2 Thessalonians 2:3-12

Murdock(i) 3 Let no one deceive you in any way; because that day will not come, unless there previously come a defection, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4 who is an opposer, and exalteth himself above all that is called God and Worshipful; so that he also sitteth in the temple of God, as a God, and displayeth himself, as if he were God. 5 Do ye not remember, that, when I was with you, I told you these things? 6 And now, ye know what hindereth his being manifested in his time. 7 For the mystery of the evil One already beginneth to be operative: and only, if that which now hindereth shall be taken from the midst; 8 then at length will that evil One be revealed; whom our Lord Jesus will consume by the breath of his mouth, and will bring to naught by the visibility of his advent. 9 For the coming of that evil One, is the working of Satan, with all power, and signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all the deceptiveness of iniquity, in them that perish; because they did not receive the love of the truth, by which they might have life. 11 Therefore God will send upon them the operation of deception, that they may believe a lie; 12 and that they all may be condemned, who believe not the truth, but have pleasure in iniquity.
