It is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you ,
brothers ,
because of the great increase of your faith ,
and the wealth of your love for one another ;
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:4 @
So that we ourselves take pride in you in the churches of God for your untroubled mind and your faith in all the troubles and sorrows which you are going through ;
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:5 @
Which is a clear sign of the decision which God in his righteousness has made ;
to give you a part in his kingdom ,
for which you have undergone this pain ;
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:6 @
For it is an act of righteousness on God '
s part to give trouble as their reward to those who are troubling you ,
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:7 @
And to you who are troubled ,
rest with us ,
when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with the angels of his power in flames of fire ,

2Thessalonians:1:8 @
To give punishment to those who have no knowledge of God ,
and to those who do not give ear to the good news of our Lord Jesus :
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:9 @
Whose reward will be eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his strength ,
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:10 @
At his coming ,
when he will have glory in his saints ,
and will be a cause of wonder in all those who had faith (
because our witness among you had effect )
in that day .

For this reason ,
you are ever in our prayers ,
that you may seem to our God such as may have a part in his purpose and that by his power he will make all his good purpose ,
and the work of faith ,
complete ;
bbe @
2Thessalonians:1:12 @
So that glory may be given to the name of our Lord Jesus through you ,
and you may have glory in him ,
by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ .
