2 Timotius 4:9-12

Travel Plans and Concluding Greetings

4:9 Make every effort to come to me soon. 4:10 For Demas deserted me, since he loved ¹  the present age, and he went to Thessalonica. ²  Crescens went to Galatia and Titus to Dalmatia. 4:11 Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and bring him with you, because he is a great help ³  to me in ministry. ⁴  4:12 Now I have sent Tychicus to Ephesus. ⁵
