2 Timothy 4:16-18
New English Translation

16 At my first defense no one appeared in my support; instead they all deserted me—may they not be held accountable for it. 17 But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message[a] would be fully proclaimed[b] for all the Gentiles to hear. And so I was delivered from the lion’s mouth! 18 The Lord will deliver me from every evil deed and will bring me safely[c] into his heavenly kingdom. To him[d] be glory for ever and ever![e] Amen.
