2 Timothy 4:5-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill thy ministry. Be sober.

⁶ For I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution is at hand.

⁷ I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.

⁸ As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming. Make haste to come to me quickly.
