\subsection{II Timothy 4}
\VS{1} I adjure you before God and Christ Jesus, who is [about] to be judging [the] zoe-living\fnZoe{} and [the] dead, and his appearance and his kingdom: 
\VS{2} preach the word, be ready in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, exhort, 
in all long-suffering and teaching. 
\VS{3} For the opportune-time\fnKairos{} will come when they will not endure 
sound teaching, but according to their own lusts they will heap to 
themselves teachers, having itching hearing, 
\VS{4} and they will turn 
[their] hearing away from the truth, and will be turned to myths. 
\VS{5} But you be being sober in everything, endure evil, 
do [the] work of [a] good-newser, fulfill you service. 
\VS{6} For I am ready to be sacrificed, and the opportune-time\fnKairos{} of my 
departure is imminent. 
\VS{7} I have fought the good fight, I have completed the course, I have kept the faith, 
\VS{8} henceforth is stored up for me the 
crown of justice, which the Lord will render me in that day, the just judge, 
and not only to me, but also to all those having agape-loved his appearance. 

\VS{9} Be earnest to come to me swiftly. 
\VS{10} For Demas has forsaken me, 
having agape-loved the present age, and he went to Thessalonika, Kreskos to 
Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. 
\VS{11} Luke only is with me. Having taken Mark, 
bring [him] with you, for he is useful to me for service. 
\VS{12} And I sent Tuchikon to Ephesus. 
\VS{13} The cloak which I left in Troas with Carpus, 
when you come, be bringing [it], and the scroll, and especially [the] parchments. 
\VS{14} Alexander the coppersmith has done me much evil, the Lord will 
render to him according to his works, 
\VS{15} of whom you also be on guard, 
for he has exceedingly opposed our words. 
\VS{16} At my first defense no one 
stood with me, but all abandoned me. May it not be reckoned to them. 
\VS{17} But the Lord stood by me and enabled me, in order that my proclamation be 
fulfilled and all the nations hear, and I was rescued from the lion's mouth. 
\VS{18} The Lord will rescue me from every wicked\fnPoneros{} work and will save [me] for 
his heavenly kingdom, to whom [be] the glory to the ages of ages, Amen. 
\VS{19} Greet Priska and Akula and the household of Onesiphorus. 
\VS{20} Erastos 
abode in Corinth, but Trophimus I left in Miletus being sick. 
\VS{21} Be earnest to come before winter. Euboulos greets you, and Poudens and Linus 
and Klaudia and all the brothers. 

\VS{22} The Lord [be] with your spirit. The grace [be]\footnote{or ``[is]''} with you.
