3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come (A)unless the falling away comes first, and (B)the man of [a]sin is revealed, (C)the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and (D)exalts himself (E)above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sits [b]as God in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
5 Do you not remember that when I was still with you I told you these things? 6 And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. 7 For (F)the [c]mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only [d]He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, (G)whom the Lord will consume (H)with the breath of His mouth and destroy (I)with the brightness of His coming. 9 The coming of the lawless one is (J)according to the working of Satan, with all power, (K)signs, and lying wonders, 10 and with all unrighteous deception among (L)those who perish, because they did not receive (M)the love of the truth, that they might be saved. 11 And (N)for this reason God will send them strong delusion, (O)that they should believe the lie, 12 that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but (P)had pleasure in unrighteousness.

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)
