1 - This know also, that in the last days perilous times will come.

2 - For men will be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 - Without natural affection, truce-breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 - Traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 - Having a form of godliness, but denying its power: from such turn away.

6 - For of this sort are they who creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts;

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

8 - Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.

9 - But they shall proceed no further: for their folly will be manifest to all [men], as theirs also was.

10 - But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, charity, patience,

11 - Persecutions, afflictions which came to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of [them] all the Lord delivered me.

12 - And all indeed that will live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution.

13 - But evil men and seducers will become worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

14 - But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing from whom thou hast learned [them];

15 - And that from a child thou hast known the sacred scriptures, which are able to make thee wise to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

16 - All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

17 - That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished to all good works.
