2 Thessalonians 2
Maori Bible
2 Na, he mea tenei na matou ki a koutou, e oku teina, mo te taenga mai o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti, mo to tatou huihuinga atu ano ki a ia;
2 Kei hohoro te rurea o o koutou hinengaro, kei ohorere ranei i ta te wairua, i ta te kupu, i ta te pukapuka ranei e kiia ana na matou, e mea ana kua tae tonu mai inaianei te ra o te Ariki.
3 Kei tinihangatia koutou i tetahi mea e te tangata: e kore hoki e tae wawe mai, kia matua tae mai te takanga atu, kia whakakitea mai ano hoki te tangata o te hara, te tama a te whakangaro:
4 He hoariri nei ia, e whakakake ana i a ia ki runga ake i nga mea katoa e kiia ana he Atua, e karakiatia ana; kia noho ai ia i te whare tapu o te Atua, kia whakaatu ai i a ia ko ia te Atua.
5 Kahore ranei koutou e mahara i ahau ano i a koutou, i korerotia e ahau enei mea ki a koutou?
6 Na ka matau koutou inaianei ki te mea e arai ana, kia whakakitea mai ra ano ia a tona taima.
7 No te mea kei te mahi inaianei te mea huna o te kino, otira tera tetahi kei te arai inaianei, kia whakawateatia rawatia ano ia.
8 Ko reira whakakitea mai ai taua tangata kino, e whakangaromia e te Ariki ki te ha o tona mangai, e whakakahoretia ki te putanga nui o tona taenga mai;
9 Ara a ia pu, i rite nei tona taenga mai ki te mahinga a Hatana, i runga i te mana, i nga tohu, i nga merekara teka,
10 I nga mahi tinihanga katoa hoki o te he, i roto i te hunga e whakangaromia ana; no te mea kihai i riro i a ratou te aroha o te pono, kia ora ai ratou.
11 Mo konei hoki ka tukua atu e te Atua ki a ratou he pohehe e mahi ana, kia whakapono ai ratou ki te teka:
12 Kia tukua ai ki te he te hunga katoa kahore i whakapono ki te pono, i ahuareka ke ki te he.
13 Tika tonu ia kia whakawhetai atu matou ki te Atua mo koutou i nga wa katoa, e oku teina e arohaina nei e te Ariki, he mea whiriwhiri na hoki koutou na te Atua no te timatanga ra ano mo te ora, i runga i te whakatapu a te Wairua, i runga ano i te whakapono ki te pono;
14 Ko te mea tena i karangatia ai koutou e ia, he mea na to matou rongopai, ara kia whiwhi ki te kororia o to tatou Ariki, o Ihu Karaiti.
15 Heoi, e oku teina, e tu koutou: kia mau ki nga whakarerenga iho i whakaakona ai koutou e te kupu, e ta matou pukapuka ranei.
16 Na, ma to tatou Ariki, ma Ihu Karaiti pu ano, ma te Atua, ma to tatou Matua, i aroha mai nei ki a tatou, i homai nei i te whakamarie mutungakore, me te mea pai e tumanakohia atu nei, he meatanga na te aroha noa,
17 Mana e whakamarie o koutou ngakau, mana koutou e whakau ki runga ki nga kupu, ki nga mahi pai katoa.

New International Version
The Man of Lawlessness
2 Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ(A) and our being gathered to him,(B) we ask you, brothers and sisters, 2 not to become easily unsettled or alarmed by the teaching allegedly from us—whether by a prophecy or by word of mouth or by letter(C)—asserting that the day of the Lord(D) has already come.(E) 3 Don’t let anyone deceive you(F) in any way, for that day will not come until the rebellion(G) occurs and the man of lawlessness[a] is revealed,(H) the man doomed to destruction. 4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God(I) or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God’s temple, proclaiming himself to be God.(J)
5 Don’t you remember that when I was with you I used to tell you these things?(K) 6 And now you know what is holding him back,(L) so that he may be revealed at the proper time. 7 For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back(M) will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way. 8 And then the lawless one will be revealed,(N) whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth(O) and destroy by the splendor of his coming.(P) 9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan(Q) works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders(R) that serve the lie, 10 and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing.(S) They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.(T) 11 For this reason God sends them(U) a powerful delusion(V) so that they will believe the lie(W) 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.(X)
Stand Firm
13 But we ought always to thank God for you,(Y) brothers and sisters loved by the Lord, because God chose you as firstfruits[b](Z) to be saved(AA) through the sanctifying work of the Spirit(AB) and through belief in the truth. 14 He called you(AC) to this through our gospel,(AD) that you might share in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm(AE) and hold fast to the teachings[c] we passed on to you,(AF) whether by word of mouth or by letter.
16 May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father,(AG) who loved us(AH) and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, 17 encourage(AI) your hearts and strengthen(AJ) you in every good deed and word.
