1 Али вас молимо, браћо, за долазак Господа нашег Исуса Христа, и за наш састанак у Њему,
1 Now, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him, we ask you
2 да се не дате ласно покренути од ума, нити да се плашите, ни духом ни речју, ни посланицом, као да је од нас послана, да је већ настао дан Христов.
2 not to be quickly shaken in your mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter as if from us, saying that the day of Christ has already come.
3 Да вас нико не превари никаквим начином; јер неће доћи док не дође најпре отпад, и не покаже се човек безакоња, син погибли,
3 Let no one deceive you in any way. For it will not be unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of destruction.
4 који се противи и подиже више свега што се зове Бог или се поштује, тако да ће он сести у цркви Божјој као Бог показујући себе да је Бог.
4 He 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.
5 Не памтите ли да сам вам ово казивао још кад сам код вас био?
5 Don’t you remember that when I was still with you, I told you these things?
6 И сад знате шта задржава да се не јави у своје време.
6 Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.
7 Јер се већ ради тајна безакоња, само док се уклони онај који сад задржава.
7 For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.
8 Па ће се онда јавити безаконик, ког ће Господ Исус убити духом уста својих, и искоренити светлошћу доласка свог;
8 Then 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;
9 ког је долазак по чињењу сотонином са сваком силом, и знацима и лажним чудесима,
9 even he whose coming is according to the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10 и са сваком преваром неправде међу онима који гину: јер љубави истине не примише, да би се спасли.
10 and 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.
11 И зато ће им Бог послати силу преваре, да верују лажи;
11 Because of this, God sends them a powerful delusion, that they should believe a lie,
12 да приме суд сви који не вероваше истини, него волеше неправду.
12 that they all might be judged who didn’t believe the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
13 А ми смо дужни свагда захваљивати Богу за вас, браћо љубазна Господу! Што вас је Бог од почетка изабрао за спасење у светињи Духа и вери истине.
13 But 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,
14 У које вас дозва јеванђељем нашим, да добијете славу Господа нашег Исуса Христа.
14 to which he called you through our Good News, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
15 Тако дакле, браћо, стојте и држите уредбе којима се научисте или речју или из посланице наше.
15 So then, brothers, stand firm and hold the traditions which you were taught by us, whether by word or by letter.
16 А сам Господ наш Исус Христос, и Бог и Отац наш, коме омилесмо и даде нам утеху вечну и наду добру у благодати,
16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,
17 да утеши срца ваша и да вас утврди у свакој речи и делу добром.
17 comfort your hearts and establish you in every good work and word.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
One may naturally enquire, what is that which withholdeth, and after that would know, why Paul expresses it so obscurely. What then is it that withholdeth, that is, hindereth him from being revealed? Some indeed say, the grace of the Spirit, but others the Roman empire, to whom I most of all accede. Wherefore?

And again, speaking of Antichrist, he says, "who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped." He points out here those who are called gods, by such as know not God, that is, idols.
… fire coming down out of heaven and consuming them, John meant that blow wherewith Christ in His coming is to strike those persecutors of the Church whom He shall then find alive upon earth, when He shall kill Antichrist with the breath of His mouth, then even this is not the last judgment of the wicked; but the last judgment …

Having called him "man of sin," and "son of perdition," He added, "Whose coming is after the working of Satan, with all power and signs and lying wonders; and with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish." And see how He secures them; "Go not forth into the deserts, enter not into the secret chambers." He did not say, …

And just as the mustard seed in one small grain contains many branches, so also this Faith has embraced in few words all the knowledge of godliness in the Old and New Testaments. Take heed then, brethren, and hold fast the traditions which ye now receive, and write them an the table of your heart.
