2 Thessalonians 1:4-10
4therefore, we ourselves 1speak proudly of you among 2the churches of God for your 3perseverance and faith 4in the midst of all your persecutions and afflictions which you endure.
5This is a 5plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be 6considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering.
67For after all 8it is only just 9for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you,
7and to give relief to you who are afflicted 10and to us as well 1112when the Lord Jesus will be revealed 13from heaven 14with 15His mighty angels 16in flaming fire,
8dealing out retribution to those who 17do not know God and to those who 18do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9These will pay the penalty of 19eternal destruction, 20away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,
10when He comes to be 21glorified 22in His 23saints on that 24day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed--for our 25testimony to you was believed.
