1 Thessalonians 2:15-17

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁵ who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own Prophets and have driven us out. And they do not please God and are contrary to all mankind

¹⁶ and forbid us to preach to the Gentiles (so that they might be saved), always fulfilling their sins. But wrath has come upon them to the utmost.

¹⁷ But since, brothers, we were kept from you for a season (as far as sight, but not in the heart), we were eager to see your face with great desire.
