< 2 Thessalonians 2 >
1 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and [by] our gathering together unto him,
he bhrātaraḥ, asmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasyāgamanaṁ tasya samīpe 'smākaṁ saṁsthitiñcādhi vayaṁ yuṣmān idaṁ prārthayāmahe,
2 That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
prabhestad dinaṁ prāyeṇopasthitam iti yadi kaścid ātmanā vācā vā patreṇa vāsmākam ādeśaṁ kalpayan yuṣmān gadati tarhi yūyaṁ tena cañcalamanasa udvignāśca na bhavata|
3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
kenāpi prakāreṇa ko'pi yuṣmān na vañcayatu yatastasmād dināt pūrvvaṁ dharmmalopenopasyātavyaṁ,
4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
yaśca jano vipakṣatāṁ kurvvan sarvvasmād devāt pūjanīyavastuśconnaṁsyate svam īśvaramiva darśayan īśvaravad īśvarasya mandira upavekṣyati ca tena vināśapātreṇa pāpapuruṣeṇodetavyaṁ|
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
yadāhaṁ yuṣmākaṁ sannidhāvāsaṁ tadānīm etad akathayamiti yūyaṁ kiṁ na smaratha?
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
sāmprataṁ sa yena nivāryyate tad yūyaṁ jānītha, kintu svasamaye tenodetavyaṁ|
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth [will let], until he be taken out of the way.
vidharmmasya nigūḍho guṇa idānīmapi phalati kintu yastaṁ nivārayati so'dyāpi dūrīkṛto nābhavat|
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
tasmin dūrīkṛte sa vidharmmyudeṣyati kintu prabhu ryīśuḥ svamukhapavanena taṁ vidhvaṁsayiṣyati nijopasthitestejasā vināśayiṣyati ca|
9 [Even him], whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
śayatānasya śaktiprakāśanād vināśyamānānāṁ madhye sarvvavidhāḥ parākramā bhramikā āścaryyakriyā lakṣaṇānyadharmmajātā sarvvavidhapratāraṇā ca tasyopasthiteḥ phalaṁ bhaviṣyati;
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
yato hetoste paritrāṇaprāptaye satyadharmmasyānurāgaṁ na gṛhītavantastasmāt kāraṇād
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
īśvareṇa tān prati bhrāntikaramāyāyāṁ preṣitāyāṁ te mṛṣāvākye viśvasiṣyanti|
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
yato yāvanto mānavāḥ satyadharmme na viśvasyādharmmeṇa tuṣyanti taiḥ sarvvai rdaṇḍabhājanai rbhavitavyaṁ|
13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
he prabhoḥ priyā bhrātaraḥ, yuṣmākaṁ kṛta īśvarasya dhanyavādo'smābhiḥ sarvvadā karttavyo yata īśvara ā prathamād ātmanaḥ pāvanena satyadharmme viśvāsena ca paritrāṇārthaṁ yuṣmān varītavān
14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
tadarthañcāsmābhi rghoṣitena susaṁvādena yuṣmān āhūyāsmākaṁ prabho ryīśukhrīṣṭasya tejaso'dhikāriṇaḥ kariṣyati|
15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
ato he bhrātaraḥ yūyam asmākaṁ vākyaiḥ patraiśca yāṁ śikṣāṁ labdhavantastāṁ kṛtsnāṁ śikṣāṁ dhārayantaḥ susthirā bhavata|
16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given [us] everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, (aiōnios )
asmākaṁ prabhu ryīśukhrīṣṭastāta īśvaraścārthato yo yuṣmāsu prema kṛtavān nityāñca sāntvanām anugraheṇottamapratyāśāñca yuṣmabhyaṁ dattavān (aiōnios )
17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.
sa svayaṁ yuṣmākam antaḥkaraṇāni sāntvayatu sarvvasmin sadvākye satkarmmaṇi ca susthirīkarotu ca|
