2 Thessalonians 1:5-10

God’s Righteous Judgment
5 This is a (A)plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be (B)considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering. 6 [a]Since (C)it is right [b]for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you, 7 and to give rest to you who are afflicted [c]and to us as well (D)at the revelation of the Lord Jesus (E)from heaven (F)with [d]His mighty angels (G)in flaming fire, 8 executing vengeance on those who (H)do not know God and to those who (I)do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 These will pay the penalty of (J)eternal destruction, (K)away from the presence of the [e]Lord and from the glory of His might, 10 when He comes to be (L)glorified [f]in His [g]saints on that (M)day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed—for our (N)witness to you was believed.

New King James Version
5 which is (A)manifest[a] evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, (B)for which you also suffer; 6 (C)since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with [b]tribulation those who trouble you, 7 and to give you who are troubled (D)rest with us when (E)the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 (F)These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and (G)from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes, in that Day, (H)to be (I)glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who [c]believe, because our testimony among you was believed.
