4:2 preach 2784 the word 3056; be ready 2186 in season 2122 [and] out of season 171; reprove 1651, rebuke 2008, exhort 3870, with great 3956 patience 3115 and instruction 1322.

4:4 and will turn 654 away 654 their ears 189 from the truth 225 and will turn 1624 aside 1624 to myths 3454.

4:5 But you, be sober 3525 in all 3956 things 3956, endure 2553 hardship 2553, do 4160 the work 2041 of an evangelist 2099, fulfill 4135 your ministry 1248.

4:6 ¶ For I am already 2235 being poured 4689 out as a drink 4689 offering 4689, and the time 2540 of my departure 359 has come 2186.

4:7 I have fought 75 the good 2570 fight 73, I have finished 5055 the course 1408, I have kept 5083 the faith 4102;

4:8 in the future 3062 there is laid 606 up for me the crown 4735 of righteousness 1343, which 3739 the Lord 2962, the righteous 1342 Judge 2923, will award 591 to me on that day 2250; and not only 3440 to me, but also 2532 to all 3956 who have loved 25 His appearing 2015.

4:9 ¶ Make 4704 every 4704 effort 4704 to come 2064 to me soon 5030;

4:10 for Demas 1214, having loved 25 this 3588 present 3568 world 165, has deserted 1459 me and gone 4198 to Thessalonica 2332; Crescens 2913 [has gone] to Galatia 1053, Titus 5103 to Dalmatia 1149.

4:14 Alexander 223 the coppersmith 5471 did 1731 me much 4183 harm 2556; the Lord 2962 will repay 591 him according 2596 to his deeds 2041.

4:15 Be on guard 5442 against him yourself 4771, for he vigorously 3029 opposed 436 our teaching 3056.

4:16 ¶ At my first 4413 defense 627 no 3762 one 3762 supported 3854 me, but all 3956 deserted 1459 me; may it not be counted 3049 against them.

4:17 But the Lord 2962 stood 3936 with me and strengthened 1743 me, so 2443 that through 1223 me the proclamation 2782 might be fully 4135 accomplished 4135, and that all 3956 the Gentiles 1484 might hear 191; and I was rescued 4506 out of the lion’s 3023 mouth 4750.

4:18 The Lord 2962 will rescue 4506 me from every 3956 evil 4190 deed 2041, and will bring 4982 me safely 4982 to His heavenly 2032 kingdom 932; to Him [be] the glory 1391 forever 165 and ever 165. Amen 281.
