Berean Standard Bible
Now we
beseech
you,
brethren,
by
the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ ,
and by
our gathering
together unto
him,
Now concerning
the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being
gathered
together to
Him, we
ask
you,
brothers,
That
ye
be
not soon
shaken
in
mind,
or
be troubled,
neither
by spirit ,
nor
by
word,
nor
by
letter as
from us, as
that the day of Christ
is
at
hand
.
not to
be easily
disconcerted
or
alarmed
by any
spirit or
message
or
letter seeming
to
be
from us, alleging
that the Day of the
Lord
has
already
come
.
Let no man
deceive you by
any means:
for that
day
shall
not come ,
except
there
come
a
falling
away
first,
and that
man of sin
be
revealed,
the son of perdition;
Let no one
deceive you in
any way,
for it
will
not come until
the
rebellion
occurs
and the
man of lawlessness—
the son of destruction—is
revealed.
Who
opposeth
and exalteth
himself above all
that
is
called God ,
or that
is
worshipped;
so that
he as
God
sitteth
in the temple of God, shewing
himself that
he
is
God.
He
will
oppose
and exalt
himself above every
so-
called god or object
of
worship.
So he will
seat
himself
in the temple of God, proclaiming
himself to
be
God.
Remember
ye
not ,
that ,
when
I was
yet
with
you,
I
told you these things?
Do
you
not remember
that I told you these things while
I
was
still
with
you
?
And now
ye
know what withholdeth
that he might
be revealed in
his
time.
And you
know what is
now
restraining
him,
so
that he may
be revealed at
the
proper
time.
For the mystery of iniquity
doth
already work :
only
he
who now letteth
will let,
until he be
taken out of the way.
For the mystery of lawlessness
is
already at
work ,
but
the
one
who now restrains
it
will continue
until he is
taken out of the way.
And then shall
that
Wicked
be revealed, whom the Lord shall
consume
with the spirit
of his mouth ,
and shall
destroy
with
the brightness
of his coming:
And then the
lawless
one
will
be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus
will
slay
with the breath
of His mouth and annihilate
by
the majesty
of His arrival.
Even
him,
whose
coming is
after
the working of Satan with all
power and
signs
and lying
wonders
,
The
coming of
the lawless
one
will
be
accompanied
by
the
working of Satan ,
with every
kind
of
power ,
sign,
and false
wonder
,
And with all
deceivableness
of
unrighteousness
in
them
that
perish;
because they received
not
the love of the truth ,
that they
might
be
saved.
and with every
wicked
deception
directed
against
those
who
are
perishing,
because they refused
the love of the truth that would
have
saved them
.
And
for this cause
God shall
send them strong
delusion ,
that they should
believe a
lie :
For this reason
God will
send them a
powerful
delusion so
that they believe the
lie ,
That they
all might
be
damned
who believed
not
the truth ,
but
had
pleasure
in unrighteousness
.
in
order
that judgment
may
come
upon
all who have
disbelieved
the truth and
delighted
in wickedness
.
But we are
bound
to
give
thanks
alway
to
God for you, brethren
beloved
of
the Lord, because God hath
from the beginning chosen
you
to salvation
through
sanctification of the Spirit and belief
of
the truth :
But we should
always
thank
God for you, brothers
who
are
loved
by
the Lord, because God has
chosen
you
from the beginning to be
saved
by
the
sanctification of the Spirit and by
faith
in
the truth .
Whereunto
he called you by
our gospel, to
the
obtaining
of
the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To
this
He called you through
our gospel, so
that
you
may
share
in
the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Therefore, brethren
, stand fast,
and hold
the traditions which
ye
have
been
taught, whether by word,
or our
epistle
.
Therefore, brothers
, stand firm
and cling
to
the traditions we
taught you
, whether by speech
or by
letter
.
Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself ,
and God ,
even
our Father, which
hath
loved us ,
and hath
given us everlasting
consolation
and good hope through
grace
,
Now may
our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who
by
grace
has
loved us and given us eternal
comfort
and good hope,
Comfort
your hearts ,
and stablish
you in every good word and work
.
encourage
your hearts and strengthen
you in every good word and deed
.
