1 Thessalonians 2:13-20
13For thisG3778 reasonG1223 we alsoG2532 constantlyG89 1thankG2168 GodG2316 that when you receivedG3880 the 2wordG3056 of GodG2316 whichG3739 you heardG191 from us, you acceptedG1209 it 3not as the wordG3056 of mere menG444, but asG2531 whatG2531 it reallyG230 is, the wordG3056 of GodG2316, 4whichG3739 alsoG2532 isG1754 atG1754 workG1754 in you who believeG4100. 14For you, brothersG80 and sisters, becameG1096 5imitatorsG3402 of 6the churchesG1577 of GodG2316 in ChristG5547 JesusG2424 that are 7in JudeaG2449, for 8you alsoG2532 enduredG3958 the sameG846 sufferingsG3958 atG5259 the handsG5259 of your ownG2398 countrymenG4853, 9evenG2531 as they did from the JewsG2453, 1510who bothG2532 killedG615 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 and 11the prophetsG4396, and 12droveG1559 us outG1559. 13They are not pleasingG700 to GodG2316, 14but hostileG1727 to allG3956 peopleG444, 1615hinderingG2967 us from speakingG2980 to the GentilesG1484 16soG2443 thatG2443 they may be savedG4982; with the resultG1519 that they alwaysG3842 1718reachG378 theG378 limitG378 of their sinsG266. But 19wrathG3709 has comeG5348 upon them 20fullyG5056.
17But we, brothersG80 and sisters, having been orphanedG642 from you by absence for a 21shortG2540G5610 whileG5610--22in 23personG4383, not in 24spiritG2588--were allG4056 theG4056 moreG4056 eagerG4704 with greatG4183 desireG1939 25to seeG3708 your faceG4383. 1826For 27we wantedG2309 to comeG2064 to you--I, PaulG3972, 2829moreG2532G1364 thanG2532 onceG530--and 30SatanG4567 31hinderedG1465 us. 19For whoG5101 is our hopeG1680, orG2228 32joyG5479 orG2228 crownG4735 of prideG2746, inG1715 theG1715 presenceG1715 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 at His 3334comingG3952? Or is it not indeedG2532 you? 20For you are 35our gloryG1391 and joyG5479.
