2 Timothy 4:1-4

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 I solemnly charge you before God and the Messiah Yeshua, who will judge the living and the dead when he appears and establishes his Kingdom:

2 proclaim the Word! Be on hand with it whether the time seems right or not. Convict, censure and exhort with unfailing patience and with teaching.

3 For the time is coming when people will not have patience for sound teaching, but will cater to their passions and gather around themselves teachers who say whatever their ears itch to hear.

4 Yes, they will stop listening to the truth, but will turn aside to follow myths.

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 I give you orders, before God and Christ Jesus, who will be the judge of the living and the dead, and by his revelation and his kingdom;

2 Be preaching the word at all times, in every place; make protests, say sharp words, give comfort, with long waiting and teaching;

3 For the time will come when they will not take the true teaching; but, moved by their desires, they will get for themselves a great number of teachers for the pleasure of hearing them;

4 And shutting their ears to what is true, will be turned away to belief in foolish stories.
