Final Instructions To Timothy

⁹ Make every effort to come to me soon; ¹⁰ for Demas, having loved [the pleasures of] this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. ¹¹ Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, for he is very helpful to me for the ministry.
