2 Thessalonians 2
1 Now [I want to write to you] about the time when our Lord Jesus Christ will return and when [God] will gather us together to [where Jesus] is. My fellow believers, I urge you
Rabbimiz İsa Mesih'in gelişine ve O'nunla birlikte olmak üzere toplanmamıza gelince: Kardeşler, size rica ediyoruz, Rab'bin gününün geldiğini ileri süren herhangi bir esin, bir söz ya da bizden gelmiş gibi gösterilen bir mektup hemen aklınızı karıştırmasın, sizi telaşlandırmasın.
2 that you think calmly [about any message] that [claims/says] that the Lord has [already] come again. Do not be shaken or alarmed/worried by any such message. [It does not matter] if [it is a message that someone claims God’s Spirit] revealed to him, or if [it is some other message that someone] has spoken, or whether [it is a message that someone claims] that I wrote in a letter.
3 Do not allow anyone to deceive you in any way [with the result that you believe any such message]. 2 Thessalonians 2:3b-5 [The Lord] will not come [MTY] [immediately]. First, [many people] [PRS] will rebel [against God]. The result of their rebelling will be that [they will accept and obey] the man who will sin very greatly [against God].
Hiç kimse hiçbir şekilde sizi aldatmasın. Çünkü imandan dönüş başlamadıkça, mahvolacak olan o yasa tanımaz adam ortaya çıkmadıkça o gün gelmeyecektir.
4 He will be the [supreme] enemy [of God]. He will [proudly] exalt himself above everything that [people] consider to be some god and above everything that people worship. [As a result of wanting people to worship him], he will [even enter] God’s Temple and sit down [there to rule]. He will publicly proclaim that he himself is God! But [God] will [certainly] punish that man forever!
Bu adam, tanrı diye anılan ya da tapılan her şeye karşı gelerek kendini hepsinden yüce gösterecek, hatta kendisini Tanrı ilan ederek Tanrı'nın Tapınağı'nda oturacaktır.
5 (I am sure that you remember that I kept telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]./Do you not remember that I continued telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]?) [RHQ]
Daha yanınızdayken bunları size söylediğimi hatırlamıyor musunuz?
6 You also know that there is something (OR, someone) that is preventing this man [from being revealed] {[from revealing himself]}. This man is being (held back/restrained) [now] for him to be revealed {that he reveal himself} at the time that [God has planned] [MTY].
Zamanı gelince ortaya çıkarılacak olan bu adamı şimdilik neyin engellediğini biliyorsunuz.
7 [Although Satan] is already secretly causing [people] to reject [God’s] laws, (the one/God) who is preventing [this man from revealing himself] now [will continue to prevent him from doing that] until he/[God] removes him.
Evet, yasa tanımazlığın gizli gücü şu anda bile etkindir; ama bu gücü şimdilik engelleyen ortadan kaldırılıncaya dek görevini sürdürecektir.
8 It is then that [God will allow] this man, who rejects [God’s] laws [completely], to be revealed {to reveal himself}. Then the Lord Jesus will destroy him, by simply commanding it [MTY]. Jesus, by his own glorious arrival, will cause him to become [completely] powerless.
Sonra yasa tanımaz adam ortaya çıkacak. Rab İsa onu ağzının soluğuyla öldürecek, gelişinin görkemiyle yok edecek.
9 But [before Jesus destroys him], Satan will make him very powerful. As a result, he [will do all kinds of supernatural] miracles and amazing things [DOU] that will seem as though [God has enabled him to do them].
Yasa tanımaz adam, her türlü mucizede, yanıltıcı belirtilerle harikalarda ve mahvolanları aldatan her türlü kötülükte sergilenen Şeytan'ın etkinliğiyle gelecek. Mahvolanlar, gerçeği sevmeye ve böylece kurtulmaya yanaşmadıklarından mahvoluyorlar.
10 And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. (questioned)
11 So, God, by his power, will enable this man to easily deceive people, so that they will believe what [this man] falsely [claims/says that he is].
İşte bu nedenle Tanrı yalana kanmaları için onların üzerine yanıltıcı bir güç gönderiyor.
12 The result will be that everyone will be [rightly] condemned {that [God] will [justly] condemn everyone} [to be punished] who did not believe the true [message], but who instead gladly chose [to be doing] what is wicked.
Öyle ki, gerçeğe inanmayan ve kötülükten hoşlananların hepsi yargılansın.
13 [Our] fellow believers, whom our Lord [Jesus] loves, we thank God very frequently for you. It is appropriate/right for us to do that, because God chose you (from the beginning [MTY] [of creation/before the world existed]) in order that he might save [you] as a result of [your] believing the true [message] and as a result of [God’s] Spirit setting you apart [for God].
Ama biz, ey Rab'bin sevdiği kardeşler, sizler için her zaman Tanrı'ya şükran borçluyuz. Çünkü Tanrı, Ruh aracılığıyla kutsal kılınıp gerçeğe inanarak kurtulmanız için sizi ta başlangıçtan seçti.
14 [We thank God that] he chose you as a result of our [proclaiming] the message about Christ [to you], in order that you might (share in/have) some of the glory that our Lord Jesus Christ has.
Rabbimiz İsa Mesih'in yüceliğine kavuşmanız için, bildirdiğimiz Müjde'yle sizi bu kurtuluşa çağırdı.
15 So, [our fellow believers, continue to be firm concerning what you believe]; that is, continue believing the [true] teaching that we gave to you by our speaking to you and by our [writing] a letter [to you].
Öyleyse dayanın, kardeşlerim! İster sözle ister mektupla, size ilettiğimiz öğretilere sımsıkı tutunun.
16 Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
Rabbimiz İsa Mesih'in kendisi ve bizi sevip lütfuyla bize sonsuz cesaret ve sağlam bir umut veren Babamız Tanrı sizi yüreklendirsin, her iyi eylem ve sözde pekiştirsin. (aiōnios g166)
17 [We strongly pray that] God and Jesus together will encourage you! And we pray that they will cause you to continue doing and saying things that God considers to be good.
