2 Thessalonians 1

1 Paulu, Sila àti Timotiu, Sí ìjọ Tẹsalonika, nínú Ọlọ́run Baba wa àti Jesu Kristi Olúwa:

Paul, Silvanus and Timothy, to the congregation of the Thessalonians in God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ:

2 Oore-ọ̀fẹ́ àti àlàáfíà fún yín láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run Baba àti Jesu Kristi Olúwa.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and Sovereign Jesus Christ.

3 Ó yẹ kí a máa dúpẹ́ lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run nígbà gbogbo nítorí yín, ará, àní gẹ́gẹ́ bí ó ti yẹ, nítorí pé ìgbàgbọ́ yín ń dàgbà gidigidi, àti ìfẹ́ olúkúlùkù yín sí ara yín ń di púpọ̀.

We are obligated to always give thanks to God about you, brothers, and properly so, because your faith is really growing, and the love of each and every one of you towards each other keeps increasing;

4 Nítorí náà, àwa tìkára wa ń fi yín ṣògo nínú ìjọ Ọlọ́run, nítorí sùúrù àti ìgbàgbọ́ yín nínú gbogbo inúnibíni àti wàhálà yín tí ẹ̀yin náà ń fi ara dà.

so that we ourselves boast about you among God's congregations, referring to your steadfastness and faith in the midst of all your persecutions, and the tribulations that you are enduring

5 Àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí jẹ́ ẹ̀rí pé òdodo ni ìdájọ́ Ọlọ́run àti pé nítorí èyí ni a ó kà yín yẹ fún ìjọba Ọlọ́run, nítorí èyí tí ẹ̀yin pẹ̀lú ṣe ń jìyà.

—the above is evidence that God's judgment is right, to the end that you be considered worthy of the Kingdom of God, on behalf of which you are actually suffering;

6 Olódodo ni Ọlọ́run: Òun yóò pọ́n àwọn tí ń pọ́n yín lójú, lójú,

since to God it is right to pay back affliction to those who are afflicting you

7 Òun yóò sì fi ìtura fún ẹ̀yin tí a ti pọ́n lójú àti fún àwa náà pẹ̀lú. Èyí yóò sì ṣe nígbà ìfarahàn Jesu Olúwa láti ọ̀run wá fún wá nínú ọwọ́ iná pẹ̀lú àwọn angẹli alágbára.

and rest (along with us) to you who are being afflicted, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with His powerful angels in blazing fire,

8 Òun yóò fi ìyà jẹ àwọn tí kò mọ Ọlọ́run àti àwọn tí ń ṣe àìgbọ́ràn sí ìyìnrere Jesu Olúwa wa.

inflicting vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not obey the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ,

9 A ó fi ìparun àìnípẹ̀kun jẹ wọ́n ní yà, a ó sì ṣe wọn mọ̀ kúrò níwájú Olúwa àti inú ògo agbára rẹ̀, (aiōnios g166)

who will pay a penalty: everlasting ruin, away from the face of the Lord and from the glory of His might, (aiōnios g166)

10 ní ọjọ́ tí yóò jẹ́ ẹni tí a ó yìn lógo nínú àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́ rẹ̀ àti ẹni àwòyanu ní àárín gbogbo àwọn tí ó ti gbàgbọ́. Èyí kò yọ yín sílẹ̀, nítorí ẹ ti gba ẹ̀rí tí a jẹ́ sí yín gbọ́.

whenever He comes to be glorified by His saints, yes to be marveled at by all who have believed (because our testimony to you was believed); in that Day.

11 Nítorí èyí, àwa pẹ̀lú ń gbàdúrà fún un yín nígbà gbogbo, pé kí Ọlọ́run wa kí ó lè kà yín yẹ fún ìpè rẹ̀, àti pé nípa agbára rẹ̀, òun yóò mú gbogbo èrò rere yín ṣẹ àti gbogbo ohun tí ìgbàgbọ́ bá rú jáde.

To this end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling and fulfill with power every desire of usefulness and work of faith,

12 Wọ̀nyí ni àdúrà wa, kí orúkọ Jesu Olúwa wa lè di yíyìn lógo nínú yín àti ẹ̀yin nínú rẹ̀, gẹ́gẹ́ bí oore-ọ̀fẹ́ Ọlọ́run àti ti Jesu Kristi Olúwa.

so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
