PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 διαμαρτυρομαι ουν εγω ενωπιον του θεου και του κυριου ιησου χριστου, του μελλοντος κρινειν ζωντας και νεκρους κατα την επιφανειαν αυτου και την βασιλειαν αυτου,
1 Διαμαρτύρομαι οὖν ἐγὼ ἐνώπιον τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τοῦ Κυρίου Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, τοῦ μέλλοντος κρίνειν ζῶντας καὶ νεκροὺς κατὰ τὴν ἐπιφάνειαν αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ,
2 κηρυξον τον λογον, επιστηθι ευκαιρως ακαιρως, ελεγξον, επιτιμησον, παρακαλεσον, εν παση μακροθυμια και διδαχη.
2 κήρυξον τὸν λόγον, ἐπίστηθι εὐκαίρως ἀκαίρως, ἔλεγξον, ἐπιτίμησον, παρακάλεσον, ἐν πάσῃ μακροθυμίᾳ καὶ διδαχῇ.
3 εσται γαρ καιρος οτε της υγιαινουσης διδασκαλιας ουκ ανεξονται, αλλα κατα τας επιθυμιας τας ιδιας εαυτοις επισωρευσουσιν διδασκαλους κνηθομενοι την ακοην,
3 ἔσται γὰρ καιρὸς ὅτε τῆς ὑγιαινούσης διδασκαλίας οὐκ ἀνέξονται, ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὰς ἐπιθυμίας τὰς ἰδίας ἑαυτοῖς ἐπισωρεύσουσι διδασκάλους κνηθόμενοι τὴν ἀκοήν,
4 και απο μεν της αληθειας την ακοην αποστρεψουσιν, επι δε τους μυθους εκτραπησονται.
4 καὶ ἀπὸ μὲν τῆς ἀληθείας τὴν ἀκοὴν ἀποστρέψουσιν, ἐπὶ δὲ τοὺς μύθους ἐκτραπήσονται.
5 συ δε νηφε εν πασιν, κακοπαθησον, εργον ποιησον ευαγγελιστου, την διακονιαν σου πληροφορησον.
5 σὺ δὲ νῆφε ἐν πᾶσι, κακοπάθησον, ἔργον ποίησον εὐαγγελιστοῦ, τὴν διακονίαν σου πληροφόρησον.
6 εγω γαρ ηδη σπενδομαι, και ο καιρος της εμης αναλυσεως εφεστηκεν.
6 ἐγὼ γὰρ ἤδη σπένδομαι, καὶ ὁ καιρὸς τῆς ἐμῆς ἀναλύσεως ἐφέστηκε.
7 τον αγωνα τον καλον ηγωνισμαι, τον δρομον τετελεκα, την πιστιν τετηρηκα·
7 τὸν ἀγῶνα τὸν καλὸν ἠγώνισμαι, τὸν δρόμον τετέλεκα, τὴν πίστιν τετήρηκα·
8 λοιπον αποκειται μοι ο της δικαιοσυνης στεφανος, ον αποδωσει μοι ο κυριος εν εκεινη τη ημερα, ο δικαιος κριτης, ου μονον δε εμοι, αλλα και πασιν τοις ηγαπηκοσιν την επιφανειαν αυτου.
8 λοιπὸν ἀπόκειταί μοι ὁ τῆς δικαιοσύνης στέφανος, ὃν ἀποδώσει μοι ὁ Κύριος ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ, ὁ δίκαιος κριτής, οὐ μόνον δὲ ἐμοί, ἀλλὰ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἠγαπηκόσι τὴν ἐπιφάνειαν αὐτοῦ.
9 σπουδασον ελθειν προς με ταχεως·
9 Σπούδασον ἐλθεῖν πρός με ταχέως·
10 δημας γαρ με εγκατελιπεν αγαπησας τον νυν αιωνα, και επορευθη εις θεσσαλονικην, κρησκης εις γαλατιαν, τιτος εις δαλματιαν·
10 Δημᾶς γάρ με ἐγκατέλιπεν ἀγαπήσας τὸν νῦν αἰῶνα, καὶ ἐπορεύθη εἰς Θεσσαλονίκην, Κρήσκης εἰς Γαλατίαν, Τίτος εἰς Δαλματίαν·
11 λουκας εστιν μονος μετ εμου. μαρκον αναλαβων αγε μετα σεαυτου· εστιν γαρ μοι ευχρηστος εις διακονιαν.
11 Λουκᾶς ἐστι μόνος μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ. Μᾶρκον ἀναλαβὼν ἄγε μετὰ σεαυτοῦ· ἔστι γάρ μοι εὔχρηστος εἰς διακονίαν.
12 τυχικον δε απεστειλα εις εφεσον.
12 Τυχικὸν δὲ ἀπέστειλα εἰς Ἔφεσον.
13 τον φαιλονην, ον απελιπον εν τρωαδι παρα καρπω, ερχομενος φερε, και τα βιβλια, μαλιστα τας μεμβρανας.
13 τὸν φαιλόνην, ὃν ἀπέλιπον ἐν Τρῳάδι παρὰ Κάρπῳ, ἐρχόμενος φέρε, καὶ τὰ βιβλία, μάλιστα τὰς μεμβράνας.
14 αλεξανδρος ο χαλκευς πολλα μοι κακα ενεδειξατο· αποδωη αυτω ο κυριος κατα τα εργα αυτου·
14 Ἀλέξανδρος ὁ χαλκεὺς πολλά μοι κακὰ ἐνεδείξατο· ἀποδῴη αὐτῷ ὁ Κύριος κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ·
15 ον και συ φυλασσου· λιαν γαρ ανθεστηκεν τοις ημετεροις λογοις.
15 ὃν καὶ σὺ φυλάσσου· λίαν γὰρ ἀνθέστηκε τοῖς ἡμετέροις λόγοις.
16 εν τη πρωτη μου απολογια ουδεις μοι συμπαρεγενετο, αλλα παντες με εγκατελιπον· μη αυτοις λογισθειη·
16 Ἐν τῇ πρώτῃ μου ἀπολογίᾳ οὐδείς μοι συμπαρεγένετο, ἀλλὰ πάντες με ἐγκατέλιπον· μὴ αὐτοῖς λογισθείη·
17 ο δε κυριος μοι παρεστη και ενεδυναμωσεν με, ινα δι εμου το κηρυγμα πληροφορηθη και ακουση παντα τα εθνη· και ερρυσθην εκ στοματος λεοντος.
17 ὁ δὲ Κύριός μοι παρέστη καὶ ἐνεδυνάμωσέ με, ἵνα δι᾽ ἐμοῦ τὸ κήρυγμα πληροφορηθῇ καὶ ἀκούσῃ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη· καὶ ἐρρύσθην ἐκ στόματος λέοντος.
18 και ρυσεται με ο κυριος απο παντος εργου πονηρου και σωσει εις την βασιλειαν αυτου την επουρανιον· ω η δοξα εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων· αμην.
18 καὶ ῥύσεταί με ὁ Κύριος ἀπὸ παντὸς ἔργου πονηροῦ καὶ σώσει εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν αὐτοῦ τὴν ἐπουράνιον· ᾧ ἡ δόξα εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.
19 ασπασαι πρισκαν και ακυλαν και τον ονησιφορου οικον.
19 Ἄσπασαι Πρίσκαν καὶ Ἀκύλαν καὶ τὸν Ὀνησιφόρου οἶκον.
20 εραστος εμεινεν εν κορινθω, τροφιμον δε απελιπον εν μιλητω ασθενουντα.
20 Ἔραστος ἔμεινεν ἐν Κορίνθῳ, Τρόφιμον δὲ ἀπέλιπον ἐν Μιλήτῳ ἀσθενοῦντα.
21 σπουδασον προ χειμωνος ελθειν. ασπαζεται σε ευβουλος και πουδης και λινος και κλαυδια και οι αδελφοι παντες.
21 σπούδασον πρὸ χειμῶνος ἐλθεῖν. Ἀσπάζεταί σε Εὔβουλος καὶ Πούδης καὶ Λίνος καὶ Κλαυδία καὶ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ πάντες.
22 ο κυριος ιησους χριστος μετα του πνευματος σου. η χαρις μεθ υμων· αμην.
22 Ὁ Κύριος Ἰησοῦς Χριστὸς μετὰ τοῦ πνεύματός σου. Ἡ χάρις μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary 4:9 John Chrysostom, Homilies on Second Timothy (Homily X)

    It is worth while to enquire why he calls Timothy to him, inasmuch as he was intrusted with a Church, and a whole nation. It was not from arrogance.

For these fruits are due to those who minister spiritual doctrine, through their understanding of …

  4. Quotes verse 4:2 John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew (Homily XXIII)

    How then doth He say elsewhere, "Reprove, rebuke, exhort," and, "Them that sin rebuke before all?" And Christ too to Peter, "Go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone," and if he neglect to hear, add to thyself another also; and if not even so doth he yield, declare it to the church likewise?" And how hath …
