9that is, the one whose 1coming is in accord with the activity of aSatan, with all power and 2bsigns and false wonders,

10and with 1all the deception of wickedness for athose who perish, because they did not receive the love of bthe truth so as to be saved.

11For this reason aGod 1will send upon them 2a bdeluding influence so that they will believe 3what is false,

12in order that they all may be 1judged who adid not believe the truth, but 2btook pleasure in wickedness.

13aBut we should always give thanks to God for you, bbrethren beloved by the Lord, because cGod has chosen you 1from the beginning dfor salvation 2ethrough sanctification 3by the Spirit and faith in the truth.

14It was for this He acalled you through bour gospel, 1that you may gain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

15So then, brethren, astand firm and bhold to the traditions which you were taught, whether cby word of mouth or by letter 1from us.

16aNow may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who has bloved us and given us eternal comfort and cgood hope by grace,

17acomfort and bstrengthen your hearts in every good work and word.
