2 Thessalonians 2

1 But we request you, brethren, —in behalf of the Presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto him,

ερωτωμεν δε υμασ αδελφοι υπερ τησ παρουσιασ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου και ημων επισυναγωγησ επ αυτον

2 That ye be not quickly tossed from your mind, nor be put in alarm—either by spirit, or by discourse, or by letter as by us, as that the day of the Lord, hath set in:

εισ το μη ταχεωσ σαλευθηναι υμασ απο του νοοσ μητε θροεισθαι μητε δια πνευματοσ μητε δια λογου μητε δι επιστολησ ωσ δι ημων ωσ οτι ενεστηκεν η ημερα του χριστου

3 That no one may cheat, you, in any one respect. Because [that day will not set in] —except the revolt come first, and there he revealed the man of lawlessness, the son of destruction,

μη τισ υμασ εξαπατηση κατα μηδενα τροπον οτι εαν μη ελθη η αποστασια πρωτον και αποκαλυφθη ο ανθρωποσ τησ αμαρτιασ ο υιοσ τησ απωλειασ

4 The one who opposeth and exalteth himself on high against every one called God, or an object of worship; so that he, within the sanctuary of God, shall take his seat, showeth himself forth, that he is, God: —

ο αντικειμενοσ και υπεραιρομενοσ επι παντα λεγομενον θεον η σεβασμα ωστε αυτον εισ τον ναον του θεου ωσ θεον καθισαι αποδεικνυντα εαυτον οτι εστιν θεοσ

5 Remember ye not, that, while I was yet with you, these very things, I was telling you?

ου μνημονευετε οτι ετι ων προσ υμασ ταυτα ελεγον υμιν

6 And, what now restraineth, ye know, to the end he may be revealed in his own fitting time;

και νυν το κατεχον οιδατε εισ το αποκαλυφθηναι αυτον εν τω εαυτου καιρω

7 For, the secret, of lawlessness, already, is inwardly working itself, —only, until, he that restraineth at present, shall be gone, out of the midst:

το γαρ μυστηριον ηδη ενεργειται τησ ανομιασ μονον ο κατεχων αρτι εωσ εκ μεσου γενηται

8 And, then, shall be revealed the lawless one, —whom, the Lord [Jesus], will slay with the Spirit of his mouth, and paralyse with the forthshining of his Presence: —

και τοτε αποκαλυφθησεται ο ανομοσ ον ο κυριοσ αναλωσει τω πνευματι του στοματοσ αυτου και καταργησει τη επιφανεια τησ παρουσιασ αυτου

9 Whose, presence, [shall be] according to an inworking of Satan, with all manner of mighty work and signs and wonders of falsehood,

ου εστιν η παρουσια κατ ενεργειαν του σατανα εν παση δυναμει και σημειοισ και τερασιν ψευδουσ

10 And with all manner of deceit of unrighteousness, in them who are destroying themselves, because, the love of the truth, they did not welcome, that they might be saved; —

και εν παση απατη τησ αδικιασ εν τοισ απολλυμενοισ ανθ ων την αγαπην τησ αληθειασ ουκ εδεξαντο εισ το σωθηναι αυτουσ

11 And, for this cause, God sendeth them an inworking of error, to the end they should believe in the falsehood, —

και δια τουτο πεμψει αυτοισ ο θεοσ ενεργειαν πλανησ εισ το πιστευσαι αυτουσ τω ψευδει

12 In order that should be judged who would not believe in the truth, but were well-pleased with the unrighteousness.

ινα κριθωσιν παντεσ οι μη πιστευσαντεσ τη αληθεια αλλ ευδοκησαντεσ εν τη αδικια

13 But, we, are bound to give thanks unto God continually concerning you, brethren beloved by the Lord, for that God chose you, from the beginning, unto salvation, in sanctification of spirit and belief of truth, —

ημεισ δε οφειλομεν ευχαριστειν τω θεω παντοτε περι υμων αδελφοι ηγαπημενοι υπο κυριου οτι ειλετο υμασ ο θεοσ απ αρχησ εισ σωτηριαν εν αγιασμω πνευματοσ και πιστει αληθειασ

14 Unto which he called you, through means of our glad-message, unto an acquiring of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

εισ ο εκαλεσεν υμασ δια του ευαγγελιου ημων εισ περιποιησιν δοξησ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου

15 Hence, then, brethren, stand firm, and hold fast the instructions which ye were taught—whether through discourse, or through our letter.

αρα ουν αδελφοι στηκετε και κρατειτε τασ παραδοσεισ ασ εδιδαχθητε ειτε δια λογου ειτε δι επιστολησ ημων

16 But may, our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father, —Who hath loved you, and given you age-abiding consolation and good hope by favour, (aiōnios g166)

αυτοσ δε ο κυριοσ ημων ιησουσ χριστοσ και ο θεοσ και πατηρ ημων ο αγαπησασ ημασ και δουσ παρακλησιν αιωνιαν και ελπιδα αγαθην εν χαριτι (aiōnios g166)

17 Console your hearts, and confirm you in every good work and word!

παρακαλεσαι υμων τασ καρδιασ και στηριξαι υμασ εν παντι λογω και εργω αγαθω
