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; (C)since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with [b]tribulation those who trouble you, and to give you who are troubled (D)rest with us when (E)the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 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. (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.
