3Here is what I want you to know. There will be terrible times in the last days. ²People will love themselves. They will love money. They will brag and be proud. They will tear others down. They will not obey their parents. They won’t be thankful or holy. ³They won’t love others. They won’t forgive others. They will tell lies about people. They will be out of control. They will be wild. They will hate what is good.

⁴They will turn against their friends. They will act without thinking. They will think they are better than others. They will love what pleases them instead of loving God.
