2 Thessalonians 2:3-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
3 Let no one deceive you in any way, for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the lawless one[a] is revealed, the one destined for destruction.[b](A) 4 He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God.(B) 5 Do you not remember that I told you these things when I was still with you? 6 And you know what is now restraining him, so that he may be revealed when his time comes. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work, but only until the one who now restrains it is removed.(C) 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus[c] will destroy[d] with the breath of his mouth, annihilating him by the manifestation of his coming.(D) 9 The coming of the lawless one is apparent in the working of Satan, who uses all power, signs, lying wonders,(E) 10 and every kind of wicked deception for those who are perishing because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.(F) 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion, leading them to believe what is false,(G) 12 so that all who have not believed the truth but took pleasure in unrighteousness will be condemned.(H)

2 Thessalonians 2:3-12
New International Version
3 Don’t let anyone deceive you(A) in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion(B) occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed,(C) the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God(D) or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.(E)
5 Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things?(F) 6 And now you know what is holding him back,(G) so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back(H) will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed,(I) whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth(J) and destroy by the splendor of his coming.(K) 9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan(L) works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders(M) that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing.(N) They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.(O) 11 For this reason God sends them(P) a powerful delusion(Q) so that they will believe the lie(R) 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.(S)
