1 Thessalonians

Chapter 5

1 But1161 of4012 the3588 times5550 and2532 the3588 seasons,2540 brethren,80 ye have2192 no3756 need5532 that I write1125 unto you.5213

2 For1063 yourselves846 know1492 perfectly199 that3754 the3588 day2250 of the Lord2962 so3779 cometh2064 as5613 a thief2812 in1722 the night.3571

3 For1063 when3752 they shall say,3004 Peace1515 and2532 safety;803 then5119 sudden160 destruction3639 cometh upon2186 them,846 as5618 travail5604 upon a woman with child;2192 1722 1064 and2532 they shall not3364 escape.1628

4 But1161 ye,5210 brethren,80 are2075 not3756 in1722 darkness,4655 that2443 that day2250 should overtake2638 you5209 as5613 a thief.2812

5 Ye5210 are2075 all3956 the children5207 of light,5457 and2532 the children5207 of the day:2250 we are2070 not3756 of the night,3571 nor3761 of darkness.4655

6 Therefore686 3767 let us not3361 sleep,2518 as5613 do2532 others;3062 but235 let us watch1127 and2532 be sober.3525

7 For1063 they that sleep2518 sleep2518 in the night;3571 and2532 they that be drunken3182 are drunken3184 in the night.3571

8 But1161 let us,2249 who are5607 of the day,2250 be sober,3525 putting on1746 the breastplate2382 of faith4102 and2532 love;26 and2532 for a helmet,4030 the hope1680 of salvation.4991

9 For3754 God2316 hath not3756 appointed5087 us2248 to1519 wrath,3709 but235 to obtain1519 4047 salvation4991 by1223 our2257 Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547

10 Who died599 for5228 us,2257 that,2443 whether1535 we wake1127 or1535 sleep,2518 we should live2198 together260 with4862 him.846

11 Wherefore1352 comfort3870 yourselves together,240 and2532 edify3618 one another,1520 1520 even as2531 also2532 ye do.4160

12 And1161 we beseech2065 you,5209 brethren,80 to know1492 them which labor2872 among1722 you,5213 and2532 are over4291 you5216 in1722 the Lord,2962 and2532 admonish3560 you;5209

13 And2532 to esteem2233 them846 very highly5228 1537 4053 in1722 love26 for their work's sake.1223 846 2041 And be at peace1514 among1722 yourselves.1438

14 Now1161 we exhort3870 you,5209 brethren,80 warn3560 them that are unruly,813 comfort3888 the3588 feebleminded,3642 support472 the3588 weak,772 be patient3114 toward4314 all3956 men.

15 See3708 that none5100 3361 render591 evil2556 for473 evil2556 unto any5100 man; but235 ever3842 follow1377 that which is good,18 both2532 among1519 yourselves,240 and2532 to1519 all3956 men.

16 Rejoice5463 evermore.3842

17 Pray4336 without ceasing.89

18 In1722 every thing3956 give thanks:2168 for1063 this5124 is the will2307 of God2316 in1722 Christ5547 Jesus2424 concerning1519 you.5209

19 Quench4570 not3361 the3588 Spirit.4151

20 Despise1848 not3361 prophesyings.4394

21 Prove1381 all things;3956 hold fast2722 that which is good.2570

22 Abstain567 from575 all3956 appearance1491 of evil.4190

23 And1161 the3588 very846 God2316 of peace1515 sanctify37 you5209 wholly;3651 and2532 I pray God your5216 whole3648 spirit4151 and2532 soul5590 and2532 body4983 be preserved5083 blameless274 unto1722 the3588 coming3952 of our2257 Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ.5547

24 Faithful4103 is he that calleth2564 you,5209 who3739 also2532 will do4160 it.

25 Brethren,80 pray4336 for4012 us.2257

26 Greet782 all3956 the3588 brethren80 with1722 a holy40 kiss.5370

27 I charge3726 you5209 by the3588 Lord2962 that this epistle1992 be read314 unto all3956 the3588 holy40 brethren.80

28 The3588 grace5485 of our2257 Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ5547 be with3326 you.5216 Amen.281

1 Thessalonians

Chapter 5

1 But of the times5550 and the seasons,2540 brothers,80 you have2192 no3756 need5532 that I write1125 to you.

2 For yourselves846 know1492 perfectly199 that the day2250 of the Lord2962 so3779 comes2064 as a thief2812 in the night.3571

3 For when3752 they shall say,3004 Peace1515 and safety;803 then5119 sudden160 destruction3639 comes2186 on them, as travail5604 on a woman with child;1722 106 2192 and they shall not 1628escape.

4 But you, brothers,80 are not in darkness,4655 that that day2250 should overtake2638 you as a thief.2812

5 You are all3956 the children5207 of light,5457 and the children5207 of the day:2250 we are not of the night,3571 nor3761 of darkness.4655

6 Therefore686 3767 let us not sleep,2518 as do others;3062 but let us watch1127 and be sober.3525

7 For they that sleep2518 sleep2518 in the night;3571 and they that be drunken3184 are drunken3184 in the night.3571

8 But let us, who are of the day,2250 be sober,3525 putting1746 on1746 the breastplate2382 of faith4102 and love;26 and for an helmet,4030 the hope1680 of salvation.4991

9 For God2316 has not appointed5087 us to wrath,3709 but to obtain4047 salvation4991 by our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547

10 Who3588 died599 for us, that, whether1535 we wake1127 or1535 sleep,2518 we should live2198 together260 with him.

11 Why1352 comfort3870 yourselves240 together,240 and edify3618 one1520 another,1520 even2531 as also2532 you do.4160

12 And we beseech2065 you, brothers,80 to know1492 them which3588 labor2872 among1722 you, and are over4291 you in the Lord,2962 and admonish3560 you;

13 And to esteem2233 them very5228 highly1537 4053 in love26 for their work's2041 sake. And be at1722 peace1518 among1722 yourselves.1438

14 Now1161 we exhort3870 you, brothers,80 warn3560 them that are unruly,813 comfort3888 the feebleminded,3642 support472 the weak,772 be patient3114 toward4314 all3956 men.

15 See3708 that none3361 5100 render591 evil2556 for evil2556 to any5100 man; but ever3842 follow1377 that which3588 is good,18 both2532 among1519 yourselves,1438 and to all3956 men.

16 Rejoice5463 ever more.3842

17 Pray4336 without89 ceasing.89

18 In every3956 thing give thanks:2168 for this5124 is the will2307 of God2316 in Christ5547 Jesus2424 concerning1519 you.

19 Quench4570 not the Spirit.4151

20 Despise1848 not prophesyings.4394

21 Prove1381 all3956 things; hold2722 fast2722 that which3588 is good.2570

22 Abstain567 from all3956 appearance1491 of evil.4190

23 And the very846 God2316 of peace1515 sanctify37 you wholly;3651 and I pray God your3588 whole3648 spirit4151 and soul5590 and body4983 be preserved5083 blameless274 to the coming3952 of our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ.5547

24 Faithful4103 is he that calls2564 you, who3739 also2532 will do4160 it.

25 Brothers,80 pray4336 for us.

26 Greet782 all3956 the brothers80 with an holy40 kiss.5370

27 I charge3726 you by the Lord2962 that this3588 letter1992 be read314 to all3956 the holy40 brothers.80

28 The grace5485 of our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ5547 be with you. Amen.281 The first epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.

1 But of the times5550 and the seasons,2540 brothers,80 you have2192 no3756 need5532 that I write1125 to you.

2 For1063 yourselves846 know1492 perfectly199 that3754 the3588 day2250 of the Lord2962 so3779 cometh2064 as5613 a thief2812 in1722 the night.3571

2 For yourselves846 know1492 perfectly199 that the day2250 of the Lord2962 so3779 comes2064 as a thief2812 in the night.3571

3 For1063 when3752 they shall say,3004 Peace1515 and2532 safety;803 then5119 sudden160 destruction3639 cometh upon2186 them,846 as5618 travail5604 upon a woman with child;2192 1722 1064 and2532 they shall not3364 escape.1628

4 But1161 ye,5210 brethren,80 are2075 not3756 in1722 darkness,4655 that2443 that day2250 should overtake2638 you5209 as5613 a thief.2812

4 But you, brothers,80 are not in darkness,4655 that that day2250 should overtake2638 you as a thief.2812

6 Therefore686 3767 let us not sleep,2518 as do others;3062 but let us watch1127 and be sober.3525

7 For1063 they that sleep2518 sleep2518 in the night;3571 and2532 they that be drunken3182 are drunken3184 in the night.3571

7 For they that sleep2518 sleep2518 in the night;3571 and they that be drunken3184 are drunken3184 in the night.3571

8 But1161 let us,2249 who are5607 of the day,2250 be sober,3525 putting on1746 the breastplate2382 of faith4102 and2532 love;26 and2532 for a helmet,4030 the hope1680 of salvation.4991

9 For God2316 has not appointed5087 us to wrath,3709 but to obtain4047 salvation4991 by our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547

10 Who died599 for5228 us,2257 that,2443 whether1535 we wake1127 or1535 sleep,2518 we should live2198 together260 with4862 him.846

10 Who3588 died599 for us, that, whether1535 we wake1127 or1535 sleep,2518 we should live2198 together260 with him.

11 Wherefore1352 comfort3870 yourselves together,240 and2532 edify3618 one another,1520 1520 even as2531 also2532 ye do.4160
