Return to Index

Chapter 4

1


 

  I testify before God and Christ Jesus, who is about to judge living and dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom,  

 

 

-

2


 

  proclaim the word; be urgent in season [and] out of season, convict, rebuke, encourage, with all longsuffering and doctrine.  

 

 

-

3


 

  For the time shall be when they will not bear sound teaching; but according to their own lusts will heap up to themselves teachers, having an itching ear;  

 

 

-

4


 

  and they will turn away their ear from the truth, and will have turned aside to fables.  

 

 

-

5


 

  But thou, be sober in all things, bear evils, do [the] work of an evangelist, fill up the full measure of thy ministry.  

 

 

-

6


 

  For I am already being poured out, and the time of my release is come.  

 

 

-

7


 

  I have combated the good combat, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Henceforth the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will render to me in that day; but not only to me, but also to all who love his appearing.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Use diligence to come to me quickly;  

 

 

-

10


 

  for Demas has forsaken me, having loved the present age, and is gone to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Luke alone is with me. Take Mark, and bring [him] with thyself, for he is serviceable to me for ministry.  

 

 

-

12


 

  But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.  

 

 

-

13


 

  The cloak which I left behind [me] in Troas at Carpus's, bring when thou comest, and the books, especially the parchments.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Alexander the smith did many evil things against me. The Lord will render to him according to his works.  

 

 

-

15


 

  Against whom be thou also on thy guard, for he has greatly withstood our words.  

 

 

-

16


 

  At my first defence no man stood with me, but all deserted me. May it not be imputed to them.  

 

 

-

17


 

  But the Lord stood with [me], and gave me power, that through me the proclamation might be fully made, and all [those of] the nations should hear; and I was delivered out of the lion's mouth.  

 

 

-

18


 

  The Lord shall deliver me from every wicked work, and shall preserve [me] for his heavenly kingdom; to whom [be] glory for the ages of ages. Amen.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the house of Onesiphorus.  

 

 

-

20


 

  Erastus remained in Corinth, but Trophimus I left behind in Miletus sick.  

 

 

-

21


 

  Use diligence to come before winter. Eubulus salutes thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and the brethren all.  

 

 

-

22


 

  The Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Grace [be] with you.

Titus 1
