2 Tesalonaika 1

1 Ko Paula, mo Silivenusi, mo Timote, ki he siasi ʻoe kakai Tesalonika ʻoku ʻi he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi:

Paul and Sylvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Ke ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻaloʻofa, mo e melino, mei he ʻOtua ko ʻetau Tamai mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

grace be to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 ‌ʻOku totonu ʻemau fakafetaʻi maʻuaipē ki he ʻOtua koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, ʻo hangē ko ia ʻoku taau, koeʻuhi ʻoku tupu ʻo lahi ʻaupito ʻaupito hoʻomou tui, pea ʻoku tupulekina ʻa hoʻomou feʻofaʻaki kiate kimoutolu kotoa pē;

We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as it is right, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all toward each other abounds:

4 Ko ia ʻoku mau vikiviki koeʻuhi ko kimoutolu ki he ngaahi siasi ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻi hoʻomou faʻa kātaki mo e tui, ʻi homou ngaahi fakatanga kotoa pē, mo e ngaahi mamahi, ʻoku mou faʻa kātakiʻi:

so that we ourselves glory in you, among the churches of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and afflictions which you endure;

5 [ʻAia ]ko e fakaʻilonga ʻoe fakamaau totonu ʻoe ʻOtua, koeʻuhi ke lau ʻakimoutolu ʻoku mou taau mo e puleʻanga ʻoe ʻOtua, ʻaia ʻoku mou mamahi ai foki:

which endurance of yours is a proof of the righteous judgment of God, in order that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you suffer:

6 He ko e meʻa totonu ʻi he ʻOtua ke totongi ʻaki ʻae mamahi kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakamamahiʻi ʻakimoutolu;

since, indeed, it is a righteous thing with God, to repay affliction to those who afflict you,

7 Ka kiate kimoutolu ʻoku mamahi, ko e fiemālie mo kimautolu, ʻoka fakahā mai ʻae ʻEiki ko Sisu mei he langi mo ʻene kau ʻāngelo mālohi,

and to you that are afflicted, rest with us, at the revelation of our Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels,

8 ‌ʻI he afi uloulo mo e fai totongi kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai te nau ʻilo ʻae ʻOtua, pea ʻoku ʻikai talangofua ki he ongoongolelei ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi:

in flaming fire, to take vengeance on those who know not God, and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ;

9 ‌ʻAkinautolu ʻe tautea ʻaki ʻae fakaʻauha taʻengata mei he ʻao ʻoe ʻEiki, pea mei he nāunau ʻo ʻene māfimafi; (aiōnios g166)

these shall suffer punishment in that day, even eternal destruction, far from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power, (aiōnios g166)

10 ‌ʻOka haʻu ia ke fakahikihikiʻi ʻe heʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni, pea ke fakatumutumu ai, ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻakinautolu kotoa pē ʻoku tui; he naʻa mou tui ki he ʻemau fakamoʻoni ʻiate kimoutolu.

when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all those who believe, and in you also, because our testimony among you was believed.

11 Ko ia foki ʻoku mau lotua maʻuaipē ʻakimoutolu, koeʻuhi ke lau ʻe hotau ʻOtua ʻoku mou taau mo e ui [ni], ke ne fakakakato ʻae finangalo lelei kotoa pē ʻo [ʻene ]angalelei, mo e ngaue ʻae tui, ʻi he mālohi:

In order to which, we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of this calling, and may fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power,

12 Koeʻuhi ke ongoongoleleiʻia ʻae huafa ʻo hotau ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi ʻiate kimoutolu, mo kimoutolu ʻiate ia, ʻo fakatatau ki he ʻofa ʻa hotau ʻOtua mo e ʻEiki ko Sisu Kalaisi.

that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
