2 Tesaloničanom 1

1 Pavel in Silván ter Timótej, cerkvi Tesaloníčanov v Bogu, našem Očetu in Gospodu Jezusu Kristusu:

PAUL, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 ›Milost vam in mir od Boga, našega Očeta in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.‹

grace unto you and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Dolžni smo, da se vedno zahvaljujemo Bogu za vas, bratje, kakor se spodobi, zato ker ta vaša vera silno raste in je ljubezen vsakogar izmed vas vseh do drug drugega obilna,

We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as it is fit, because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all towards each other aboundeth:

4 tako, da se mi sami ponašamo z vami po Božjih cerkvah, zaradi vaše potrpežljivosti in vere, v vseh vaših preganjanjih in stiskah, ki jih prenašate;

so that we ourselves make our boast of you among the churches of God, for your patience and fidelity under all your persecutions and afflictions which ye endure:

5 kar je razpoznaven simbol pravične Božje sodbe, da boste lahko šteti vredne Božjega kraljestva, za katerega tudi trpite.

which is a manifest proof of the righteous judgment of God, that ye should be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

6 Čeprav je pri Bogu pravična stvar, da poplača stisko tem, ki vas stiskajo;

seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

7 vam pa, ki ste stiskani, počitek z nami, ko se bo Gospod Jezus, razodet iz nebes, s svojimi mogočnimi angeli,

and to you who are troubled, rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ from heaven with his mighty angels,

8 v plamenečem ognju maščeval na teh, ki ne poznajo Boga in ne ubogajo evangelija našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa;

in a flame of fire, taking vengeance of them that know not God, and obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

9 ki bodo kaznovani z večnim uničenjem proč od Gospodove prisotnosti in proč od slave njegove moči; (aiōnios g166)

who shall receive punishment, even eternal perdition, from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power: (aiōnios g166)

10 ko bo prišel, da bo proslavljen v svojih svetih in da bo občudovan v vseh teh, ki verujejo (ker so verovali našemu pričevanju med vami) na tisti dan.

when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired by all those who believe; because our testimony was believed among you in that day.

11 Zatorej tudi vedno molimo za vas, da vas bo naš Bog imel za vredne te poklicanosti in izpolnite vso dobro voljo njegove dobrote ter delo vere v môči;

Wherefore also we pray continually for you, that our God would count you worthy of the calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:

12 da bo v vas lahko proslavljeno ime našega Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa in vi v njem, glede na milost našega Boga in Gospoda Jezusa Kristusa.

that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified by you, and you by him, according to the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
