2 Thessalonians 1:5-8

5This is 1a 2plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be 3considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you indeed are suffering.

6 4For after all 5it is only right 6for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

7and to give relief to you who are afflicted, along with us, 7 8when the Lord Jesus will be revealed 9from heaven 10with 11His mighty angels

8 12in flaming fire, dealing out retribution to those who 13do not know God, and to those who 14do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
