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

Opposition in the Last Days
1But understand this, that in the last days hard times will come—
2for people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,
3hardhearted, unforgiving, backbiting, without self-control, brutal, hating what is good,
4treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
5holding to an outward form of godliness but denying its power. Avoid these people!
6For among these are those who slip into households and deceive weak women weighed down with sins, led away by various desires,
7always learning yet never able to come to the knowledge of truth.
8Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so do these people oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind and worthless concerning the faith.
9But these people will not make any more progress—for their folly, like that of Jannes and Jambres, will be obvious to everyone.
10You, however, closely followed my teaching, manner of life, purpose, faithfulness, patience, love, perseverance—
11as well as persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. What persecutions I endured! And the Lord rescued me from them all!
12Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted.
13But evil men and imposters will go from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
All Scripture Equips God’s People
14You, however, continue in what you have learned and what you have become convinced of. For you know from whom you have learned,
15and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to make you wise, leading to salvation through trusting in Messiah Yeshua.
16All Scripture is inspired by God and useful for teaching, for reproof, for restoration, and for training in righteousness,
17so that the person belonging to God may be capable, fully equipped for every good deed.
