‏ 2 Timothy 4:1

 I charge thee ( διαμαρτυρομα ). Rather, "I testify." See 1Th 4:6. See 1Ti 5:21 for this verb and appeal to God and Christ.

 Who shall judge ( του μελλοντος κρινειν ). "The one going or about to judge" (regular idiom with  μελλω ). The quick and the dead ( ζωντας κα νεκρους ). "Living and dead." See 1Th 4:16f.

 And by his appearing ( κα την επιφανειαν ). Accusative of conjuration (verbs of swearing), after  διαμαρτυρομα as is  βασιλειαν (by his kingdom). See 1Th 5:27. For  επιφανειαν, see 1:10; Tit 2:13; 1Ti 6:14; 2Th 2:8.
