For
I am even now ready to be sacrificed: and the time of my dissolution
is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I
have kept the faith. As to the rest, there is laid up for me a crown
of justice, which the Lord the just judge will render to me in that
day: and not only to me, but to them also that love his coming.

Timothy 4: 6 - 8
