9The coming of the lawless one will be accompanied by the working of Satan, with every kind of power, sign, and false wonder, 10and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them.
<11For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie,
12in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.
