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,

8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

9 ^aThese shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and ^bfrom the glory of His power,

10 when He comes, in that Day, ^ato be ^bglorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who¹ believe, because our testimony among you was believed.

11 Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would ^acount you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and ^bthe work of faith with power,
