4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
ο αντικειμενος και υπεραιρομενος επι παντα λεγομενον θεον η σεβασμα ωστε αυτον εις τον ναον του θεου ως θεον καθισαι αποδεικνυντα εαυτον οτι εστιν θεος
5 Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
ου μνημονευετε οτι ετι ων προς υμας ταυτα ελεγον υμιν
6 And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
και νυν το κατεχον οιδατε εις το αποκαλυφθηναι αυτον εν τω εαυτου καιρω
7 For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
το γαρ μυστηριον ηδη ενεργειται της ανομιας μονον ο κατεχων αρτι εως εκ μεσου γενηται
8 And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
και τοτε αποκαλυφθησεται ο ανομος ον ο κυριος αναλωσει τω πνευματι του στοματος αυτου και καταργησει τη επιφανεια της παρουσιας αυτου
9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
ου εστιν η παρουσια κατ ενεργειαν του σατανα εν παση δυναμει και σημειοις και τερασιν ψευδους
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
και εν παση απατη της αδικιας εν τοις απολλυμενοις ων την αγαπην της αληθειας ουκ εδεξαντο εις το σωθηναι αυτους
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
και δια τουτο πεμψει αυτοις ο θεος ενεργειαν πλανης εις το πιστευσαι αυτους τω ψευδει
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
ινα κριθωσιν παντες οι μη πιστευσαντες τη αληθεια αλλ ευδοκησαντες εν τη αδικια
13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:
ημεις δε οφειλομεν ευχαριστειν τω θεω παντοτε περι υμων αδελφοι ηγαπημενοι υπο κυριου οτι ειλετο υμας ο θεος απ αρχης εις σωτηριαν εν αγιασμω πνευματος και πιστει αληθειας
