9 even he, whose|strong="G3739" coming|strong="G3952" is|strong="G1510" according|strong="G2596" to|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" working|strong="G1753" of|strong="G2532" Satan|strong="G4567" with|strong="G1722" all|strong="G3956" power|strong="G1411" and|strong="G2532" signs|strong="G4592" and|strong="G2532" lying|strong="G5579" wonders|strong="G5059",
10 and|strong="G2532" with|strong="G1722" all|strong="G3956" deceit of|strong="G2532" unrighteousness for|strong="G1519" them|strong="G3588" that|strong="G3739" are|strong="G3588" perishing; because|strong="G1722" they|strong="G2532" received|strong="G1209" not|strong="G3756" the|strong="G1722" love of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" truth, that|strong="G3739" they|strong="G2532" might|strong="G2532" be|strong="G2532" saved|strong="G4982".
11 And|strong="G2532" for|strong="G1519" this|strong="G3778" cause|strong="G1223" God|strong="G2316" sendeth them|strong="G3588" a|strong="G2532" working|strong="G1753" of|strong="G1223" error|strong="G4106", that|strong="G3588" they|strong="G2532" should|strong="G2316" believe|strong="G4100" a|strong="G2532" lie|strong="G5579":
12 that|strong="G2443" they|strong="G3588" all|strong="G3956" might|strong="G3956" be|strong="G3361" judged|strong="G2919" who|strong="G3588" believed|strong="G4100" not|strong="G3361" the|strong="G3956" truth, but|strong="G3361" had|strong="G3588" pleasure|strong="G2106" in|strong="G3956" unrighteousness.
13 But|strong="G1161" we|strong="G2249" are|strong="G3588" bound|strong="G3784" to|strong="G1519" give|strong="G2168" thanks|strong="G2168" to|strong="G1519" God|strong="G2316" alway|strong="G3842" for|strong="G3754" you|strong="G5210", brethren|strong="G3588" beloved of|strong="G4012" the|strong="G1722" Lord|strong="G2962", for|strong="G3754" that|strong="G3754" God|strong="G2316" chose you|strong="G5210" from|strong="G2532" the|strong="G1722" beginning unto|strong="G1519" salvation|strong="G4991" in|strong="G1722" sanctification of|strong="G4012" the|strong="G1722" Spirit|strong="G4151" and|strong="G2532" belief|strong="G4102" of|strong="G4012" the|strong="G1722" truth:
14 whereunto|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" called|strong="G2564" you|strong="G5210" through|strong="G1223" our|strong="G2424" gospel|strong="G2098", to|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" obtaining|strong="G4047" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" glory|strong="G1391" of|strong="G1223" our|strong="G2424" Lord|strong="G2962" Jesus|strong="G2424" Christ|strong="G5547".
15 So|strong="G3767" then|strong="G3767", brethren|strong="G3588", stand|strong="G4739" fast|strong="G2902", and|strong="G2532" hold|strong="G2902" the|strong="G2532" traditions|strong="G3862" which|strong="G3739" ye|strong="G3739" were|strong="G3588" taught|strong="G1321", whether|strong="G1535" by|strong="G1223" word|strong="G3056", or|strong="G1535" by|strong="G1223" epistle|strong="G1992" of|strong="G3056" ours|strong="G1473".
