*
Use diligence to come to me shortly .
*
For Demas forsook me ,
because he loved the present world ,
and went to Thessalonica ;
Crescens to Galatia ,
Titus to Dalmatia .
*
Only Luke is with me .
Take Mark ,
and bring him with thee ;
for he is useful to me for the ministry .
*
But Tychicus I sent to Ephesus .
*
The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus ,
when thou comest bring with thee ,
and the books ,
especially the parchments .
*
Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil ;
the Lord will reward him according to his works ;
*
of whom do thou also beware ;
for he hath greatly withstood our words .
*
At my first defence no one came forward with me ,
but all forsook me .
May it not be laid to their charge !
*
But the Lord stood by me ,
and strengthened me ,
that the preaching might be fully accomplished by me ,
and that all the gentiles might hear ;
and I was delivered out of the lion
s mouth .
*
The Lord will deliver me from every evil deed ,
and preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom ;
to whom be the glory for ever and ever .
Amen .
