2 Timothy 3:2

3:2 For people ¹  will be lovers of themselves, ²  lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy,

2 Timothy 3:5

3:5 They will maintain the outward appearance ³  of religion but will have repudiated its power. So avoid people like these. ⁴ 

¹ tn Grk “men”; but here ἄνθρωποι (anqrwpoi) is generic, referring to both men and women.

² tn Or “self-centered.” The first two traits in 2 Tim 3:2 and the last two in 3:4 are Greek words beginning with the root “lovers of,” and so bracket the list at beginning and end.

³ tn Or “form.”

⁴ tn Grk “and avoid these,” with the word “people” implied.
