2 Thessalonians 1

1 Paul and Siluanus, and Timotheus, vnto the Church of the Thessalonians, which is in God our Father, and in the Lord Iesus Christ:

Na Paora, na ratou ko Hirawanu, ko Timoti, ki te hahi o te hunga o Teharonika i roto i te Atua, i to tatou Matua, i te Ariki hoki, i a Ihu Karaiti.

2 Grace be with you, and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Iesus Christ.

Kia tau ki a koutou te aroha noa me te rangimarie, he mea na te Atua, na to tatou Matua, na te Ariki hoki, na Ihu Karaiti.

3 We ought to thanke God alwayes for you, brethren, as it is meete, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the loue of euery one of you toward another, aboundeth,

He tika rawa kia whakawhetai matou ki te Atua i nga wa katoa mo koutou, e oku teina, he mea pai ra hoki ia, no te mea e neke ake ana to koutou whakapono, hu nui rawa hoki te aroha o koutou katoa, o tetahi ki tetahi.

4 So that we our selues reioyce of you in the Churches of God, because of your patience and faith in al your persecutions and tribulatios that ye suffer,

I whakamanamana ai matou ki a koutou i roto i nga hahi a te Atua, ki to koutou u, ki to koutou whakapono i nga whakatoinga katoa i a koutou, i nga tukinotanga hoki e whakaririka kau na koutou;

5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous iudgement of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdome of God, for the which ye also suffer.

He tohu tenei mo te tika o ta te Atua whakawa, kia kiia ai koutou he tau mo te kingitanga o te Atua, e mate nei koutou he whakaaro ki tera:

6 For it is a righteous thing with God, to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you,

Mehemea ia he tika ki te Atua kia utua ki te kino te hunga e tukino ana i a koutou;

7 And to you which are troubled, rest with vs, when the Lord Iesus shall shewe himselfe from heauen with his mightie Angels,

A, ki a koutou hoki e tukinotia na, kia okioki tahi me matou, i te whakakitenga mai o te Ariki, o Ihu, i runga i te rangi me nga anahera o tona kaha,

8 In flaming fire, rendring vengeance vnto them, that doe not know God, and which obey not vnto the Gospel of our Lord Iesus Christ,

I roto i te mura ahi e rapu utu ana i te hunga kahore e matau ki te Atua, kahore nei hoki e ngohengohe ki te rongopai o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti.

9 Which shall be punished with euerlasting perdition, from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power, (aiōnios g166)

Ko te utu hoki e whakapangia ki a ratou he whakangaromanga, he mea mutungakore i te aroaro ano o te Ariki, i te kororia ano hoki o tona kaha; (aiōnios g166)

10 When he shall come to be glorified in his Saints, and to be made marueilous in all them that beleeue (because our testimonie toward you was beleeued) in that day.

Ina haere mai ia kia whakakororiatia i roto i tana hunga tapu, kia whakamoemititia i roto i te hunga whakapono katoa i taua ra; i whakapono na hoki koutou ki ta matou whakaatu i roto i a koutou.

11 Wherefore, we also pray alwayes for you, that our God may make you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodnes, and the worke of faith with power,

Koia nei matou ka inoi tonu nei mo koutou, kia meinga koutou e to tatou Atua he tau mo tenei karangatanga, kia whakaotia ano hoki e ia i runga i te kaha nga mea katoa i ahuareka ai tona pai, me te mahi ano hoki o te whakapono,

12 That the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God, and of the Lord Iesus Christ.

Kia whakakororiatia ai te ingoa o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, i roto i a koutou, me koutou hoki i roto i a ia, kia rite ai ki ta te aroha noa o to tatou Atua, o te Ariki hoki, o Ihu Karaiti.
