2 Timothy 3 :: New English Translation (NET)

"Difficult Times Will Come"

2Ti 3:1But understand this, that in the last days difficult times will come.

2Ti 3:2For people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,

2Ti 3:3

2Ti 3:3unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, opposed to what is good,

2Ti 3:4

2Ti 3:4treacherous, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God.

2Ti 3:5

2Ti 3:5They will maintain the outward appearance of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these.

2Ti 3:6

2Ti 3:6For some of these insinuate themselves into households and captivate weak women who are overwhelmed with sins and led along by various passions.

2Ti 3:7

2Ti 3:7Such women are always seeking instruction, yet never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.

2Ti 3:8

2Ti 3:8And just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these people - who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faith - also oppose the truth.

2Ti 3:9

2Ti 3:9But they will not go much further, for their foolishness will be obvious to everyone, just like it was with Jannes and Jambres.

2Ti 3:10

2Ti 3:10You, however, have followed my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,

2Ti 3:11

2Ti 3:11as well as the persecutions and sufferings that happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, and in Lystra. I endured these persecutions and the Lord delivered me from them all.

2Ti 3:12

2Ti 3:12Now in fact all who want to live godly lives in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.

2Ti 3:13

2Ti 3:13But evil people and charlatans will go from bad to worse, deceiving others and being deceived themselves.

2Ti 3:14

2Ti 3:14You, however, must continue in the things you have learned and are confident about. You know who taught you

2Ti 3:15

2Ti 3:15and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.

2Ti 3:16

2Ti 3:16Every scripture is inspired by God and useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

2Ti 3:17

2Ti 3:17that the person dedicated to God may be capable and equipped for every good work.
