grace to you, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

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,

who, indeed, shall pay a penalty, eternal destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His might,

that ye be not quickly shaken from your mind, nor be troubled, either by spirit, or by word, or by letter as from us, as that the day of the Lord has set in.

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

and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for not all have the faith.

But the Lord is faithful, Who will establish you, and guard you from the evil one.

Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not according to the instruction which ye received from us.
