4 so that ^awe ourselves boast of you among the churches of God ^bfor your patience and faith ^cin all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure,

5 which is ^amanifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, ^bfor which you also suffer;

6 ^asince it is a righteous thing with God to repay with¹ tribulation those who trouble you,

7 and to give you who are troubled ^arest with us when ^bthe Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels,

John Wesley's Notes

<< 2 Thessalonians 1:5

2 Thessalonians 1:7 >>

2 Thessalonians 1:6

It is a righteous thing with God - (However men may judge) to transfer the pressure from you to them. And it is remarkable that about this time, at the passover, the Jews raising a tumult, a great number (some say thirty thousand) of them were slain. St. Paul seems to allude to this beginning of sorrows, I Thessalonians 2:16, which did not end but with their destruction.
