The Man of Lawlessness
2As to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we beg you, brothers and sisters,G11612not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as though from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is already here.G1519G5209G4531G3361G5030G4531G575G3563G3383G2360G3383G1223G4151G3383G1223G3056G3383G1223G1992G5613G1223G2257G5613G3754G2250G5547G1764
3Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the lawless one is revealed, the one destined for destruction.G1818G3361G5100G1818G5209G2596G3367G5158G3754G3362G2064G646G4412G2532G444G266G601G5207G684
4He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God.G3588G480G2532G5229G1909G3956G3004G2316G2228G4574G5620G846G5613G2316G2523G1519G3485G2316G584G1438G3754G2076G2316
5Do you not remember that I told you these things when I was still with you?G3421G3756G3754G5607G2089G4314G5209G3004G5213G5023
6And you know what is now restraining him, so that he may be revealed when his time comes.G2532G3568G1492G2722G1519G846G601G1722G1438G2540
7For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but only until the one who now restrains it is removed.G1063G3466G458G1754G2235G1754G3440G737G2722G2193G1096G1537G3319
8And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will destroy with the breath of his mouth, annihilating him by the manifestation of his coming.G2532G5119G601G459G601G3739G2962G355G4151G846G4750G2532G2673G2015G846G3952
9The coming of the lawless one is apparent in the working of Satan, who uses all power, signs, lying wonders,G3739G3952G2076G2596G1753G4567G1722G3956G1411G2532G4592G2532G5579G5059
10and every kind of wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.G2532G1722G3956G539G93G1722G622G473G3739G1209G3756G26G225G1519G846G4982
11For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion, leading them to believe what is false,G2532G5124G1223G2316G3992G846G1753G4106G1519G846G4100G5579
12so that all who have not believed the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness will be condemned.G2443G3956G2919G3588G4100G3361G225G235G2106G1722G93 G2249G3784G2168G3842G2316G4012G5216G80G25G5259G2962G3754G2316G138G575G746G138G5209G1519G4991G1722G38G4151G2532G4102G225 
Chosen for Salvation
13But we must always give thanks to God for you, brothers and sisters beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the first fruits for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in the truth.G116114For this purpose he called you through our proclamation of the good news, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.G1519G3739G2564G5209G1223G2257G2098G1519G4047G1391G2257G2962G2424G5547
15So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by our letter.G686G3767G80G4739G2532G2902G3862G3739G1321G1535G1223G3056G1535G1223G2257G1992 
New Testament
16Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and through grace gave us eternal comfort and good hope,G1161G2257G2962G2424G5547G846G2532G2316G2532G2257G3962G3588G25G2248G2532G1325G166G3874G2532G18G1680G1722G5485
17comfort your hearts and strengthen them in every good work and word.G3870G5216G2588G2532G4741G5209G1722G3956G18G3056G2532G2041
