2 Timothy 4:4-6

Contemporary English Version

⁴ They will turn from the truth and eagerly listen to senseless stories. ⁵ But you must stay calm and be willing to suffer. You must work hard, telling the good news and to do your job well.

⁶ Now the time has come for me to die. My life is like a drink offering^[a] being poured out on the altar.
