ABP - II Thessalonians

Chapter 1

1:1  Paul, and Silas, and Timothy, to the assembly of Thessalonians, in God our father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

1:2  Favor to you, and peace from God our father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

1:3  [2to give thanks 1We ought] to God at all times concerning you, brethren, as it is worthy, that [2is caused to grow exceedingly 1your belief], and [7is superabundant 1the 2love 4one 3of each 5of all 6of you] to one another;

1:4  so as for us ourselves [2in 3you 1to boast] in the assemblies of God over your endurance and belief in all your persecutions and the afflictions which you endure;

1:5  a demonstration of the righteous judgment of God, in the deeming you worthy of the kingdom of God, for of which also you suffer;

1:6  if indeed it be righteous by God to recompense the ones afflicting you with affliction;

1:7  and to you the ones being afflicted, a relaxation with us, in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with angels of his power,

1:8  in fire of flame, giving punishment to the ones not knowing God, and to the ones not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ;

1:9  ones who with punishment shall pay, [2ruin 1eternal] from the face of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength;

1:10  whenever he should come to be glorified among his holy ones, and to be marveled at by all the ones having believed (because [4was believed 1our testimony 2to 3you]) in that day.

1:11  For which also we pray at all times for you, that you should be worthy of the calling of our God, and should fulfill every good-pleasure of goodness, and work of belief with power,

1:12  so that [6should be glorified 1the 2name 3of our Lord 4Jesus 5Christ] in you, and you in him, according to the favor of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Chapter 2

2:1  And we ask you, brethren, concerning the arrival of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our assembling together unto him,

2:2  for [2to not 3quickly 4be shaken 1you] of the mind, nor to be alarmed, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter, as by us, that [5is present 1the 2day 3of the 4Christ].

2:3  Let not any completely deceive you in not one manner! for it will not be unless [3should come 1the 2defection] first, and [4should be uncovered 1the 2man 3of sin], the son of destruction,

2:4  the one being an adversary and elevating himself above all being called god or object of worship; so as for him [2in 3the 4temple 5of God 6as 7God 1to sit], exhibiting himself that he is God.

2:5  Do you not remember that still being with you, [2these things 1I said] to you?

2:6  And now the one constraining you know, for the uncovering him in his own time.

2:7  For the mystery [2already 3operates 1of lawlessness], only there is the one constraining just now until [2out of 3the midst 1he should be].

2:8  And then [3shall be uncovered 1the 2lawless one], whom the Lord shall consume by the breath of his mouth, and shall render [4useless 1the 2grandeur 3of his arrival];

2:9  whose [2is 1arrival] according to the energy of Satan in every power and signs and miracles of a lie,

2:10  and in every deception of unrighteousness among the ones being destroyed, because of the love of the truth they received not for them to be delivered.

2:11  And on account of this [2shall send forth 3to them 1God] an energy of delusion, for them to believe in the lie,

2:12  that [11should be judged 1all 2the ones 3not 4believing 5in the 6truth 7but 8taking pleasure 9in 10unrighteousness].

2:13  But we ought to give thanks to God at all times concerning you, brethren beloved by the Lord, that [2took you up 1God] from the beginning for deliverance in sanctification of spirit, and belief of truth,

2:14  in which he called you through our good news in procurement of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

2:15  So then, brethren, stand firmly and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word, or whether by our letter!

2:16  [5himself 1But 2our Lord 3Jesus 4Christ], and the God and our father, the one having loved us, and gave [2comfort 1eternal], and [2hope 1good] in favor,

2:17  may he comfort your hearts, and support you in every [2word 3and 4work 1good].

Chapter 3

3:1  For the rest pray brethren, for us, that the word of the Lord should run and should be glorified, as also to you;

3:2  and that we should be rescued from the unnatural and wicked men; [4is not 1for 5of all 2the 3belief].

3:3  But trustworthy is the Lord, who will support you, and will guard you from the evil.

3:4  But we rely in the Lord as to you, that in which we exhort unto you, both you are doing and will do.

3:5  And may the Lord straighten out your hearts in the love of God, and in the endurance of the Christ.

3:6  And we exhort you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, for you to be in readiness from every brother [2disorderly 1walking], and not according to the tradition which he took to himself from us.

3:7  For you yourselves know how it is necessary to imitate us; for we have not acted disorderly among you;

3:8  nor freely [2bread 1did we eat] from anyone, but in toil and trouble, night and day, working so as to not overburden any of you.

3:9  Not that we do not have authority, but that [2ourselves 3as an impression 1we should give] to you for the imitating us.

3:10  For also when we were with you, we exhorted this unto you, that if any does not want to work, neither let him eat!

3:11  For we hear some are walking among you disorderly, not working, but intermeddling.

3:12  And to such we exhort and appeal by our Lord Jesus Christ, that [2with 3tranquility 1working], [2their own 3bread 1they should eat].

3:13  But you, brethren, you should not tire doing good.

3:14  And if anyone does not obey our word by this letter, signify and do not intermingle with him, that he should be ashamed!

3:15  but not as an enemy esteem him, but admonish him as a brother!

3:16  [6himself 1And 3the 4Lord 5of peace 2may] give to you peace continually in every manner. The Lord be with all of you.

3:17  The greeting by my hand, Paul, which is a sign in every letter; so I write.

3:18  The favor of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you. Amen.
