2 Thessalonians 2:11-15
New International Version
11 For this reason God sends them(A) a powerful delusion(B) so that they will believe the lie(C) 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.(D)
Stand Firm
13 But we ought always to thank God for you,(E) brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits[a](F) to be saved(G) through the sanctifying work of the Spirit(H) and through belief in the truth. 14 He called you(I) to this through our gospel,(J) that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm(K) and hold fast to the teachings[b] we passed on to you,(L) whether by word of mouth or by letter.
