13 But we ought always to thank God for you,
Brothers and Sisters Loved by the Lord,
Because God Chose you as Firstfruits
To be Saved
Through the Sanctifying Work of the Spirit
And through Belief in the Truth.
14 He Called you to this through our Gospel,
That you might share in the Glory
Of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 So then Brothers and Sisters,
Stand Firm and Hold Fast
To the Teaching we passed on to you,
Whether by Word of Mouth or by Letter.
16 May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself
And God our Father, Who Loved us
And by His Grace
Gave us Eternal Encouragement
And Good Hope,
17 Encourage your Hearts
And Strengthen you in Every Good Deed and Word.
(2 Thessalonians 2:13-17, NIV)
