2 Timothy 4:2

κήρυξον aor. imper. act. от κηρύσσω (G2784) провозглашать, проповедовать (см. 1 Timothy 2:7). Не "начинай проповедовать" а "пусть проповедь будет твоим главным занятием" (GGBB, 721).
έπίστήθι aor. imper. pass. от έφίστημι (G2186) занимать место, стоять, быть под рукой. В военном деле это слово обозначает стоять на посту, здесь имеется в виду выполнять свое задание; христианский проповедник всегда должен быть готов к выполнению своих обязанностей (Kelly; Guthrie),

άκαίρως (G171) несвоевременно, неудобно; то есть в неподходящее время (BAGD).
έλεγξον aor. imper. act. от έλέγχω (G1651) предъявлять доказательства, убеждать, укорять. Опровергать другого с помощью победоносного оружия истины, и привести противника если не к покаянию, то по меньшей мере к осознанию своей греховности (Trench, Synonyms, 13; TDNT; EDNT).
έπιτίμησον aor. imper. act. от έπιτιμάω (G2008) упрекать. В НЗ используется в знач. запрещать, сурово упрекать (Guthrie; Trench, Synonyms, 13; TDNT).
παρακάλεσον aor. imper. act. от παρακαλέω (G3870) ободрять, увещевать, побуждать, наставлять (см. Romans 12:1).
μακροθυμίςι (G3115) dat. sing. долготерпение, терпеливая выносливость (см. 2 Timothy 3:10).
