1 Thessalonians 2:14-16 Disciples’ Literal New Testament (DLNT)

¹⁴ For you became imitators, brothers, of the churches of God existing in Judea in Christ Jesus, because you also suffered the same things by your own countrymen as they also by the Jews— ¹⁵ the ones also^[a] having killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and having driven us out, and not being pleasing to God, and being contrary^[b] to all people, ¹⁶ forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles in order that they might be saved, so that they fill-up^[c] the measure of their sins always. But the wrath^[d] came^[e] upon them to the uttermost^[f].
