*3421 *2089 *3004 *5023 6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. *3568 *1492 *3588 *2722 *0602 *2540 7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth *3466 *0458 *2235 *1754 *3440 *0737 *2722 will let, until he be taken out of the way. *2722 *2193 *1096 *3319 8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with *5119 *0459 *0602 *3739 *2962 *0355 the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his *4151 *4750 *2673 *2015 coming: *3952 9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and *3739 *3952 *2596 *1753 *4567 *3956 *1411 signs and lying wonders, *4591 *5579 *5059 10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; *3956 *0539 *0093 *0622 because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. *3739 *1209 *0026 *0225 *4982 11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they *5124 *1223 *2316 *3992 *1753 *4106 should believe a lie: *4100 *5579 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had *3956 *2919 *3588 *4100 *0225 pleasure in unrighteousness. *2106 *0093 13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved *3784 *2168 *0104 *2316 *0080 *0025 of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation *2962 *3754 *2316 *0746 *0138 *4991 through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: *1722 *0038 *4151 *4102 *0225 14 Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of *3739 *2564 *2098 *4047 *1391 our Lord Jesus Christ. *2962 *2424 *5547 15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have *3767 *0080 *4739 *2902 *3862 *3739 been taught, whether by word, or our epistle. *1321 *1535 *3056 *1535 *1992 16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath *1161 *2962 *2424 *5547 *0846 *2316 *2532 *3962 *3588 loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through *0025 *1325 *0166 *3874 *0018 *1680 *1722 grace, *5485 17 Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work. *3870 *5216 *2588 *4741 *3956 *0018 *3056 *2041 3:1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free *3063 *0080 *4336 *3056 *2962 course, and be glorified, even as it is with you: *5143 *1392 *2532 2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all *4506 *0824 *4190 *0444 *3956 men have not faith. *4102 3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. *2962 *4103 *3739 *4741 *5442 *4190 4 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and *3982 *2962 *1909 *2532 *4160 will do the things which we command you. *4160 *3739 *3853 5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the *2962 *2720 *5216 *2588 *1519 *0026 *2316 *1519 patient waiting for Christ. *5281 *5547 6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that *1161 *3853 *0080 *3686 *2962 *2424 *5547 ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not *4724 *3956 *0080 *4043 *0814 after the tradition which he received of us. *2596 *3862 *3739 *3880 7 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not *0846 *1492 *4459 *1163 *3401 *0812 ourselves disorderly among you; *0812 *1722 8 Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour *3761 *5315 *5100 *0740 *1432 *2038 *2873 and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you: *3449 *3571 *2250 *1912 *5100 9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you *3754 *2192 *1849 *1325 *1438 *5179 to follow us. *3401 10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any *2532 *3753 *5124 *3853 *1487 *1536 would not work, neither should he eat. *2309 *2038 *3366 *2068 11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working *0191 *5100 *4043 *1722 *0814 *2038 not at all, but are busybodies. *3367 *3367 *4020 12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, *1161 *5108 *3853 *3870 *2962 *2424 *5547 that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. *2271 *2038 *2068 *1438 *0740 13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing. *0080 *1573 *2569 *2569 14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and *1487 *5100 *5219 *3056 *3588 *1992 *4593 have no company with him, that he may be ashamed. *3361 *4874 *1788 15 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. *2532 *2233 *2190 *3560 *0080 16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The *1161 *2962 *1515 *0846 *1325 *1515 *3956 *3956 *5158 Lord be with you all. *2962 *3956 17 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every *0783 *3972 *1699 *5495 *3739 *4592 *3956 epistle: so I write. *1992 *3779 *1125 18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. *5485 *2962 *2424 *5547 *3956 *0281 ~~~~~~
