2 Tessalonicenses 1

1Paulo, e Silvano, e Timóteo, à igreja dos tessalonicenses, em Deus nosso Pai, e no Senhor Jesus Cristo. 2Haja entre vós graça e paz de nosso Pai, e do Senhor Jesus Cristo. 3Nós sempre devemos dar graças a Deus por vós, irmãos, como é o correto, porque vossa fé cresce muito, e o amor de cada um de todos vós pelos outros é cada vez maior; 4De maneira que nós mesmos nos orgulhamos de vós nas igrejas de Deus, por causa de vossa paciência e fé, em todas as vossas perseguições aflições que suportais; 5Que é prova clara do justo julgamento de Deus, para que sejais considerados dignos do Reino de Deus, pelo qual também sofreis; 6Pois é justo diante de Deus pagar com aflição aos que vos afligem; 7E a vós que sois afligidos, alívio conosco, quando o Senhor Jesus aparecer do céu com os anjos de seu poder, 8Com labareda de fogo, vingando os que não conhecem a Deus, e os que não obedecem ao Evangelho do nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo, 9Os quais serão punidos com o castigo da eterna perdição, longe da face do Senhor, e da glória de sua força; 10Quando ele vier para ser glorificado em seus santos, e naquele dia se fazer admirável em todos os que creem (porque nosso testemunho entre vós foi crido). 11Por isso que também sempre rogamos por vós, que nosso Deus vos faça dignos do chamamento, e cumpra todo bom desejo e a obra da fé com poder. 12Para que o nome de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo seja glorificado em vós, e vós nele, segundo a graça de nosso Deus, e do Senhor Jesus Cristo.

1Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ: 2Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 3We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you towards one another abounds; 4so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure. 5This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer. 6Since it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you, 7and 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, 8giving vengeance to those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus, 9who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, 10when he comes to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired among all those who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed) in that day. 11To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith, with power; 12that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

1Paulus, en Silvanus, en Timotheus, aan de Gemeente der Thessalonicensen, welke is in God, onzen Vader, en den Heere Jezus Christus: 2Genade zij u, en vrede, van God, onzen Vader, en den Heere Jezus Christus. 3Wij moeten God te allen tijd danken over u, broeders, gelijk billijk is, omdat uw geloof zeer wast, en dat de liefde eens iegelijken van u allen jegens elkander overvloedig wordt; 4Alzo dat wij zelven van u roemen in de Gemeenten Gods, over uw lijdzaamheid en geloof in al uw vervolgingen en verdrukkingen, die gij verdraagt; 5Een bewijs van Gods rechtvaardig oordeel, opdat gij waardig geacht wordt het Koninkrijk Gods, voor hetwelk gij ook lijdt; 6Alzo het recht is bij God verdrukking te vergelden dengenen, die u verdrukken; 7En u, die verdrukt wordt, verkwikking met ons, in de openbaring van den Heere Jezus van den hemel met de engelen Zijner kracht; 8Met vlammend vuur wraak doende over degenen, die God niet kennen, en over degenen, die het Evangelie van onzen Heere Jezus Christus niet gehoorzaam zijn. 9Dewelken zullen tot straf lijden het eeuwig verderf, van het aangezicht des Heeren, en van de heerlijkheid Zijner sterkte, 10Wanneer Hij zal gekomen zijn, om verheerlijkt te worden in Zijn heiligen, en wonderbaar te worden in allen, die geloven (overmits onze getuigenis onder u is geloofd geworden) in dien dag. 11Waarom wij ook altijd bidden voor u, dat onze God u waardig achte der roeping, en vervulle al het welbehagen Zijner goedigheid, en het werk des geloofs met kracht. 12Opdat de Naam van onzen Heere Jezus Christus verheerlijkt worde in u, en gij in Hem, naar de genade van onzen God en den Heere Jezus Christus.
