2 Thessalonians 1:4-7

4so that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure,

5which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer;

6since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you,

7and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,
