The Judgment at Christ’s Coming

5 This is ⁿevidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be ^oconsidered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are also suffering— 6 since indeed God considers it ^pjust ^qto repay with affliction those who afflict you, 7 and to grant ^rrelief to you who are afflicted as well as to us, when ^sthe Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven ^twith his mighty angels 8 ^uin flaming fire, inflicting vengeance on those ^vwho do not know God and on those who ^wdo not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 They will suffer the punishment of ^xeternal destruction, ^yaway from ^{▼▼Or destruction that comes from} the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might, 10 ^aawhen he comes on ^abthat day ^acto be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at among all who have believed, because our ^adtestimony to you ^aewas believed.
