2 Tesalonika 2:11-12

2:11 Consequently ¹  God sends on them a deluding influence ²  so that they will believe what is false. 2:12 And so ³  all of them who have not believed the truth but have delighted in evil will be condemned. ⁴ 

[2:11]  ¹ tn Grk “and for this reason.”

[2:11]  ² tn Grk “a working of error.”

[2:12]  ³ tn Grk “that.” A new sentence was started here in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[2:12]  ⁴ tn Grk “be judged,” but in this context the term clearly refers to a judgment of condemnation (BDAG 568 s.v. κρίνω 5.b.α; cf. KJV “that they all might be damned”). CEV views the condemnation as punishment (“will be punished”).
