2 Timothy 4
1 I adjure [thee] before God, and Christ Jesus—Who is about to be judging living and dead, —both as to his forthshining and his kingdom,
ⲁ̅ϯⲉⲣⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲛⲉⲙ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁϯϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲧⲟⲛϧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲑⲙⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲉϥⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲟ.
2 Proclaim the word, take thy position—in season, out of season, —convince, rebuke, encourage, —with all long-suffering and teaching.
ⲃ̅ϩⲓⲱⲓϣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ϩⲓϫⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲕⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲁⲕⲉⲣⲟⲥ ⲥⲟϩⲓ ⲙⲁⲑⲉⲧϩⲏⲧ ⲁⲣⲓⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲙⲉⲧⲣⲉϥⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ.
3 For there will be a season—when, the healthful teaching, they will not endure, but, according to their own covetings, will, unto themselves, heap up teachers, because they have an itching ear,
ⲅ̅ⲉϥ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲏⲟⲩ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩϣⲉⲡ ϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲟϫ ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓⲁ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲉⲩⲥⲱⲕ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⲉⲩϧⲱϧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲙⲁϣϫ.
4 And, from the truth, indeed, their ear, will they turn away, while, unto stories, they will turn themselves aside.

5 But, thou, —be sober in all things, suffer hardship, do, the work, of an evangelist, thy ministry, completely fulfill;

6 For, I, already, am being poured out as a drink-offering, and, the season of my release, is at hand, —

8 Henceforth, lieth by for me—the crown, of righteousness, which the Lord will render unto me in that, day, —The righteous judge, —Ye, not alone unto me, but unto all them also who have loved his forthshining.

10 For, Demas, hath forsaken me, having loved the present age, and hath journeyed unto Thessalonica; Crescens unto Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia: (aiōn g165)

14 Alexander the coppersmith, of much baseness towards me, hath given proof, —the Lord will render unto him according to his works.—

16 In my first defence, no man, came in to help me, but, all, forsook me, —unto them, may it not be reckoned!—

17 But, the Lord, stood by me, and empowered me, in order that, through me, the proclamation, might be fully made, and, all the nations, might hear; and I was delivered out of the mouth of a lion: —
