2 Thessalonians 2
1 We implore now you, brothers, by the coming of the Lord of us Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto Him
Ἐρωτῶμεν δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, ὑπὲρ τῆς παρουσίας τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ καὶ ἡμῶν ἐπισυναγωγῆς ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν,
2 for not soon to be shaken you in mind (nor *N(k)O*) to be troubled, neither through spirit nor through word nor through letter as if through us, as that has been present the day of the (Lord. *N(K)O*)
εἰς τὸ μὴ ταχέως σαλευθῆναι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τοῦ νοὸς μηδὲ θροεῖσθαι, μήτε διὰ πνεύματος μήτε διὰ λόγου μήτε δι᾽ ἐπιστολῆς, ὡς δι᾽ ἡμῶν, ὡς ὅτι ἐνέστηκεν ἡ ἡμέρα τοῦ κυρίου.
3 No one you may deceive in not one way; that only unless shall have come the apostasy first and shall have been revealed the man (of lawlessness, *N(K)O*) the son of destruction,
μή τις ὑμᾶς ἐξαπατήσῃ κατὰ μηδένα τρόπον· ὅτι ἐὰν μὴ ἔλθῃ ἡ ἀποστασία πρῶτον, καὶ ἀποκαλυφθῇ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τῆς ἀνομίας, ὁ υἱὸς τῆς ἀπωλείας,
4 who is opposing and exalting himself above every [one] named god or object of worship so as for him in the temple of God (as god *K*) to sit down setting forth he himself that is God.
ὁ ἀντικείμενος καὶ ὑπεραιρόμενος ἐπὶ πάντα λεγόμενον θεὸν ἢ σέβασμα, ὥστε αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ θεοῦ καθίσαι, ἀποδεικνύντα ἑαυτὸν ὅτι ἐστὶν θεός.
5 Surely you do remember that yet being with you these things I was saying to you?
οὐ μνημονεύετε ὅτι ἔτι ὢν πρὸς ὑμᾶς ταῦτα ἔλεγον ὑμῖν;
6 And now that which is restraining you know for to be revealed him in (his own *NK(o)*) time.
καὶ νῦν τὸ κατέχον οἴδατε, εἰς τὸ ἀποκαλυφθῆναι αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ αὐτοῦ καιρῷ.
7 The for mystery already is working of lawlessness, only [there is] the [one] restraining [it] at present until out of [the] midst he may be [gone];
τὸ γὰρ μυστήριον ἤδη ἐνεργεῖται τῆς ἀνομίας, μόνον ὁ κατέχων ἄρτι ἕως ἐκ μέσου γένηται·
8 And then will be revealed the lawless [one] whom the Lord (Jesus *NO*) (will execute *N(k)O*) with the breath of the mouth of Him and will annul by the appearing of the coming of Him;
καὶ τότε ἀποκαλυφθήσεται ὁ ἄνομος, ὃν ὁ κύριος Ἰησοῦς ἀνελεῖ τῷ πνεύματι τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ, καὶ καταργήσει τῇ ἐπιφανείᾳ τῆς παρουσίας αὐτοῦ·
9 whose is coming according to [the] working of Satan in every power and in signs and in wonders of falsehood
οὗ ἐστιν ἡ παρουσία κατ᾽ ἐνέργειαν τοῦ σατανᾶ ἐν πάσῃ δυνάμει καὶ σημείοις καὶ τέρασιν ψεύδους,
10 and in every deceit (*k*) of wickedness (in *k*) unto those perishing, in return for which the love of the truth not they received in order for to be saved them;
καὶ ἐν πάσῃ ἀπάτῃ ἀδικίας τοῖς ἀπολλυμένοις, ἀνθ᾽ ὧν τὴν ἀγάπην τῆς ἀληθείας οὐκ ἐδέξαντο εἰς τὸ σωθῆναι αὐτούς·
11 And because of this (sends *N(k)O*) to them God a powerful delusion so that to believe they what [is] false,
καὶ διὰ τοῦτο πέμπει αὐτοῖς ὁ θεὸς ἐνέργειαν πλάνης, εἰς τὸ πιστεῦσαι αὐτοὺς τῷ ψεύδει·
12 in order that may be judged (all *NK(o)*) those not having believed the truth but having delighted (in *k*) in unrighteousness.
ἵνα κριθῶσιν ἅπαντες οἱ μὴ πιστεύσαντες τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, ἀλλὰ εὐδοκήσαντες τῇ ἀδικίᾳ.
13 We ourselves however ought to give thanks to God always concerning you, brothers beloved by [the] Lord, that (has chosen *N(k)O*) you God (from [the] beginning *N(k)O*) unto salvation in [the] sanctification of [the] Spirit and [by] faith of [the] truth,
ἡμεῖς δὲ ὀφείλομεν εὐχαριστεῖν τῷ θεῷ πάντοτε περὶ ὑμῶν, ἀδελφοὶ ἠγαπημένοι ὑπὸ κυρίου, ὅτι εἵλατο ὑμᾶς ὁ θεὸς ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς εἰς σωτηρίαν ἐν ἁγιασμῷ πνεύματος καὶ πίστει ἀληθείας,
14 to this (also *n*) He called you through the gospel of us to [the] obtaining of [the] glory of the Lord of us Jesus Christ.
εἰς ὃ ἐκάλεσεν ὑμᾶς διὰ τοῦ εὐαγγελίου ἡμῶν, εἰς περιποίησιν δόξης τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ χριστοῦ.
15 So then, brothers, do stand firm and do hold fast to the traditions that you were taught whether through word or through letter from us.
Ἄρα οὖν, ἀδελφοί, στήκετε, καὶ κρατεῖτε τὰς παραδόσεις ἃς ἐδιδάχθητε εἴτε διὰ λόγου εἴτε δι᾽ ἐπιστολῆς ἡμῶν.
16 Himself now the Lord of us Jesus Christ and God (the *N(K)O*) Father of us, the [One] having loved us and having given [us] comfort eternal and hope good by grace, (aiōnios g166)
αὐτὸς δὲ ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦς χριστὸς καὶ θεὸς ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν, ὁ ἀγαπήσας ἡμᾶς καὶ δοὺς παράκλησιν αἰωνίαν καὶ ἐλπίδα ἀγαθὴν ἐν χάριτι, (aiōnios g166)
17 would He encourage your hearts and would He strengthen (you *k*) in every work and word good.
παρακαλέσαι ὑμῶν τὰς καρδίας καὶ στηρίξαι ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ καὶ λόγῳ ἀγαθῷ.
