2:1 The false man-God

2 [ref]Now concerning the return of our master Yeshua Messiah and our being gathered together with him, we are asking you all, brothers and sisters, 2 to not be alarmed or have your thinking jolted back-and-forth by any ‘spirit’ or message or letter that seems to come from us that tries to say that the master has already returned. 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you in any way, because before that happens many people will turn away from the good message and the lawless man will be revealed—the conveyor of destruction 4 [ref]who opposes every god or object of worship and puts himself above them all—seating himself in God’s temple and (supposedly) demonstrating that he is God.

5 Don’t you remember how I told you all this when I was still with you all? 6 Now you know what is restraining him so that he’ll be revealed at the proper time 7 because the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, except that it’s being restrained until he’s taken out of the middle 8 [ref]and then the lawless man will be revealed. The master Yeshua will kill him with his breath and neutralise him with the appearance of his coming. 9 [ref]The lawless man was coming and working under Satan with his power and signs and false miracles 10 and with every unrighteous seduction. Those deceive those who are perishing because they never had the love for the truth that could have saved them. 11 That’s why God is sending deceptive practices to them, so that they can continue to believe in the falsehood, 12 so that all of those who didn’t believe in the truth but took pleasure in wicked actions, will be judged and sentenced.

2 And we _are _asking you _all, brothers, concerning the coming of _the master of _us, Yaʸsous chosen _one /messiah, and of _us gathering _together to him, 2 in _order that not quickly to _be _shaken you _all in the mind, nor to _be _being _alarmed, neither by spirit, nor by message, nor by letter, as _though by us, as that has _presented the day of _the master.
3 Not someone you _all may _deceive in not _one manner, because if not may _come the apostasy first, and may _be _revealed the man of_ the _lawlessness, the son of_ the _destruction, 4 the one opposing and exalting himself over every being _called a_god or object _of _worship, so _as him in the temple of_ the _god to _sit _down, demonstrating himself that he _is god.
5 Not you _all _are _remembering that still being with you _all, these things I _was _saying to _you _all?
6 And now the thing restraining you _all _have _known, in _order that to _be _revealed him in the of _him time.
7 For/Because the mystery already is _working of_ the _lawlessness, only the one restraining it now there _is, until out _of the_midst it _may _become.
8 And then will _be _being _revealed the lawless one, whom the master Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) will _be _killing with _the breath/spirit of _the mouth of _him, and will _be _nullifying by _the appearing of _the coming of _him, 9 of _whom is the coming, according _to the_working of_ the _Satan/(Sāţān) in every power, and signs, and wonders of _falsehood, 10 and in every seduction of _unrighteousness, in _the ones perishing, because/for which the love of _the truth not they _received, in _order that to _be _saved them.
11 And because _of this, is _sending to _them the god a_working of _deception, in _order that to _believe them in _the falsehood, 12 in _order _that may _be _judged all the ones not having _believed in _the truth, but having _taken _pleasure the in _unrighteousness.

2:13 Keep hold of the truth

13 But brothers and sisters, we here should always be thanking God for you who were loved by the master. From the beginning God chose you for salvation in the holiness of the spirit and faith in the truth 14 which he called you all to. That was through the good message that we brought so that you all might obtain the power that comes from our master Yeshua Messiah. 15 So as a result, brothers and sisters, stand firm and keep hold of the practices that we taught you—whether it was spoken or written in our letters.

16 May our master Messiah Yeshua and God our father who loved us and gives us eternal comfort and by his grace gives good hope, 17 comfort your minds and strengthen you all in everything you do and every good message you share.

2:1: 1Th 4:15-17.

2:4: Dan 11:36; Eze 28:2.

2:9: Mat 24:24.

13 But we ought to _be _giving _thanks to_ the _god always concerning you _all, brothers having _been _loved by the_master, that chose you _all the god, from the_beginning to salvation in the_holiness of_the_spirit and faith of_the_truth, 14 to which he _called you _all, through the good _message of _us, to the_procuring of_the_glory of _the master of _us, Yaʸsous chosen _one /messiah.
15 Therefore consequently, brothers, be _standing _firm and be _taking _hold _of the traditions that you _all _were _taught, whether by message, or by letter from _us.
16 And himself the master of _us, chosen _one /messiah, Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) and the god the father of _us, the one having _loved us and having _given comfort eternal, and hope good by grace, 17 might _comfort the hearts, of _you _all and might _strengthen you _all in every work and message good.
