2 Timothy 4:1-6

YLT

NIV

1 I do fully testify, then, before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is about to judge living and dead at his manifestation and his reign --
1 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of his appearing and his kingdom, I give you this charge:
2 preach the word; be earnest in season, out of season, convict, rebuke, exhort, in all long-suffering and teaching,
2 Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.
3 for there shall be a season when the sound teaching they will not suffer, but according to their own desires to themselves they shall heap up teachers -- itching in the hearing,
3 For the time will come when people will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear.
4 and indeed, from the truth the hearing they shall turn away, and to the fables they shall be turned aside.
4 They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.
5 And thou -- watch in all things; suffer evil; do the work of one proclaiming good news; of thy ministration make full assurance,
5 But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.
6 for I am already being poured out, and the time of my release hath arrived;
6 For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near.
