2 Thessalonians 2
1 Now [I want to write to you] about the time when our Lord Jesus Christ will return and when [God] will gather us together to [where Jesus] is. My fellow believers, I urge you
A teď k tomu očekávanému příchodu Pána Ježíše Krista.
2 that you think calmly [about any message] that [claims/says] that the Lord has [already] come again. Do not be shaken or alarmed/worried by any such message. [It does not matter] if [it is a message that someone claims God’s Spirit] revealed to him, or if [it is some other message that someone] has spoken, or whether [it is a message that someone claims] that I wrote in a letter.
Prosím vás, nenechte si poplést hlavu pověstmi, že ten den už přichází, i kdyby to někdo tvrdil na základě nějakého prorockého vidění nebo se dokonce odvolával na nás. Nikdy jsme nic takového neřekli ani nenapsali.
3 Do not allow anyone to deceive you in any way [with the result that you believe any such message]. 2 Thessalonians 2:3b-5 [The Lord] will not come [MTY] [immediately]. First, [many people] [PRS] will rebel [against God]. The result of their rebelling will be that [they will accept and obey] the man who will sin very greatly [against God].
Než ten den nastane, musí dojít k velkému odpadnutí od původního Kristova učení a vystoupí člověk ztělesňující vzpouru proti Bohu a jeho zákonu.
4 He will be the [supreme] enemy [of God]. He will [proudly] exalt himself above everything that [people] consider to be some god and above everything that people worship. [As a result of wanting people to worship him], he will [even enter] God’s Temple and sit down [there to rule]. He will publicly proclaim that he himself is God! But [God] will [certainly] punish that man forever!
Ten se vyvýší nade všechno, co nese Boží jméno, a bude vyžadovat božské pocty sám pro sebe. Dokonce si přisvojí Boží trůn a představí se jako Bůh.
5 (I am sure that you remember that I kept telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]./Do you not remember that I continued telling you these things while I was still with you [there in Thessalonica]?) [RHQ]
Nevzpomínáte si, že jsem vám to říkal už při své první návštěvě?
6 You also know that there is something (OR, someone) that is preventing this man [from being revealed] {[from revealing himself]}. This man is being (held back/restrained) [now] for him to be revealed {that he reveal himself} at the time that [God has planned] [MTY].
Náznaky této vzpoury proti Bohu jsou již zde a nechybí mnoho, aby propukla naplno a nepřítel člověka i Boha se projevil veřejně.
7 [Although Satan] is already secretly causing [people] to reject [God’s] laws, (the one/God) who is preventing [this man from revealing himself] now [will continue to prevent him from doing that] until he/[God] removes him.
8 It is then that [God will allow] this man, who rejects [God’s] laws [completely], to be revealed {to reveal himself}. Then the Lord Jesus will destroy him, by simply commanding it [MTY]. Jesus, by his own glorious arrival, will cause him to become [completely] powerless.
Pán ho však nakonec odsoudí k záhubě a zničí svým slavným příchodem.
9 But [before Jesus destroys him], Satan will make him very powerful. As a result, he [will do all kinds of supernatural] miracles and amazing things [DOU] that will seem as though [God has enabled him to do them].
Ten bezbožník přijde jako satanův nástroj a vyzbrojen satanskou mocí bude předvádět všelijaké triky a zázraky,
10 And by doing wicked [things], he will completely deceive those who will [certainly] (perish/go to hell). [He will deceive them] because they will have refused to love the true [message]. So they will not be saved {God will not save them}. (questioned)
aby okouzlil ty, kteří řekli pravdě „ne“a míří k záhubě, protože odmítli pravdu, která jediná je mohla zachránit.
11 So, God, by his power, will enable this man to easily deceive people, so that they will believe what [this man] falsely [claims/says that he is].
Proto je Bůh nechá napospas té lživé moci, aby je ovládla,
12 The result will be that everyone will be [rightly] condemned {that [God] will [justly] condemn everyone} [to be punished] who did not believe the true [message], but who instead gladly chose [to be doing] what is wicked.
a tak všichni, kdo si místo pravdy oblíbili lež a hřích, sklidí spravedlivé odsouzení.
13 [Our] fellow believers, whom our Lord [Jesus] loves, we thank God very frequently for you. It is appropriate/right for us to do that, because God chose you (from the beginning [MTY] [of creation/before the world existed]) in order that he might save [you] as a result of [your] believing the true [message] and as a result of [God’s] Spirit setting you apart [for God].
Ovšem za vás, Pánem milovaní bratři, musíme stále děkovat Bohu, který vás vyvolil k záchraně, očistil svým Duchem a dal vám víru a pravdu.
14 [We thank God that] he chose you as a result of our [proclaiming] the message about Christ [to you], in order that you might (share in/have) some of the glory that our Lord Jesus Christ has.
Naším prostřednictvím vám poslal slovo záchrany a povolal vás k podílu na slávě našeho Pána Ježíše Krista.
15 So, [our fellow believers, continue to be firm concerning what you believe]; that is, continue believing the [true] teaching that we gave to you by our speaking to you and by our [writing] a letter [to you].
Nuže, stůjte tedy pevně a držte se všeho, co jsme vám odevzdali, ať osobně či v dopisech.
16 Our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God, our Father, loves us and encourages us and causes us to confidently expect [to receive] the eternal things that [he has promised to give to us] as a result of [Christ] acting kindly toward us in a way we did not deserve. (aiōnios g166)
Ať Ježíš Kristus, náš Pán, a Bůh, náš Otec, který si nás zamiloval a dal nám trvalou útěchu a pevnou naději, (aiōnios g166)
17 [We strongly pray that] God and Jesus together will encourage you! And we pray that they will cause you to continue doing and saying things that God considers to be good.
povzbudí vaše srdce a dá vám sílu ke každému dobrému činu i slovu.
