2 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul certifieth them of the good opinion which he had of their faith, love, and patience: 11 and therewithal useth divers reasons for the comforting of them in persecution, whereof the chiefest is taken from the righteous judgment of God.
1:1
Paul 3972 and Silvanus 4610 and Timothy 5095, ¶ To the church 1577 of the Thessalonians 2331 in God 2316 our Father 3962 and the Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547:
1:2
Grace 5485 to you and peace 1515 from God 2316 the Father 3962 and the Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547.
1:3
¶ We ought 3784 always 3842 to give 2168 thanks 2168 to God 2316 for you, brethren 80, as is [only] fitting 514, because 3754 your faith 4102 is greatly 5232 enlarged 5232, and the love 26 of each 1538 one 1520 of you toward 1519 one 240 another 240 grows 4121 [ever] greater 4121;
1:4
therefore 5620, we ourselves 846 speak 1461a proudly 1461a of you among 1722 the churches 1577 of God 2316 for your perseverance 5281 and faith 4102 in the midst of all 3956 your persecutions 1375 and afflictions 2347 which 3739 you endure 430.
1:5
[This is] a plain 1730 indication 1730 of God’s 2316 righteous 1342 judgment 2920 so 1519 that you will be considered 2661 worthy 2661 of the kingdom 932 of God 2316, for which 3739 indeed 2532 you are suffering 3958.
1:6
For after 1512 all 1512 it is [only] just 1342 for God 2316 to repay 467 with affliction 2347 those 3588 who afflict 2346 you,
1:7
and [to give] relief 425 to you who are afflicted 2346 and to us as well when 1722 the Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 will be revealed 602 from heaven 3772 with His mighty 1411 angels 32a in flaming 5395 fire 4442,
1:8
dealing 1325 out retribution 1557 to those 3588 who do not know 3609a God 2316 and to those 3588 who do not obey 5219 the gospel 2098 of our Lord 2962 Jesus 2424.
1:9
These 3748 will pay 5099 the penalty 1349 of eternal 166 destruction 3639, away 575 from the presence 4383 of the Lord 2962 and from the glory 1391 of His power 2479,
1:10
when 3752 He comes 2064 to be glorified 1740 in His saints 40 on that day 2250, and to be marveled 2296 at among 1722 all 3956 who have believed 4100—for our testimony 3142 to you was believed 4100.
1:11
To this 3739 end 1519 also 2532 we pray 4336 for you always 3842, that our God 2316 will count 515 you worthy 515 of your calling 2821, and fulfill 4137 every 3956 desire 2107 for goodness 19b and the work 2041 of faith 4102 with power 1411,
1:12
so 3704 that the name 3686 of our Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 will be glorified 1740 in you, and you in Him, according 2596 to the grace 5485 of our God 2316 and [the] Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547.
