2 Timothy 4:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ But you yourself must continue to think seriously and clearly. Be patient and brave when troubles come. Continue to tell the good news about Christ to people. Do all the work that God has given you to do as his servant.

⁶ As for me, it is nearly time for me to die. My death will be like a drink offering that they pour out to God. My life as God's servant will end.^{[a] 7} I have worked to serve Christ well. I have finished everything that God wanted me to do. I am like a runner who has run to the end of the race. I have continued to believe God's true message.
