| 1 | I witnesse bifore God and Crist Jhesu, that schal deme the quike and the deed, and bi the comyng of hym, and the kyngdom of hym, |
| 2 | preche the word, be thou bisi couenabli with outen rest, repreue thou, biseche thou, blame thou in al pacience and doctryn. |
| 3 | For tyme schal be, whanne men schulen not suffre hoolsum teching, but at her desiris thei schulen gadere `togidere to hem silf maistris yitchinge to the eeris. |
| 4 | And treuli thei schulen turne awei the heryng fro treuthe, but to fablis thei schulen turne. |
| 5 | But wake thou, in alle thingis traueile thou, do the werk of an euangelist, fulfille thi seruyce, be thou sobre. |
| 6 | For Y am sacrifisid now, and the tyme of my departyng is nyy. |
| 7 | Y haue stryuun a good strijf, Y haue endid the cours, Y haue kept the feith. |
| 8 | In `the tothir tyme a coroun of riytwisnesse is kept to me, which the Lord, a iust domesman, schal yelde to me in that dai; and not oneli to me, but also to these that louen his comyng. |
| 9 | Hyye thou to come to me soone. For Demas, louynge this world, hath forsakun me, and wente to Tessalonyk, |
| 10 | Crescens in to Galathi, Tite in to Dalmacie; |
| 11 | Luk aloone is with me. Take thou Mark, and brynge with thee; for he is profitable to me in to seruyce. |
| 12 | Forsothe Y sente Titicus to Effesi. |
| 13 | The cloth which Y lefte at Troade at Carpe, whanne thou comest, bringe with thee, and the bookis, but moost parchemyne. |
| 14 | Alisaundre, the tresorer, schewide to me myche yuele; `the Lord schal yelde to hym aftir his werkis. |
| 15 | Whom also thou eschewe; for he ayenstood ful greetli oure wordis. |
| 16 | In my firste defence no man helpide me, but alle forsoken me; be it not arettid to hem. |
| 17 | But the Lord helpide me, and coumfortide me, that the preching be fillid bi me, and that alle folkis here, that Y am delyueride fro the mouth of the lioun. |
| 18 | And the Lord delyueride me fro al yuel werk, and schal make me saaf in to his heuenly kingdom, to whom be glorie in to worldis of worldis. |
| 19 | Amen. Grete wel Prisca, and Aquila, and the hous of Oneseforus. |
| 20 | Erastus lefte at Corynthi, and Y lefte Trofymus sijk at Mylete. |
| 21 | Hiye thou to come bifore wyntir. Eubolus, and Prudent, and Lynus, and Claudia, and alle britheren, greten thee wel. |
| 22 | Oure Lord Jhesu Crist be with thi spirit. The grace of God be with you. Amen. |
