2 Timothy 4:1-4 I charge you before God, and Christ Jesus, Who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His Kingdom,

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ I charge you before God, and Christ Jesus, Who is to judge the living and the dead, and by His appearing and His Kingdom, ² preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. ³ For there will be a time when they will not endure the healthful teaching; but, having itching ears, they will for themselves heap up teachers according to their own desires; ⁴ and will turn away their ears from the truth, and will turn aside to the fables.
