Paul , - Silvanus , and Timothy - , To the church of (the) Thessalonians - in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ :
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
We are obligated to thank - God for you all the time , brothers , as is fitting , because your - faith is growing more and more , and vvv vvv vvv your - love for one another is increasing.
That is why we - boast among - God’s - churches - - about your - perseverance and faith in the face of all (the) - persecution and - affliction - you are enduring.
( All this is ) clear evidence - - of God’s righteous judgment. - And so you will be counted worthy of the kingdom - of God , for which - you are suffering.
After all , (it is) only right for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you ,
and to grant relief to you who are oppressed and to us (as well). (This will take place when) the Lord Jesus - is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels
in blazing fire , inflicting vengeance on those who vvv do not know God and - vvv do not obey the gospel of our - Lord Jesus.
(They) will suffer (the) penalty of eternal destruction , separated from (the) presence of the Lord and - the glory of His might ,
on (the) - day - He comes to be glorified in His - saints and regarded with wonder by all who have believed , including - you who have believed our - testimony.
To this end ... ... , we always pray ... for you , that our - God vvv will count you worthy of (His) calling , and (that) vvv vvv He will powerfully fulfill (your) every good desire and work of faith ,
so that the name of our - Lord Jesus will be glorified in you , and you in Him , according to the grace of our - God and of (the) Lord Jesus Christ.
