| II Timothy 3: (YLT) |
| 1) And this know thou, that in the last days there shall come perilous times, |
| 2) for men shall be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, evil-speakers, to parents disobedient, unthankful, unkind, |
| 3) without natural affection, implacable, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, not lovers of those who are good, |
| 4) traitors, heady, lofty, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, |
| 5) having a form of piety, and its power having denied; and from these be turning away, |
| 6) for of these there are those coming into the houses and leading captive the silly women, laden with sins, led away with desires manifold, |
| 7) always learning, and never to a knowledge of truth able to come, |
| 8) and, even as Jannes and Jambres stood against Moses, so also these do stand against the truth, men corrupted in mind, disapproved concerning the faith; |
| 9) but they shall not advance any further, for their folly shall be manifest to all, as theirs also did become. |
| 10) And thou -- thou hast followed after my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance, |
| 11) the persecutions, the afflictions, that befell me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of all the Lord did deliver me, |
| 12) and all also who will to live piously in Christ Jesus shall be persecuted, |
| 13) and evil men and impostors shall advance to the worse, leading astray and being led astray. |
| 14) And thou -- be remaining in the things which thou didst learn and wast entrusted with, having known from whom thou didst learn, |
| 15) and because from a babe the Holy Writings thou hast known, which are able to make thee wise -- to salvation, through faith that [is] in Christ Jesus; |
| 16) every Writing [is] God-breathed, and profitable for teaching, for conviction, for setting aright, for instruction that [is] in righteousness, |
| 17) that the man of God may be fitted -- for every good work having been completed. |
