But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come.
2 ⲃ̅ ⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲙⲙⲁⲓ ⲡⲉⲩⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⲙⲙⲁⲓ ϩⲟⲙⲛⲧ ⲛⲃⲁⲃⲉ ⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲛϫⲁⲥⲓϩⲏⲧ ⲛϫⲁⲧ ⲟⲩⲁ ⲉⲛⲥⲉⲥⲱⲧⲙ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲉⲩⲉⲓⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲁⲧϣⲡϩⲙⲟⲧ ⲉⲩϫⲁϩⲙ
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,
traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,
holding a form of godliness but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also.
6 ⲋ̅ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲅⲁⲣ ϩⲛ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲏ ⲉϣⲁⲩⲟϣⲟⲩ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲛⲏⲉⲓ ⲉⲩⲁⲓⲭⲙⲁⲗⲱⲧⲓⲍⲉ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲥϩⲓⲙⲉ ⲉⲩⲃⲏⲗ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲛⲟⲃⲉ ⲉⲩⲃⲏⲕ ϩⲛ ϩⲉⲛⲉⲡⲓⲑⲩⲙⲓⲁ ⲉⲩϣⲟⲃⲉ
For some of these are people who creep into houses and take captive gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
8 ⲏ̅ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲓⲁⲛⲛⲏⲥ ⲙⲛ ⲓⲁⲙⲃⲣⲏⲥ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲙⲱⲩⲥⲏⲥ ⲧⲁⲓ ⲧⲉ ⲑⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲓⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ⲉⲩϯ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲧⲙⲉ ϩⲉⲛⲣⲱⲙⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲡⲉⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲧⲁⲕⲏⲩⲧ ⲛϫⲟⲟⲩⲧ ϩⲛ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ
Even as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these also oppose the truth, men corrupted in mind, who concerning the faith are rejected.
9 ⲑ̅ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⲛⲥⲉⲛⲁⲡⲣⲟⲕⲟⲡⲧⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲙⲁⲧⲉ ⲧⲉⲩⲙⲛⲧⲁⲧⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲛⲓⲙ ⲛⲑⲉ ⲉⲛⲧⲁⲧⲁ ⲛⲓⲕⲟⲟⲩⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲉⲥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ
But they will proceed no further. For their folly will be evident to all men, as theirs also came to be.
But you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness,

persecutions, and sufferings—those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all.
Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Messiah Yeshua will suffer persecution.
But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
But you remain in the things which you have learnt and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learnt them.
15 ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ ⲁⲩⲱ ϫⲉ ϫⲓⲛⲉⲕⲥⲟⲃⲕ ⲕⲥⲟⲟⲩⲛ ⲛϩⲉⲛⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲩⲛ ϭⲟⲙ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲥⲁⲃⲟⲕ ⲉⲡⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϩⲓⲧⲛ ⲧⲡⲓⲥⲧⲓⲥ ϩⲙ ⲡⲉⲭⲥ ⲓⲏⲥ
From infancy, you have known the holy Scriptures which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Messiah Yeshua.
Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,
that each person who belongs to God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
