1Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in Elohim our Father and the Master Yahusha Messiah: 2Grace to you and peace from Elohim our Father and the Master Yahusha Messiah. 3We are bound to always give thanks to Elohim for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you toward one another abounds, 4so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of Elohim for your perseverance and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure. 5This is an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of Elohim, to the end that you may be counted worthy of Elohim’s Kingdom, for which you also suffer. 6For it is a righteous thing with Elohim to repay affliction to those who afflict you, 7and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us when the Master Yahusha is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, 8punishing those who don’t know Elohim, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Master Yahusha, 9who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of Yahuah and from the glory of his might, 10when he comes in that day to be glorified in his set-apart ones and to be admired among all those who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed. 11To this end we also pray always for you that our Elohim may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith with power, 12that the name of our Master Yahusha may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our Elohim and the Master Yahusha Messiah.
