Grace to you and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ.

and to you who are troubled, rest with us, in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power

who shall suffer vengeance, eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,

that you be not suddenly shaken from your mind, nor disturbed, whether by a spirit, or through word, or a letter as by us, as that the day of the Lord has come.

But we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning unto salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth;

and in order that we may be delivered from the ungodly and wicked men; for faith does not belong to all.

But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and keep you from the evil one.

And we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks about disorderly, and not according to the teaching they received from us.
