| 3:1 | This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. |
| 3:2 | For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, |
| 3:3 | Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, |
| 3:4 | Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; |
| 3:5 | Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. |
| 3:6 | For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, |
| 3:7 | Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. |
| 3:8 | Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. |
| 3:9 | But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was. |
| 3:10 | But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, charity, patience, |
| 3:11 | Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but out of them all the Lord delivered me. |
| 3:12 | Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. |
| 3:12 | 不但如此、凡立志在基督耶穌裡敬虔度日的、也都要受逼迫。 |
| 3:12 | 不但如此，凡立志在基督耶稣里敬虔度日的，也都要受逼迫。 |
| tit:2:12 | Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; |
| jhn:15:20 | Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also. |
| 1co:4:12 | And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it: |

| 3:13 | But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived. |
| 3:14 | But continue thou in the things which thou hast learned and hast been assured of, knowing of whom thou hast learned them; |
| 3:15 | And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. |
| 3:16 | All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: |
| 3:17 | That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. |
