, deceiving and being deceived.    14. But, thou, -- abide in the things which thou hast learned, and been entrusted with, knowing, from whom, thou hast learned [them], --    15. And that, from a babe, those sacred letters, thou hast known which are able to make thee wise unto salvation, through the faith which is in Christ Jesus:    16. Every scripture, [is] God-breathed, and profitable -- unto teaching, unto conviction, unto correction, unto the discipline that is in righteousness, --    17. In order that, ready, may be the man, of God, unto every good work, being well-prepared.
