4thereforeG5620, we ourselvesG846 1speakG1461 proudlyG1461 of you amongG1722 2the churchesG1577 of GodG2316 for your 3perseveranceG5281 and faithG4102 4in the midst of allG3956 your persecutionsG1375 and afflictionsG2347 whichG3739 you endureG430.

5This is a 5plainG1730 indicationG1730 of God’sG2316 righteousG1342 judgmentG2920 soG1519 that you will be 6consideredG2661 worthyG2661 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, for whichG3739 indeedG2532 you are sufferingG3958.

6 7For afterG1512 allG1512 8it is only justG1342 9for GodG2316 to repayG467 with afflictionG2347 thoseG3588 who afflictG2346 you,

7and to give reliefG425 to you who are afflictedG2346 10and to us as well 11 12whenG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 will be revealedG602 13from heavenG3772 14with 15His mightyG1411 angelsG32 16in flamingG5395 fireG4442,
