so that we ourselves rejoice over you in the churches of God, on account of your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which you endure;

the manifestation of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you indeed suffer:

Unto which indeed we are praying incessantly for you, in order that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and may fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness and work of faith, with power;

And now you know that which hinders, that he should be revealed in his time.

unto which He also called you through our gospel, unto the possession of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Then therefore, brethren, stand, and hold fast the traditions which you have been taught, whether by word, or by our epistle:

Salutation of me Paul with my own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.
