5:1 | But <1161> of <4012> the times <5550> and <2532> the seasons <2540>, brethren <80>, ye have <2192> (5719) no <3756> need <5532> that I write <1125> (5745) unto you <5213>. |
5:2 | For <1063> yourselves <846> know <1492> (5758) perfectly <199> that <3754> the day <2250> of the Lord <2962> so <3779> cometh <2064> (5736) as <5613> a thief <2812> in <1722> the night <3571>. |
5:3 | For <1063> when <3752> they shall say <3004> (5725), Peace <1515> and <2532> safety <803>; then <5119> sudden <160> destruction <3639> cometh upon <2186> (5731) them <846>, as <5618> travail <5604> upon <1722> a woman with child <1064> <2192> (5723); and <2532> they shall <1628> (0) not <3364> escape <1628> (5632). |
5:4 | But <1161> ye <5210>, brethren <80>, are <2075> (5748) not <3756> in <1722> darkness <4655>, that <2443> that day <2250> should overtake <2638> (5632) you <5209> as <5613> a thief <2812>. |
5:5 | Ye <5210> are <2075> (5748) all <3956> the children <5207> of light <5457>, and <2532> the children <5207> of the day <2250>: we are <2070> (5748) not <3756> of the night <3571>, nor <3761> of darkness <4655>. |
5:6 | Therefore <686> <3767> let us <2518> (0) not <3361> sleep <2518> (5725), as <5613> <2532> [do] others <3062>; but <235> let us watch <1127> (5725) and <2532> be sober <3525> (5725). |
5:7 | For <1063> they that sleep <2518> (5723) sleep <2518> (5719) in the night <3571>; and <2532> they that be drunken <3182> (5746) are drunken <3184> (5719) in the night <3571>. |
5:8 | But <1161> let <3525> (0) us <2249>, who are <5607> (5752) of the day <2250>, be sober <3525> (5725), putting on <1746> (5671) the breastplate <2382> of faith <4102> and <2532> love <26>; and <2532> for an helmet <4030>, the hope <1680> of salvation <4991>. |
5:9 | For <3754> God <2316> hath <5087> (0) not <3756> appointed <5087> (5639) us <2248> to <1519> wrath <3709>, but <235> to <1519> obtain <4047> salvation <4991> by <1223> our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, |
5:10 | Who <3588> died <599> (5631) for <5228> us <2257>, that <2443>, whether <1535> we wake <1127> (5725) or <1535> sleep <2518> (5725), we should live <2198> (5661) together <260> with <4862> him <846>. |
5:11 | Wherefore <1352> comfort <3870> (5720) yourselves together <240>, and <2532> edify <3618> (5720) one <1520> another <1520>, even <2531> as also <2532> ye do <4160> (5719). {comfort: or, exhort} |
5:12 | And <1161> we beseech <2065> (5719) you <5209>, brethren <80>, to know <1492> (5760) them which <3588> labour <2872> (5723) among <1722> you <5213>, and <2532> are over <4291> (5734) you <5216> in <1722> the Lord <2962>, and <2532> admonish <3560> (5723) you <5209>; |
5:13 | And <2532> to esteem <2233> (5738) them <846> very <5228> highly <1537> <4053> in <1722> love <26> for <1223> their <846> work's sake <2041>. [And] be at peace <1514> (5720) among <1722> yourselves <1438>. |
5:14 | Now <1161> we exhort <3870> (5719) you <5209>, brethren <80>, warn <3560> (5720) them that are unruly <813>, comfort <3888> (5737) the feebleminded <3642>, support <472> (5737) the weak <772>, be patient <3114> (5720) toward <4314> all <3956> [men]. {exhort: or, beseech} {unruly: or, disorderly} |
5:15 | See <3708> (5720) that none <3361> <5100> render <591> (5632) evil <2556> for <473> evil <2556> unto any <5100> [man]; but <235> ever <3842> follow <1377> (5720) that which <3588> is good <18>, both <2532> among <1519> yourselves <240>, and <2532> to <1519> all <3956> [men]. |
5:16 | Rejoice <5463> (5720) evermore <3842>. |
5:17 | Pray <4336> (5737) without ceasing <89>. |
5:18 | In <1722> every thing <3956> give thanks <2168> (5720): for <1063> this <5124> is the will <2307> of God <2316> in <1722> Christ <5547> Jesus <2424> concerning <1519> you <5209>. |
5:19 | Quench <4570> (5720) not <3361> the Spirit <4151>. |
5:20 | Despise <1848> (5720) not <3361> prophesyings <4394>. |
5:21 | Prove <1381> (5720) all things <3956>; hold fast <2722> (5720) that which <3588> is good <2570>. |
5:22 | Abstain <567> (5732) from <575> all <3956> appearance <1491> of evil <4190>. |
5:23 | And <1161> the very <846> God <2316> of peace <1515> sanctify <37> (5659) you <5209> wholly <3651>; and <2532> [I pray God] your <5216> whole <3648> spirit <4151> and <2532> soul <5590> and <2532> body <4983> be preserved <5083> (5684) blameless <274> unto <1722> the coming <3952> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>. |
5:24 | Faithful <4103> [is] he that calleth <2564> (5723) you <5209>, who <3739> also <2532> will do <4160> (5692) [it]. |
5:25 | Brethren <80>, pray <4336> (5737) for <4012> us <2257>. |
5:26 | Greet <782> (5663) all <3956> the brethren <80> with <1722> an holy <40> kiss <5370>. |
5:27 | I charge <3726> (5719) you <5209> by the Lord <2962> that this epistle <1992> be read <314> (5683) unto all <3956> the holy <40> brethren <80>. {charge: or, adjure} |
5:28 | The grace <5485> of our <2257> Lord <2962> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547> [be] with <3326> you <5216>. Amen <281>. <<[The first <4413> [epistle] to <4314> the Thessalonians <2331> was written <1125> (5648) from <575> Athens <116>.]>> |
