4:5You, however, be self-controlled9 in all things, endure hardship, do an evangelist’s work, fulfill your ministry. 4:6For I am already being poured out as an offering, and the time for me to depart10 is at hand. 4:7I have competed well;11 I have finished the race; I have kept the faith!
Footnotes
- 9 Or “sober,” “temperate.”
- 10 Grk “of my departure.”
- 11 The expression I have competed well (Grk “I have competed the good competition”) uses words that may refer to a race or to a boxing or wrestling match: “run the good race” or “fight the good fight.” The similar phrase in 1 Tim 1:18 uses a military picture and is more literally “war the good warfare.”
