MKJV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Therefore I solemnly witness before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is going to judge the living and the dead according to His appearance and His kingdom, ² preach the Word, be instant in season and out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long-suffering and doctrine. ³ For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but they will heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear. ⁴ And they will turn away their ears from the truth and will be turned to myths. ⁵ But you watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry.
