Now{G1161} we beseech{G2065} you,{G5209} brethren,{G80} touching{G5228} the coming{G3952} of our{G2257} Lord{G2962} Jesus{G2424} Christ,{G5547} and{G2532} our{G2257} gathering together{G1997} unto{G1909} him;{G846}

to the end that{G1519} ye{G5209} be{G4531} not{G3361} quickly{G5030} shaken{G4531} from{G575} your mind,{G3563} nor{G3383} yet be troubled,{G2360} either{G3383} by{G1223} spirit,{G4151} or{G3383} by{G1223} word,{G3056} or{G3383} by{G1223} epistle{G1992} as{G5613} from{G1223} us,{G2257} as{G5613} that{G3754} the day{G2250} of the Lord{G5547} is just at hand;{G1764}

let{G1818} no{G3361} man{G5100} beguile{G1818} you{G5209} in{G2596} any{G3367} wise:{G5158} for{G3754} [it will not be,] except{G1437} the falling away{G646} come{G2064} first,{G4412} and{G2532} the man{G444} of sin{G266} be revealed,{G601} the son{G5207} of perdition,{G3361}

he that opposeth{G480} and{G2532} exalteth himself{G5229} against{G1909} all{G3956} that is called{G3004} God{G2316} or{G2228} that is worshipped;{G4574} so that{G5620} he{G846} {G5613} {G2316} sitteth{G2523} in{G1519} the temple{G3485} of God,{G2316} setting{G584} himself{G1438} forth{G3754} as{G2076} God.{G2316}

Remember{G3421} ye not,{G3756} that,{G3754} when I was{G5607} yet{G2089} with{G4314} you,{G5209} I told{G3004} you{G5213} these things?{G5023}

And{G2532} now{G3568} ye know{G1492} that which restraineth,{G2722} to the end that{G1519} he{G846} may be revealed{G601} in{G1722} his{G1438} own season.{G2540}

For{G1063} the mystery{G3466} of lawlessness{G458} doth{G1754} already{G2235} work:{G1754} only{G3440} [there is] one{G2722} that restraineth{G2722} now,{G737} until{G2193} he be taken{G1096} out of{G1537} the way.{G3319}

And{G2532} then{G5119} shall{G601} be revealed{G601} the lawless{G459} one, whom{G3739} the Lord{G2962} Jesus shall slay{G355} with the breath{G4151} of his{G846} mouth,{G4750} and{G2532} bring to nought{G2673} by the manifestation{G2015} of his{G846} coming;{G3952}

[None even he], whose{G3739} coming{G3952} is{G2076} according{G2596} to the working{G1753} of Satan{G4567} with{G1722} all{G3956} power{G1411} and{G2532} signs{G4592} and{G2532} lying{G5579} wonders,{G5059}

and{G2532} with{G1722} all{G3956} deceit{G539} of unrighteousness{G93} for{G1722} them that perish;{G622} because{G473} they received{G1209} not{G3756} the love{G26} of the truth,{G225} that{G1519} they{G846} might be saved.{G3739}

And{G2532} for{G1223} this{G5124} cause{G1223} God{G2316} sendeth{G3992} them{G846} a working{G1753} of error,{G4106} that{G1519} they{G846} should believe{G4100} a lie:{G5579}

that{G2443} they{G2919} all{G3956} might be judged{G2919} who believed{G4100} not{G3361} the truth,{G225} but{G235} had pleasure{G2106} in{G1722} unrighteousness.{G93}

But{G1161} we{G2249} are bound{G3784} to give thanks{G2168} to God{G2316} always{G3842} for{G4012} you,{G5216} brethren{G80} beloved{G25} of{G5259} the Lord,{G2962} for that{G3754} God{G2316} {G138} chose{G138} you{G5209} from{G575} the beginning{G746} unto{G1519} salvation{G4991} in{G1722} sanctification{G38} of the Spirit{G4151} and{G2532} belief{G4102} of the truth:{G225}

whereunto{G1519} he called{G2564} you{G5209} through{G1223} our{G2257} gospel,{G2098} to{G1519} the obtaining{G4047} of the glory{G1391} of our{G2257} Lord{G2962} Jesus{G2424} Christ.{G5547}

So then,{G3767} brethren,{G80} stand fast,{G4739} and{G2532} hold{G2902} the traditions{G3862} which{G3739} ye were taught,{G1321} whether{G1535} by{G1223} word,{G3056} or{G1535} by epistle{G1992} of ours.{G2257}

Now{G1161} our{G2257} Lord{G2962} Jesus{G2424} Christ{G5547} himself,{G846} and{G2532} God{G2316} our{G2257} Father{G3962} who loved{G25} us{G2248} and{G2532} gave{G1325} us{G2248} eternal{G166} comfort{G3874} and{G2532} good{G18} hope{G1680} through{G1722} grace,{G5485}

comfort{G3870} your{G5216} hearts{G2588} and{G2532} establish{G4741} them{G5209} in{G1722} every{G3956} good{G18} work{G2041} and{G2532} word.{G3056}
