In Context

4 so that we ourselves make our boast in you in the assemblies of God for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations, which ye are sustaining;

5 a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that ye should be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for the sake of which ye also suffer;

6 if at least it is a righteous thing with God to render tribulation to those that trouble you,

7 and to you that are troubled repose with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with the angels of his power,

8 in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who know not God, and those who do not obey the glad tidings of our Lord Jesus Christ;

9 who shall pay the penalty of everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his might,
