2 Timothy 4: 10 - 17
|
| 10
|
For Demas, in love with this present world, has deserted me and gone to Thessaloni'ca; Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia.
|
| 11
|
Luke alone is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you; for he is very useful in serving me.
|
| 12
|
Tych'icus I have sent to Ephesus.
|
| 13
|
When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Tro'as, also the books, and above all the parchments.
|
| 14
|
Alexander the coppersmith did me great harm; the Lord will requite him for his deeds.
|
| 15
|
Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message.
|
| 16
|
At my first defense no one took my part; all deserted me. May it not be charged against them!
|
| 17
|
But the Lord stood by me and gave me strength to proclaim the message fully, that all the Gentiles might hear it. So I was rescued from the lion's mouth.
