For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
For the secret power of lawlessness is already at work; but the one who now holds it back will continue to do so till he is taken out of the way.
Τὸ γὰρ μυστήριον ἤδη ἐνεργεῖται τῆς ἀνομίας· μόνον ὁ κατέχων ἄρτι, ἕως ἐκ μέσου γένηται,
To gar mystērion ēdē energeitai tēs anomias· monon o katechōn arti, eōs ek mesoy genētai,
