⁹ ·Do your best [Make every effort; Be diligent] to come to me as soon as you can, ¹⁰ because Demas [Col. 4:14; Philem. 24], who loved this ·world [^Lpresent age], ·left [deserted] me and went to Thessalonica [^Ca city in Macedonia, present-day northern Greece; 1 Thess. 1:1; 2 Thess. 2:1]. Crescens went to Galatia [^Ca Roman province in present-day central Turkey; Gal. 1:2], and Titus [2 Cor. 2:13; Gal. 2:1–3; Titus 1:1] went to Dalmatia [^Ca Roman province, mostly in present-day Croatia]. ¹¹ Luke [Col. 4:14; Philem. 24] is the only one still with me. Get Mark [Acts 12:25; 13:13; 15:37–39; Col. 4:10] and bring him with you when you come, because he can help me in my work here.
