2 THESSALONIANS 1:9 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;”
They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might — the punishment (dikē) is 'eternal destruction' (olethros aiōnios), the most solemn statement of eschatological separation in Paul. Exclusion from God's presence is the essence of perdition. The loss is the loss of all glory.
