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.

15 who killed the Lord Jesus(A) and the prophets(B) and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone 16 in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles(C) so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit.(D) The wrath of God has come upon them at last.[a]
