2 Thessalonians 1:5-6

Context
Encouragement in Persecution

1:5 This is evidence of God’s righteous judgment, to make you worthy 1  of the kingdom of God, for which in fact you are suffering. 1:6 For it is right 2  for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

1 tn Grk “so that you may be made worthy.” The passive infinitive καταξιωθῆναι (kataxiwqhnai) has been translated as an active construction in English for stylistic reasons.

2 tn Grk “if in fact/since,” as a continuation of the preceding.
