2 Thessalonians

Worrell^{(i) 1} Paul, and Sylvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians, in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: ² grace to you, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. ³ We ought to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because your faith is growing exceedingly, and the love of each one of you abounds toward one another; ⁴ so that we ourselves glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which ye endure; ⁵ a proof of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that ye may be accounted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer; ⁶ since it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to those who cause you tribulation; ⁷ and to you who suffer tribulation, relief with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from Heaven with the angels of His power, in flaming fire, ⁸ awarding vengeance to those who know not God, and to those who obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus; ⁹ who, indeed, shall pay a penalty, eternal destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His might, ¹⁰ when He shall come to be glorified in His saints, and to be marveled at in all who believed (because our testimony to you was believed), in that day. ¹¹ To which end we also pray for you always, that our God may account you worthy of your calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and work of faith, with power; ¹² that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and ye in Him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
