* Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ : * Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ . * Brothers , we are bound to give thanks to God always concerning you , even as it is right , because your faith grows exceedingly , and the love of each one of you multiplies toward one another , * so as for us to boast ourselves in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions , and the afflictions which you endure , * a clear token of the just judgment of God , for you to be counted worthy of the kingdom of God , for which you indeed suffer ; * since it is a just thing with God to pay back tribulation to the ones troubling you , * and to give you , those being troubled , relief with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from Heaven with angels of His power , * in flaming fire giving full vengeance to those not knowing God , and to those not obeying the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ , Isaiah . strkjv @66:15 ; Jeremiah . strkjv @10:25 * who will pay the penalty : everlasting destruction from the face of the Lord , "and from the glory of His strength ," Isaiah . strkjv @2:20 * when He comes to be glorified in His saints , and to be admired in all those who believe in that Day , because our testimony to you was believed . * For which we also continually pray concerning you , that our God would count you worthy of the calling , and would fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness , and work of faith in power , * 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 of the Lord Jesus Christ .
