1 Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 We are bound always to thank God for you, brothers--it is proper that we should, because your faith grows apace and your mutual love, one and all, is increasing. 4 So much so, that throughout the churches of God we are proud of you, proud of the stedfastness and faith you display through all the persecutions and the troubles in which you are involved. 5 They are proof positive of God's equity; you are suffering for the realm of God, and he means to make you worthy of it-- 6 since God considers it but just

to repay with trouble those who trouble you,

and repay you who are troubled (as well as us) with rest and relief,

when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven

together with the angels of his power 8 in flaming fire,

to inflict punishment on those who ignore God,

even on those who refuse obedience to the gospel of our Lord Jesus,

men who will pay the penalty of being destroyed eternally from the presence of the Lord

and from the glory of his might,

when he comes to be glorified in his saints

and marvelled at in all believers on that day (for our testimony has found confirmation in your lives). 11 In view of this we always pray for you, asking our God to make you worthy of his calling and by his power to fulfil every good resolve and every effort of faith, 12 so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you (and you glorified in him), by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
