[9] Do thy diligence to come shortly unto [10] For Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world, and is departed unto Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus unto Dalmatia. [11] Only Luke with Take Mark, and bring him with thee: for profitable for the ministry. [12] And Tychicus have I sent to Ephesus. [13] The cloke that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments. [14] Alexander the coppersmith did much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works: [15] Of whom thou ware also; for greatly withstood our words. [16] At first answer no man but all men forsook not be laid to their charge. [17] Notwithstanding the Lord stood and strengthened that by the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion. [18] And the Lord shall deliver from every evil work, and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom: to whom be glory for ever Amen.
