“The time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on the Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.”

2 Timothy 4:6 – 8
