Do ye not remember, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
And now ye know what restraineth, in order that he may be revealed in his own time.
For the mystery of lawlessness is already working; only there is one who now restraineth, until he be taken out of the way;

and then will the lawless one be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will consume with the breath of his mouth, and destroy with the manifestation of his coming;
[[he, ]] whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power, and signs, and wonders of falsehood,
and in all deceit of unrighteousness for those who are perishing; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this cause God sendeth them a working of delusion, that they may believe the falsehood;
that they may all be judged, who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
