2 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the congregation* of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: 2 grace to you* and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3 Brethren, we always ought to thank God concerning you*, just-as it is worthy, because your* faith is growing substantially, and the love* of each one of you* all toward one another is increasing; 4 so-that we ourselves boast in you* in the congregations* of God, on behalf of your* endurance and faith in all your* persecutions, and in the afflictions which you* are tolerating. 5 This is an example of the righteous judgment of God; *that* you* may be deemed worthy of the kingdom of God, on behalf of which you* are also suffering; 6 if indeed* it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who are afflicting you*; 7 and to you* who are afflicted with us, a rest at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the messengers of his power, 8 giving vengeance in a fire of flame {i.e. in flaming fire} to those who do not know God and to those who are not obeying* the good-news of our Lord Jesus Christ, 9 who will be suffering-punishment, the sentence of everlasting utter-destruction away from the face of the Lord, and away from the glory of his strength, 10 whenever he comes to be glorified in his holy-ones, and to be marveled at in that day in all those who have believed, (because our testimony to you* was believed). {2Th 1:7-9 & Mat 24:27, 24:29-31 & Mar 13:24-37 & Luk 21:25-28 & Acts 1:11 & 1Th 4:13-17 & 1Co 15:51-15:58 & Rev 1:7 Second Coming.}
11 *For which, we are also always praying concerning you*, in order that our God might deem you* worthy of your* calling, and might fulfill every delight of goodness, and every work of faith in power, 12 *that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ might be glorified in you*, and you* in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
