2 Timothy 4:9-18 - Final Instructions To Timothy

⁹ Procure to come shortly unto me; ¹⁰ for Demas has 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 I have sent to Ephesus. ¹³ The cloak that I left at Troas in the house of 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 has greatly resisted our words.

¹⁶ At my first answer no one stood with me, but all men forsook me: let it not be imputed unto them. ¹⁷ But 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 save me for his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
