‏ 2 Thessalonians 1:5

 A manifest token of the righteous judgment of God ( ενδειγμα της δικαιας κρισεως του θεου ). Old word from  ενδεικνυμ, to point out, result reached ( -μα ), a thing proved. It is either in the accusative of general reference in apposition with the preceding clause as in Ro 8:3; 12:1, or in the nominative absolute when  ο εστιν, if supplied, would explain it as in Php 1:28. This righteous judgment is future and final (verses 6-10).

 To the end that you may be counted worthy ( εις το καταξιωθηνα υμας ). Another example of  εις το for purpose with first aorist passive infinitive from  καταξιοω, old verb, with accusative of general reference  υμας and followed by the genitive  της βασιλειας (kingdom of God). See 1Th 2:12 for

 kingdom of God.

 For which ye also suffer ( υπερ ης κα πασχετε ). Ye

 also as well as we and the present tense means that it is still going on.
