and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

with his mighty angels, in flaming fire, taking vengeance on those who know not God, and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,

With this in mind, we always pray for you, asking that our God might make you worthy of his calling and that through his power he might help you accomplish every good desire and faithful action.

And now ye know what withholdeth: even that he might be uttered at his time.

Whose, presence, shall be according to an inworking of Satan, with all manner of mighty work and sign and wonders of falsehood,

and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

that they all might be judged who did not believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

But it is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, loved by the Lord, because it was the purpose of God from the first that you might have salvation, being made holy by the Spirit and by faith in what is true:

And in this purpose he gave you a part through the good news of which we were the preachers, even that you might have part in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

neither did we eat bread from anyone's hand without paying for it, but in labor and travail worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you;

Not because we have not the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, so that you might do the same.
