THE SECOND EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO TIMOTHY 3

Text size

1 This know also that in the last days perilous times shall come ⚑

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves covetous boasters proud blasphemers disobedient to parents unthankful unholy ⚑

3 Without natural affection trucebreakers false accusers incontinent fierce despisers of those that are good ⚑

4 Traitors heady highminded lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God ⚑

5 Having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof from such turn away ⚑

6 For of this sort are they which creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins led away with divers lusts ⚑

7 Ever learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth ⚑

8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses so do these also resist the truth men of corrupt minds reprobate concerning the faith ⚑

9 But they shall proceed no further for their folly shall be manifest unto all men as theirs also was ⚑

10 But thou hast fully known my doctrine manner of life purpose faith longsuffering charity patience ⚑

11 Persecutions afflictions which came unto me at Antioch at Iconium at Lystra what persecutions I endured but out of them all the Lord delivered me ⚑

12 Yea and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution ⚑

13 But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse deceiving and being deceived ⚑

14 But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of knowing of whom thou hast learned them ⚑

15 And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus ⚑

16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine for reproof for correction for instruction in righteousness ⚑

17 That the man of God may be perfect throughly furnished unto all good works ⚑
