2 Thessalonians 2:7-12
King James Version
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

2 Thessalonians 2:7-12
New American Standard Bible
7 For (A)the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only [a](B)He who now restrains will do so until [b]He is [c]removed. 8 Then that lawless one (C)will be revealed, whom the Lord will eliminate (D)with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the (E)appearance of His [d]coming; 9 that is, the one whose [e]coming is in accord with the activity of (F)Satan, with all power and false [f](G)signs and wonders, 10 and with [g]all the deception of wickedness for (H)those who perish, because they did not accept the love of (I)the truth so as to be saved. 11 For this reason (J)God [h]will send upon them [i]a (K)deluding influence so that they will believe [j]what is false, 12 in order that they all may be [k]judged who (L)did not believe the truth, but [l](M)took pleasure in wickedness.

American Standard Version
7 For the mystery of lawlessness doth already work: [a]only there is one that restraineth now, until he be taken out of the way. 8 And then shall be revealed the lawless one, whom the Lord [b]Jesus shall [c]slay with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nought by the manifestation of his [d]coming; 9 even he, whose [e]coming is according to the working of Satan with all [f]power and signs and lying wonders, 10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness for them that [g]perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And for this cause God sendeth them a working of error, that they should believe a lie: 12 that they all might be judged who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
