2 Timothy 4:9-18 - Final Instructions To Timothy
9 Make haste to come to me quickly; 10 for Demas forsook me having loved the present life and went to Thessalonica, Cresces to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia; 11 Luke only is with me. Take Mark and bring him with you; for [he will be] useful to me for service. 12 But I sent Tychicus to Ephesus. 13 The cloak which I left at Troas with Carpus, when you come, bring, and the books, especially the parchments. 14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much harm; may the Lord reward him according to his work. 15 And do you beware of him, for he greatly opposed our words.
16 At my first defense no one stood by me, but all forsook me; may it not be set to their account; 17 but the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that the word should be fully declared by me, and all the nations should hear, and I was delivered from the mouth of the lion. 18 The Lord will deliver me from every evil work, and bring me safe to his heavenly kingdom; to whom be the glory forever and ever; amen.
