2 Thessalonians 1

1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah:

这封信函来自保罗、西拉和提摩太，写给帖撒罗尼迦、为我们父上帝和主耶稣基督所有的教会。

2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.

愿你们获得来自天父和主耶稣基督的恩典与平安。

3 We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you toward one another abounds,

兄弟姐妹们，我们始终都因你们而感谢上帝，我们衷心地感谢你们。因为你们对上帝的信正在快速增加，你们彼此相爱的心也在增加。

4 so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your perseverance and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure.

因为你们在经受的所有迫害苦难中，仍然保持着勇气和信心，所以在上帝的众教会中，说到你们会让我们深感骄傲。

5 This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of God’s Kingdom, for which you also suffer.

这是上帝做出公正决定的证明，你们配得上他的王国，你们也是为此而受苦。

6 For it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,

因为上帝所做之事都是良善正直，他也会恰如其分地处理那些导致你们受苦之人。

7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us when the Lord Yeshua is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

当耶稣基督与他强大的天使们在耀眼火焰中从天国降临，他会解救你们和我们于痛苦,

8 punishing those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Yeshua,

对那些拒绝上帝、不接受我们主基督福音之人，进行审判。

9 who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, (aiōnios g166)

他们要受到惩罚，永远离开上帝，无法见到主和他的光荣力量。 (aiōnios g166)

10 when he comes in that day to be glorified in his holy ones and to be admired among all those who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

当他要从其子民处获得荣耀的那一天，被所有信他之人所尊崇，你们也在其中，因为我们所说的一切，让你们信服。

11 To this end we also pray always for you that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith with power,

所以我们始终为你们祷告，愿我们上帝将你们变成的样子，值得他召唤我们所做的一切。如果你们想要行为正直良善，一举一动皆来自对他的信，愿上帝用强大的力量满足你们达成这个目标的每一个愿望。

12 that the name of our Lord Yeshua may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Yeshua the Messiah.

只有这样，我们主耶稣的名，才可能因你们的行为而获得荣耀，你们也会通过上帝和主耶稣基督的恩典，因他而荣耀。
