"rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus: "
— 2 Thessalonians 1:8, American Standard Version
“In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:”
“giving vengeance to those who don't know God, and to those who don't obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus,”
“With flaming fire he will mete out punishment on those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.”
“In a flame of fire, giving vengeance to them who know not God and who obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
“To give punishment to those who have no knowledge of God, and to those who do not give ear to the good news of our Lord Jesus:”
“In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:”
which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God; to the end that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
if so be that it is a righteous thing with God to recompense affliction to them that afflict you,
and to you that are afflicted rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with the angels of his power in flaming fire,
rendering vengeance to them that know not God, and to them that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus:
who shall suffer punishment, even eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might,
when he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be marvelled at in all them that believed (because our testimony unto you was believed) in that day.
To which end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfil every desire of goodness and every work of faith, with power;
