3We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;

3We ought to thankGod always for you, brethren, even as it is meet, because your faith increases exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all towards one another abounds;

3We ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because increase greatly doth your faith, and abound doth the love of each one of you all, to one another;

4So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:

4so that we ourselves make our boast in you in the assemblies ofGod for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations, which ye are sustaining;

4so that we ourselves do glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye bear;

5Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:

5a manifest token of the righteous judgment ofGod, to the end that ye should be counted worthy of the kingdom ofGod, for the sake of which ye also suffer;

5a token of the righteous judgment of God, for your being counted worthy of the reign of God, for which also ye suffer,

6Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;

6if at least [it is a] righteous thing withGod to render tribulation to those that trouble you,

6since <FI>it is<Fi> a righteous thing with God to give back to those troubling you--trouble,

7And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,

7and to you that are troubled repose with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with [the] angels of his power,

7and to you who are troubled--rest with us in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with messengers of his power,

8In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:

8in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who know notGod, and those who do not obey the glad tidings of our Lord Jesus Christ;

8in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ;

9Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;

9who shall pay the penalty [of] everlasting destruction from [the] presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his might,

9who shall suffer justice--destruction age-during--from the face of the Lord, and from the glory of his strength,

10When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

10when he shall have come to be glorified in his saints, and wondered at in all that have believed, (for our testimony to you has been believed,) in that day.

10when He may come to be glorified in his saints, and to be wondered at in all those believing--because our testimony was believed among you--in that day;

11Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:

11To which end we also pray always for you, that ourGod may count you worthy of the calling, and fulfil all [the] good pleasure of [his] goodness and [the] work of faith with power,

11for which also we do pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and may fulfil all the good pleasure of goodness, and the work of the faith in power,

12That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

12so that the name of our Lord Jesus [Christ] may be glorified in you and ye in him, according to the grace of ourGod, and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ.

12that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
