2 Thessalonians 1:5-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

5. which are a sign of the just judgment of God, so that you may be held worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer.

6. For certainly, it is just for God to repay trouble to those who trouble you,

7. and to repay you, who are being troubled, with a repose with us, when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with the Angels of his virtue,

8. granting vindication, by a flame of fire, against those who do not know God and who are not obedient to the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9. These shall be given the eternal punishment of destruction, apart from the face of the Lord and apart from the glory of his virtue,

10. when he arrives to be glorified in his saints, and to become a wonder in all those who have believed, in that day, because our testimony has been believed by you.

11. Because of this, too, we pray always for you, so that our God may make you worthy of his calling and may complete every act of his goodness, as well as his work of faith in virtue,

12. in order that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, in accord with the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
