提摩太后书 3

末世的情况

1 你应当知道，末后的日子必有艰难的时期来到。2 那时，人会专爱自己、贪爱钱财、自夸、高傲、亵渎、悖逆父母、忘恩负义、不圣洁、3 没有亲情、不肯和解、恶言中伤、不能自律、横蛮兇暴、不爱良善、4 卖主卖友、容易冲动、傲慢自大、爱享乐过于爱 神，5 有敬虔的形式，却否定敬虔的能力；这些人你应当避开。6 他们中间有人潜入别人的家里，操纵无知的妇女。这些妇女被罪压住，又被各种私慾拖累，7 虽然常常学习，总不能充分明白真理。8 从前阎儡和阎悖怎样反对摩西，这些人也怎样反对真理。他们的心思败坏，信仰也经不起考验。9 然而他们不能再这样下去了，因为他们的愚昧终必在众人面前显露出来，好像那两个人一样。
圣经都是 神默示的10 但是，你已经了解我的教训、品行、志向、信心、宽容、爱心和忍耐，11 以及我在安提阿、以哥念、路司得所受的苦和迫害。我所忍受的是怎样的迫害；这一切主都救我脱离了。12 其实，所有立志在基督耶稣里过敬虔生活的，都必遭受迫害。13 但恶人和骗子必越来越坏，他们欺骗人，也必受欺骗。14 你应当遵守所学和确信的；你知道是跟谁学的，15 并且知道自己从小就明白圣经，这圣经能够使你有智慧，可以因信基督耶稣得着救恩。16 全部圣经都是 神所默示的，在教训、责备、矫正和公义的训练各方面，都是有益的，17 为要使属 神的人装备好，可以完成各样的善工。

Ministry in the Last Days

1 But understand this, that in the last days difficultt times will come.2 For peoplet will be lovers of themselves,t lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,3 unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, opposed to what is good,4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, loving pleasure rather than loving God.5 They will maintain the outward appearancets of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these.t6 For some of these insinuate themselvest into households and captivate weak woment who are overwhelmed with sins and led along by various passions.7 Such women are always seeking instruction,t yet never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.8 And just as Jannes and Jambress opposed Moses, so these people – who have warped minds and are disqualified in the faitht – also oppose the truth.

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

Continue in What You Have Learned

10 You, however,s have followed my teaching, myt way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,11 as well as the persecutions and sufferingst that happened to me in Antioch,s in Iconium, and in Lystra.ss I endured these persecutions and the Lord delivered me from them all.12 Now in fact all who want to live godly lives in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.13 But evil people and charlatans will go from bad to worse,t deceiving others and being deceived themselves.t14 You, however, must continuet in the things you have learned and are confident about. You knowt who taught yout15 and how from infancy you have known the holy writings, which are able to give you wisdom for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.16 Every scripturets is inspired by Gods and useful for teaching, for reproof,t for correction, and for training in righteousness,

17 that the person dedicated to Godt may be capablet and equipped for every good work.
