2 Timothy 4:16-18

Modern English Version

¹⁶ At my first defense no one stood with me, but everyone forsook me. May it not be charged against them. ¹⁷ But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, so that through me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear. And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. ¹⁸ The Lord will deliver me from every evil work and will preserve me for His heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.
