For which end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and perfect [in you] all pleasure in goodness, and the work of faith, with power;

that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And now ye know what restraineth, in order that he may be revealed in his own time.

And for this cause God sendeth them a working of delusion, that they may believe the falsehood;

that they may all be judged, who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, as with you,

and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; for it is not all that have faith.

And if any one obey not our word by this epistle, mark that man; and keep no company with him, that he may be shamed;

The salutation by the hand of me, Paul; which is the token in every letter; so I write.
