6and now, what is keeping down ye have known, for his being revealed in his own time,
7for the secret of the lawlessness doth already work, only he who is keeping down now [will hinder] -- till he may be out of the way,
8and then shall be revealed the Lawless One, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the manifestation of his presence,
9[him,] whose presence is according to the working of the Adversary, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders,
10and in all deceitfulness of the unrighteousness in those perishing, because the love of the truth they did not receive for their being saved,
11and because of this shall God send to them a working of delusion, for their believing the lie,
12that they may be judged -- all who did not believe the truth, but were well pleased in the unrighteousness.
