6 Now the time has come for me to die. My life is like a drink offering being poured out on the altar.
7 I have fought well. I have finished the race, and I have been faithful.
8 So a crown will be given to me for pleasing the Lord. He judges fairly, and on the day of judgment he will give a crown to me and to everyone else who wants him to appear with power.
9 Come to see me as soon as you can.
10 Demas loves the things of this world so much that he left me and went to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus has gone to Dalmatia.
11 Only Luke has stayed with me.Mark can be very helpful to me, so please find him and bring him with you.
12 I sent Tychicus to Ephesus.
