2 Timothy 4:16-18

Preach the Word and Finish the Race

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

16At my first defense, no one stood with me, but everyone deserted me. May it not be charged against them.

17But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message would be fully proclaimed, and all the Gentiles would hear it. So I was delivered from the mouth of the lion.

18And the Lord will rescue me from every evil action and bring me safely into His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
