1 Thessalonians 2:14-16

English Standard Version

¹⁴ For you, brothers, ^(A)became imitators of ^(B)the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea. For ^(C)you suffered the same things from your own countrymen ^(D)as they did from the Jews,^{[a] 15 (E)}who killed both the Lord Jesus and ^(F)the prophets, and drove us out, and displease God and ^(G)oppose all mankind ^16 (H)by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they might be saved—so as always ^(I)to fill up the measure of their sins. But ^(J)wrath has come upon them at last!^[b]
