2 Timotius 3:2-3

3:2 For people ¹  will be lovers of themselves, ²  lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3:3 unloving, irreconcilable, slanderers, without self-control, savage, opposed to what is good,

2 Timotius 4:2

4:2 Preach the message, ³  be ready ⁴  whether it is convenient or not, ⁵  reprove, rebuke, exhort ⁶  with complete patience and instruction.

[3:2]  ¹ tn Grk “men”; but here ἄνθρωποι (anqrwpoi) is generic, referring to both men and women.

[3:2]  ² tn Or “self-centered.” The first two traits in 2 Tim 3:2 and the last two in 3:4 are Greek words beginning with the root “lovers of,” and so bracket the list at beginning and end.

[4:2]  ³ tn Or “the word.”

[4:2]  ⁴ tn Or “be persistent.”

[4:2]  ⁵ tn Grk “in season, out of season.”

[4:2]  ⁶ tn Or “encourage.”
