2Timothy:3

* But know this , that in the last days grievous times will be upon us . * For men will be lovers of themselves , lovers of money , braggarts , arrogant , blasphemers , disobedient to parents , unthankful , unholy , * without natural feeling , unyielding , slanderers , without self-control , savage , haters of good , * betrayers , reckless , puffed up , lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God , * having a form of godliness , but denying the power of it ; even turn away from these . * For of these are those creeping into houses and leading silly women captive , the ones having been heaped with sins , being led away by various lusts , * always learning , but never being able to come to a full knowledge of the truth . * But in the way Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses , so also these withstand the truth , men having been corrupted in mind , found worthless as to the faith . * But they will not go further , for their foolishness will be plain to all , as also that of those became . * But you have closely followed my doctrine , the conduct , the purpose , the faith , the long-suffering , the love , the patient endurance , * the persecutions , the sufferings , such as happened to me in Antioch , in Iconium , in Lystra , what persecutions I bore . And the Lord delivered me out of all . * And , indeed , all desiring to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted . * But evil men and pretenders will go forward to worse , leading astray and being led astray . * But you keep on in what you learned and were assured of , knowing from whom you learned , * and that from a babe you know the Holy Scriptures , those being able to make you wise to salvation through belief in Christ Jesus . * Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for doctrine , for reproof , for correction , for instruction in righteousness , * so that the man of God may be perfected , fully furnished for every good work .
