2 Thessalonians 1
1 To the Thessalonian church in union with God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, From Paul, Silas, and Timothy.
Pavel in Silvan in Timotej občini Tesaloničanov v Bogu očetu našem in Gospodu Jezusu Kristusu:
2 May God, the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ bless you and give you peace.
Milost vam in mir od Boga očeta našega in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.
3 Friends, it is our duty always to thank God about you, as is but right, considering the wonderful growth of your faith, and because, without exception, your love for one another is continually increasing.
Zahvaljevati se dolžni smo Bogu vedno za vas, bratje, kakor je spodobno, ker se močno množi vera vaša, in raste ljubezen vsakega izmed vas vseh med seboj;
4 So much is this the case that we ourselves speak with pride, before the churches of God, of the patience and faith which you have shown, in spite of all the persecutions and troubles that you are enduring.
Tako da se mi sami hvalimo za vas v občinah Božjih, zaradi stanovitnosti vaše in vere v vseh preganjanjih vaših in stiskah, katere prebivate;
5 These persecutions will vindicate the justice of God’s judgment, and will result in your being reckoned worthy of God’s kingdom, for the sake of which you are now suffering;
Znamenje pravične sodbe Božje, da se za vredne spoznate kraljestva Božjega, za katero tudi trpite:
6 since God deems it just to inflict suffering on those who are now inflicting suffering on you,
Če je res pravično pri Bogu vračati stisko njim, ki vas stiskajo,
7 and to give relief to you who are suffering, as well as to us, at the appearing of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels, in flaming fire.
In vam stiskanim počitek z nami, v razodenji Gospoda Jezusa z neba z angeli moči njegove,
8 Then he will inflict punishment on those who refuse to know God, and on those who turn a deaf ear to the good news of Jesus, our Lord.
V ognji plamena, kaznujočega njé, ki ne poznajo Boga, in ne slušajo evangelja Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa,
9 They will pay the penalty of unutterable ruin – banished from the presence of the Lord and from the glorious manifestation of his might, (aiōnios g166)
Kateri bodo za kazen trpeli večno pogubo izpred obličja Gospodovega in izpred slave moči negove, (aiōnios g166)
10 when he comes to be honored in his people, and to be revered in all who have learned to believe in him (for you also believed our testimony) – as he will be on that day.
Kader bode prišel, da se oslavi v svetih svojih, in da se mu čudijo vsi verujoči (ker se je verovalo pričanje naše pri vas) tisti dan.
11 With this in view, our constant prayer for you is that our God may count you worthy of the call that you have received, and by his power make perfect your delight in all goodness and the efforts that have resulted from your faith.
Za kar tudi vedno molimo za vas, da vas vredne spozna poklica naš Bog, in napolni vse dopadajenje dobrote in delo vere v moči,
12 Then, in the loving kindness of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ, will the name of Jesus, our Lord, be honored in you, and you in him.
Da se oslavi ime Gospoda našega Jezusa Kristusa v vas, in vi v njem, po milosti Boga našega in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.
