2. Solúnčanom 1
1 Pavol, Silván a Timotej solúnskej cirkvi v Bohu, našom Otcovi, a v Pánu Ježišovi Kristovi:2 Milosť vám a pokoj od Boha, nášho Otca, i od Pána Ježiša Krista.3 Musíme ustavične vzdávať vďaky Bohu za vás, bratia, ako sa aj sluší, veď vaša viera veľmi vzrastá a vzájomná láska všetkých vás je čoraz väčšia.4 A tak sa aj my vami chválime po Božích cirkvách: pre vašu vytrvalosť a vieru vo všetkých prenasledovaniach a súženiach, ktoré znášate.5 A to je znamenie spravodlivého Božieho súdu, že budete uznaní za hodných Božieho kráľovstva, za ktoré trpíte.6 A u Boha je spravodlivé, že odplatí súžením tým, čo vás sužujú,7 a vám, sužovaným, odpočinkom s nami, keď sa z neba zjaví Pán Ježiš s anjelmi svojej moci,8 aby v ohnivom plameni potrestal tých, čo nepoznajú Boha, aj tých, čo odporujú evanjeliu nášho Pána Ježiša.9 Za trest sa dostanú do večnej záhuby, ďaleko od Pánovej tváre a slávy jeho moci,10 keď príde v onen deň, aby bol oslávený vo svojich svätých a obdivovaný vo všetkých veriacich; lebo u vás sa naše svedectvo stretlo s vierou.11 Preto sa aj ustavične modlíme za vás, aby vás náš Boh urobil hodnými svojho povolania a svojou mocou uskutočnil každý dobrý zámer a dielo viery,12 aby bolo oslávené meno nášho Pána Ježiša Krista vo vás a vy v ňom, podľa milosti nášho Boha a Pána Ježiša Krista.
2 THESSALONIANS 1
1 t From Paul, Silas, t and Timothy.
To the church in Thessalonica, the people of God our Father and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 I pray that God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ will be kind to you and will bless you with peace!When Christ Returns
3 My dear friends, we always have good reason to thank God for you, because your faith in God and your love for each other keep growing all the time.
4 This is why we brag about you to all of God's churches. We tell them how patient you are and how you keep on having faith, even though you are going through a lot of trouble and suffering.
5 All this shows that God judges fairly and is making you fit to share in his kingdom for which you are suffering. 6 It is only right for God to punish everyone who is causing you trouble, 7 but he will give you relief from your troubles. God will do the same for us, when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with his powerful angels
8 and with a flaming fire.
Our Lord Jesus will punish anyone who doesn't know God and won't obey his message. 9 t Their punishment will be eternal destruction, and they will be kept far from the presence of our Lord and his glorious strength.
10 This will happen on the day when the Lord returns to be praised and honored by all who have faith in him and belong to him. This includes you, because you believed what we said.
11 God chose you, and we keep praying that God will make you worthy of being his people. We pray for God's power to help you do all the good things you hope to do and your faith makes you want to do. 12 Then, because of the undeserved grace of God and our Lord Jesus Christ, you will bring honor to the name of our Lord Jesus, and he will bring honor to you.
