4AsG5620 aG5620 resultG5620, we ourselvesG846 1speakG1461 proudlyG1461 of you amongG1722 2the churchesG1577 of GodG2316 for your 3perseveranceG5281 and faithG4102 4 5in the midst of allG3956 your persecutionsG1375 and afflictionsG2347 whichG3739 you endureG430.

5This is 6a 7plainG1730 indicationG1730 of God’sG2316 righteousG1342 judgmentG2920 soG1519 thatG1519 you will be 8consideredG2661 worthyG2661 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, for whichG3739 you indeedG2532 are sufferingG3958.

6 9For afterG1512 allG1512 10it is only rightG1342 11for GodG2316 to repayG467 with afflictionG2347 thoseG3588 who afflictG2346 you,

7and to give reliefG425 to you who are afflictedG2346, along with us, 12 13whenG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 will be revealedG602 14from heavenG3772 15with 16His mightyG1411 angelsG32

8 17in flamingG5395 fireG4442, dealingG1325 outG1325 retributionG1557 to thoseG3588 who 18do not knowG3609 GodG2316, and to thoseG3588 who 19do not obeyG5219 the gospelG2098 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424.
