2 Thessalonians 1:4-6

21st Century King James Version

⁴ so that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all persecutions and tribulations that ye endure,

⁵ which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer.

⁶ For it is a righteous thing with God to recompense with tribulation those who trouble you;
