1 - But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come.

2 - For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, railers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 - without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good,

4 - traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God;

5 - holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof: from these also turn away.

6 - For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts,

7 - ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.

8 - And even as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth; men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith.

9 - But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be.

10 - But thou didst follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,

11 - persecutions, sufferings; what things befell me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: and out of them all the Lord delivered me.

12 - Yea, and all that would live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

13 - But evil men and impostors shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.

14 - But abide thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them;

15 - and that from a babe thou hast known the sacred writings which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 - Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness:

17 - that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.
