1Testificor coram Deo, et Jesu Christo, qui judicaturus est vivos et mortuos, per adventum ipsius, et regnum ejus:
1I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom:
2prædica verbum, insta opportune, importune: argue, obsecra, increpa in omni patientia, et doctrina.
2Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine.
3Erit enim tempus, cum sanam doctrinam non sustinebunt, sed ad sua desideria coacervabunt sibi magistros, prurientes auribus,
3For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears:
4et a veritate quidem auditum avertent, ad fabulas autem convertentur.
4And will indeed turn away their hearing from the truth, but will be turned unto fables.
5Tu vero vigila, in omnibus labora, opus fac evangelistæ, ministerium tuum imple. Sobrius esto.
5But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill thy ministry. Be sober.
6Ego enim jam delibor, et tempus resolutionis meæ instat.
6For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand.
7Bonum certamen certavi, cursum consummavi, fidem servavi.
7I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, 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.
8As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming. Make haste to come to me quickly.
9Demas enim me reliquit, diligens hoc sæculum, et abiit Thessalonicam:
9For Demas hath left me, loving this world, and is gone to Thessalonica:
10Crescens in Galatiam, Titus in Dalmatiam.
10Crescens into Galatia, Titus into Dalmatia.
11Lucas est mecum solus. Marcum assume, et adduc tecum: est enim mihi utilis in ministerium.
11Only Luke is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for he is profitable to me for the ministry.
12Tychicum autem misi Ephesum.
12But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus.
13Penulam, quam reliqui Troade apud Carpum, veniens affer tecum, et libros, maxime autem membranas.
13The cloak that I left at Troas, with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, especially the parchments.
14Alexander ærarius multa mala mihi ostendit: reddet illi Dominus secundum opera ejus:
14Alexander the coppersmith hath done me much evil: the Lord will reward him according to his works:
15quem et tu devita: valde enim restitit verbis nostris.
15Whom do thou also avoid, for he hath greatly withstood our words.
16In prima mea defensione nemo mihi affuit, sed omnes me dereliquerunt: non illis imputetur.
16At my first answer no man stood with me, but all forsook me: may it not be laid to their charge.
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, that by me the preaching may be accomplished, and that all the Gentiles may hear: and I was delivered out of 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.
18The Lord hath delivered me from every evil work: and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
19Saluta Priscam, et Aquilam, et Onesiphori domum.
19Salute Prisca and Aquila, and the household of Onesiphorus.
20Erastus remansit Corinthi. Trophimum autem reliqui infirmum Mileti.
20Erastus remained at Corinth. And Trophimus I left sick at Miletus.
