The King James Version Bible

2 Timothy 4:1-4

  1. I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

  2. Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

  3. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

  4. And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
