¹Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together to him, we ask you

¹Othoitz eguiten drauçuegu bada, anayeác, Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren aduenimenduaz eta gure harenganaco biltzarreaz.

²not to be quickly shaken in your mind, nor yet be troubled, either by spirit, or by word, or by letter as from us, saying that the day of Christ had come.

²Etzaitezten bertan adimenduz erauz, eta etzaitezten trubla ez spirituz, ez hitzez, ez epistolaz, guçaz scribatua baliz beçala, Christen eguna bertan baliz beçala.

³Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be, unless the departure comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction,

³Nehorc etzaitzatela seduci eceinere maneraz: ecen egun hura ezta ethorriren non reuoltamendua lehen ethor eztadin, eta manifesta eztadin bekatutaco guiçona, perditionezco semea,

⁴he who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshiped; so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.

⁴Cein opposatzen eta alchatzen baita Iainco erraiten eta adoratzen den guciren contra: hala non hura iainco beçala, Iaincoaren templean iarten baita, bere buruä eracusten duela ecen iainco dela.

⁵Don’t you remember that, when I was still with you, I told you these things?

⁵Ala etzarete orhoit ecen oraino çuequin nincela, gauça hauc erraiten nerauzquiçuela?

⁶Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.

⁶Eta orain cerc daducan badaquiçue, hura manifesta dadinçat bere demborán.

⁷For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.

⁷Ecen ia eguiten da iniquitatezco mysterioa: solament orain daducanac, eduquiren du ken daiteno artetic.

⁸Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and destroy by the manifestation of his coming;

⁸Eta orduan manifestaturen da gaichtoa, cein Iaunac deseguinen baitu bere ahoco Spirituaz, eta bere aduenimenduco claretateaz abolituren.

⁹even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

⁹Hura diot ceinen ethortea baita Satanen operationearen araura, puissança gucirequin eta signorequin eta gueçurrezco miraculurequin:

¹⁰and with all deception of wickedness for those who are being lost, because they didn’t receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

¹⁰Eta iniquitatezco abusione gucirequin galtzen diradenetan, ceren eguiaren amorioa ezpaitute recebitu vkán saluatu içateco.

¹¹Because of this, God sends them a working of error, that they should believe a lie;

¹¹Eta halacotz igorriren draue Iaincoac abusionezco operationea, gueçurra sinhets deçatençát:

¹²that they all might be judged who didn’t believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

¹²Condemna ditecençat eguia sinhetsi vkan eztuten guciac, baina iniquitatean placer hartu vkan dutenac.

¹³But we are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because God chose you from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth;

¹³Baina guc, Iaunaz onhetsi anayeac, behar drauzquiogu bethi esquerrac eman Iaincoari çueçaz, ceren hatseandanic elegitu baitzaituzte Iaincoac saluamendutara Spirituaren sanctificationez, eta eguiazco fedeaz:

¹⁴to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

¹⁴Ceinetara deithu vkan baitzaituzte gure Euangelioaz Iesus Christ gure Iaunaren gloriaren acquisitionetacotz.

¹⁵So then, brothers, stand firm, and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word, or by letter.

¹⁵Halacotz, anayeác, çaudete fermu eta educaçue ikassi duçuen doctriná, bada gure hitzez bada epistolaz.

¹⁶Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

¹⁶Bada Iesus Christ gure Iaun berac, eta gure Iainco eta Aita onhetsi gaituenac, eta eman consolatione eternala eta sperança ona gratiaz,

¹⁷comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

¹⁷Consola ditzala çuen bihotzac, eta confirma çaitzatela hitz eta obra on orotan.
