2nd Thessalonians
1:1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in Elohim our Father and the Master YASHUWAH the Messiah:
1:2 Grace to you*, and peace, from Elohim our Father and the Master YASHUWAH the Messiah.
1:3 We are bound to thank Elohim always for you*, brethren, as it is meet, because your* faith grows exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you* all towards each other abounds;
1:4 So that we ourselves glory in you* in the assemblies of Elohim, for your* patience and faith in all your* persecutions and tribulations that you* endure:
1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of Elohim, that you* may be counted worthy of the kingdom of Elohim, for which you* also suffer:
1:6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with Elohim to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you*;
1:7 And to you* who are troubled, rest with us, when the Master YASHUWAH shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not Elohim, and that obey not the gospel of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah:
1:9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of YASHUWAH, and from the glory of his power;
1:10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired by all them that believe (because our testimony among you* was believed) in that day.
1:11 Therefore also we pray always for you*, that our Elohim would count you* worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
1:12 That the name of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah may be glorified in you*, and you* in him, according to the grace of our Elohim, and of the Master YASHUWAH the Messiah.
2:1 Now we beseech you*, brethren, by the coming of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah, and by our gathering to him.
2:2 That you* be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of the Messiah is at hand.
2:3 Let no man deceive you* by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
2:4 Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called Elohim, or that is worshiped; so that he as Elohim sits in the temple of Elohim, showing himself that he is Elohim.
2:5 Remember you* not, that when I was yet with you*, I told you* these things?
2:6 And now you* know what withholds that he might be revealed in his time.
2:7 For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now restrains will restrain, until he be taken out of the way.
2:8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom YASHUWAH will consume with the spirit of his mouth, and will destroy with the brightness of his coming:
2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan, with all power, and signs, and lying wonders,
2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2:11 And for this cause Elohim will send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2:12 That they all may be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2:13 But we are bound to give thanks always to Elohim for you*, brethren, beloved by the Master, because Elohim has from the beginning chosen you* to salvation, through sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth:
2:14 To which he called you* by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah.
2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the orders which you* have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
2:16 Now our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah himself, and Elohim, even our Father, who has loved us, and has given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,
2:17 Comfort your* hearts, and establish you* in every good word and work.
3:1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of YASHUWAH may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you*;
3:2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.
3:3 But YASHUWAH is faithful, who will establish you*, and keep you* from evil.
3:4 And we have confidence in YASHUWAH concerning you*, that you* both do and will do the things which we command you*.
3:5 And the Master direct your* hearts into the love of Elohim, and into the patient waiting for the Messiah.
3:6 Now we command you*, brethren, in the name of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah, that you* withdraw yourselves* from every brother that walks disorderly, and not after the order which he received from us.
3:7 For yourselves* know how you* ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you*;
3:8 Neither did we eat any man's bread for nothing; but worked with labor and toil night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you*:
3:9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an example to you* to follow us.
3:10 For even when we were with you*, this we commanded you*, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
3:11 For we hear that there are some who walk among you* disorderly, working not at all, but are busy-bodies.
3:12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
3:13 But you*, brethren, be not weary in well-doing.
3:14 And if any man obeys not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
3:15 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
3:16 Now the Elohim of peace himself give you* peace always by all means. YASHUWAH be with you* all.
3:17 The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.
3:18 The grace of our Master YASHUWAH the Messiah be with you* all. Amen.
