Berean Standard Bible
1Testificor coram Deo, et Jesu Christo, qui judicaturus est vivos et mortuos, per adventum ipsius, et regnum ejus:
1I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His kingdom:
2prædica verbum, insta opportune, importune: argue, obsecra, increpa in omni patientia, et doctrina.
2Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and encourage with every form of patient instruction.
3Erit enim tempus, cum sanam doctrinam non sustinebunt, sed ad sua desideria coacervabunt sibi magistros, prurientes auribus,
3For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires.
4et a veritate quidem auditum avertent, ad fabulas autem convertentur.
4So they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
5Tu vero vigila, in omnibus labora, opus fac evangelistæ, ministerium tuum imple. Sobrius esto.
5But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.
6Ego enim jam delibor, et tempus resolutionis meæ instat.
6For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand.
7Bonum certamen certavi, cursum consummavi, fidem servavi.
7I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
8In reliquo reposita est mihi corona justitiæ, quam reddet mihi Dominus in illa die, justus judex: non solum autem mihi, sed et iis, qui diligunt adventum ejus. Festina ad me venire cito.
8From now on there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but to all who crave His appearing.
9Demas enim me reliquit, diligens hoc sæculum, et abiit Thessalonicam:
9Make every effort to come to me quickly,
10Crescens in Galatiam, Titus in Dalmatiam.
10because Demas, in his love of this world, has deserted me and gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.
11Lucas est mecum solus. Marcum assume, et adduc tecum: est enim mihi utilis in ministerium.
11Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is useful to me in the ministry.
12Tychicum autem misi Ephesum.
12Tychicus, however, I have sent to Ephesus.
13Penulam, quam reliqui Troade apud Carpum, veniens affer tecum, et libros, maxime autem membranas.
13When you come, bring the cloak that I left with Carpus at Troas, and my scrolls, especially the parchments.
14Alexander ærarius multa mala mihi ostendit: reddet illi Dominus secundum opera ejus:
14Alexander the coppersmith did great harm to me. The Lord will repay him according to his deeds.
15quem et tu devita: valde enim restitit verbis nostris.
15You too should beware of him, for he has vigorously opposed our message.
16In prima mea defensione nemo mihi affuit, sed omnes me dereliquerunt: non illis imputetur.
16At my first defense, no one stood with me, but everyone deserted me. May it not be charged against them.
17Dominus autem mihi astitit, et confortavit me, ut per me prædicatio impleatur, et audiant omnes gentes: et liberatus sum de ore leonis.
17But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message would be fully proclaimed, and all the Gentiles would hear it. So I was delivered from the mouth of the lion.
18Liberavit me Dominus ab omni opere malo: et salvum faciet in regnum suum cæleste, cui gloria in sæcula sæculorum. Amen.
18And the Lord will rescue me from every evil action and bring me safely into His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
19Saluta Priscam, et Aquilam, et Onesiphori domum.
19Greet Prisca and Aquila, as well as the household of Onesiphorus.
20Erastus remansit Corinthi. Trophimum autem reliqui infirmum Mileti.
20Erastus has remained at Corinth, and Trophimus I left sick in Miletus.
21Festina ante hiemem venire. Salutant te Eubulus, et Pudens, et Linus, et Claudia, et fratres omnes.
21Make every effort to come to me before winter. Eubulus sends you greetings, as do Pudens, Linus, Claudia, and all the brothers.
22Dominus Jesus Christus cum spiritu tuo. Gratia vobiscum. Amen.
22The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you all.
