"who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and didn't please God, and are contrary to all men;"
— 1 Thessalonians 2:15, World English Bible
“Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:”
“who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove out us, and please not God, and are contrary to all men; ”
“who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets and persecuted us severely. They are displeasing to God and are opposed to all people,”
“Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and the prophets, and have persecuted us, and please not God, and are adversaries to all men;”
“Who put to death the Lord Jesus and the prophets, violently driving us out; who are unpleasing to God and against all men;”
“Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all men:”
to the end that you should walk worthily of God, who calls you into his own Kingdom and glory.
For this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that, when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as the word of men, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also works in you who believe.
For you, brothers, became imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews;
who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and didn't please God, and are contrary to all men;
forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved; to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.
But we, brothers, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, tried even harder to see your face with great desire,
because we wanted to come to you--indeed, I, Paul, once and again--but Satan hindered us.
