1 Paul, and 2532 Silas, and 2532 Timothy, to the 3588 assembly 1577 of Thessalonians, in 1722 God 2316 the father, 3962 and 2532 in the Lord 2962 Jesus Christ. 5547 Favor 5484 to you, 1473 and 2532 peace 1515 from 575 God 2316 our 1473 father, 3962 and 2532 the Lord 2962 Jesus Christ. 5547
2 We give thanks 2168 to 3588 God 2316 at all times 3842 concerning 4012 all 3956 of you, 1473 [²mention 3417 ³of you 1473 ¹making] 4160 in 1909 3588 our 1473 prayers; 4335
3 continually 89 remembering 3421 your 1473 3588 work 2041 of the 3588 belief, 4102 and 2532 the 3588 toil 2873 of the 3588 love, 26 and 2532 the 3588 endurance 5281 of the 3588 hope 1680 3588 of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5547 before 1715 3588 [²God 2316 ³and 2532 ⁴father 3962 ¹our]. 1473
4 Knowing 1492 brethren, 80 O ones being loved 25 by 5259 God, 2316 3588 of your selection,
5 that 3754 3588 our good news did not 3756 take place 1096 in 1519 you 1473 in 1722 word 3056 only, 3440 but 235 also 2532 in 1722 power, 1411 and 2532 in 1722 [²spirit 4151 ¹holy], 39 and 2532 in 1722 [²full assurance 4136 ¹much]; 4183 as 2531 you know 1492 what 3634 we became 1096 among 1722 you 1473 for 1223 you. 1473
6 And 2532 you 1473 [²imitators 3402 ³of us 1473 ¹became], 1096 and 2532 of the 3588 Lord, 2962 having received 1209 the 3588 word 3056 in 1722 [²affliction 2347 ¹much], 4183 with 3326 joy 5479 [²spirit 4151 ¹of holy], 39
7 so that 5620 you 1473 became 1096 models 5179 to all 3956 the ones 3588 believing 4100 in 1722 3588 Macedonia and 2532 3588 Achaia.
8 [²from 575 ³you 1473 ¹For 1063 ⁸has resounded 1837 ⁴the 3588 ⁵word 3056 ⁶of the 3588 ⁷Lord], 2962 not 3756 only 3440 in 1722 3588 Macedonia but 2532 in 1722 Achaia. But 235 also 2532 in 1722 every 3956 place 5117 the 3588 belief 4102 of yours, 1473 the one 3588 towards 4314 3588 God, 2316 has gone forth, 1831 so as 5620 [³no 3361 ⁴need 5532 ¹for 2192 us 1473 ²to have] 2192 to say 2980 anything. 5100
9 For they themselves [²concerning 4012 ³us 1473 ¹report] 518 as to like what 3697 introduction 1529 we had 2192 towards 4314 you, 1473 and 2532 how 4459 you turned 1994 to 4314 3588 God 2316 from 575 the 3588 idols, 1497 to serve 1398 [⁴God 2316 ¹a living 2198 ²and 2532 ³true], 228
10 and 2532 to await 362 3588 his 1473 son 5207 from out of 1537 the 3588 heavens, 3772 whom 3739 he raised 1453 from 1537 the dead -- 3498 Jesus, the one 3588 rescuing 4506 us 1473 from 575 the 3588 [²wrath 3709 3588 ¹coming]. 2064
1 For you yourselves know, 1492 brethren, 80 3588 our 1473 introduction, 1529 the one 3588 towards 4314 you, 1473 that 3754 [²not 3756 ⁴in vain 2756 ¹it has ³been]; 1096
2 but 235 also 2532 having suffered before, 4310 and 2532 having been insulted, 5195 as 2531 you know, 1492 in 1722 Philippi, we were speaking openly 3955 in 1722 3588 our 1473 God, 2316 to speak 2980 to 4314 you 1473 the 3588 good news 2098 3588 of God 2316 with 1722 much 4183 struggle. 73
3 3588 For 1063 our 1473 exhortation 3874 was not 3756 from out of 1537 delusion, 4106 nor 3761 from out of 1537 uncleanness, 167 nor 3777 in 1722 deceit. 1388
4 But 235 as 2531 having been tried 1381 by 5259 3588 God 2316 to be trusted with 4100 the 3588 good news, 2098 so 3779 we speak; 2980 not 3756 as 5613 [²men 444 ¹pleasing], 700 but 235 to 3588 God, 2316 to the one 3588 trying 1381 3588 our 1473 hearts. 2588
5 For 1063 neither 3777 at any time 4218 with 1722 word 3056 of flattery 2850 did we exist, 1096 as 2531 you know, 1492 nor 3777 with 1722 an excuse 4392 for a desire for wealth, 4124 (God 2316 is witness), 3144
6 nor 3777 seeking 2212 [²from 1537 ³men 444 ¹glory], 1391 nor 3777 from 575 you, 1473 nor 3777 from 575 others; 243 though being able 1410 in 1722 weight 922 to be as 5613 Christ's 5547 apostles. 652
7 But 235 we became 1096 calm 2261 in 1722 your 1473 midst, 3319 as 5613 even 302 a nurse 5162 should comfort 2282 her 1438 own 3588 children. 5043
8 Thus 3779 longing over 2442 you, 1473 we thought well 2106 to share 3330 with you 1473 not 3756 only 3440 the 3588 good news 2098 3588 of God, 2316 but 235 also 2532 3588 our own 1438 lives, 5590 because 1360 [²beloved 27 ³to us 1473 ¹you have become]. 1096
9 For you remember, brethren, 80 3588 our 1473 toil 2873 and 2532 the 3588 trouble, 3449 for 1063 night 3571 and 2532 day 2250 working, 2038 for 4314 the 3588 not 3361 overburdening 1912 any 5100 of you, 1473 we proclaimed 2784 to 1519 you 1473 the 3588 good news 2098 3588 of God. 2316
10 You 1473 are witnesses 3144 and 2532 3588 God, 2316 how 5613 sacredly, 3743 and 2532 justly, 1346 and 2532 blamelessly 274 [²to you 1473 ³the ones 3588 ⁴believing 4100 ¹we were]. 1096
11 Just as 2509 you know, 1492 how 5613 each 1538 one 1520 of you 1473 as 5613 a father 3962 of his own children, we were comforting 3870 you 1473 and 2532 consoling, 3888
12 and 2532 testifying, 3143 for 1519 3588 you to walk worthily 516 3588 of God, 2316 of the one 3588 calling 2564 you 1473 into 1519 3588 his own 1438 kingdom 932 and 2532 glory. 1391
13 On account of 1223 this 3778 also 2532 we 1473 give thanks 2168 to 3588 God 2316 continually, 89 that 3754 taking to yourselves 3880 the word 3056 of report 189 [²by 3844 ³us 1473 3588 ¹of God], 2316 you received 1209 not 3756 the word 3056 of men, 444 but 235 as 2531 it is truly, 230 the word 3056 of God, 2316 which 3739 also 2532 exerts energy 1754 in 1722 you -- 1473 the ones 3588 believing. 4100
14 For 1063 you 1473 [²imitators 3402 ¹became], 1096 brethren, 80 of the 3588 assemblies 1577 3588 of God, 2316 the ones 3588 being in 1722 3588 Judea in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus; that 3754 the same things [³suffered 3958 ²also 2532 ¹you] 1473 by 5259 your 2398 own 3588 fellow-tribesmen, 4853 as 2531 also 2532 they 1473 by 5259 the 3588 Jews,
15 the ones 3588 both 2532 [²the 3588 ³Lord 2962 ¹killing] 615 Jesus, and 2532 their 2398 own 3588 prophets, 4396 and 2532 driving you out, and 2532 [³to God 2316 ¹ are not 3361 ²pleasing], 700 and 2532 [²to all 3956 ³men 444 ¹opposing]; 1727
16 (ones restraining 2967 us 1473 [²to the 3588 ³nations 1484 ¹to speak], 2980 that 2443 they should be delivered,) 4982 so as 1519 3588 to fill up 378 their 1473 3588 sins 266 at all times; 3842 but 1161 came 5348 upon 1909 them 1473 the 3588 wrath 3709 to 1519 the end. 5056
17 But 1161 we, 1473 brethren, 80 being orphaned 642 from 575 you 1473 for 4314 [²time 2540 ¹an hour], 5610 in person, 4383 not 3756 in heart, 2588 more exceedingly 4056 hurried 4704 3588 [²your 1473 face 4383 ¹to behold] 1492 with 1722 much 4183 desire. 1939
18 Therefore 1352 we wanted 2309 to come 2064 to 4314 you -- 1473 even indeed I Paul, even 2532 once 530 and 2532 twice; 1364 and 2532 [²hindered 1465 ³us 1473 3588 ¹Satan]. 4567
19 For what is our 1473 hope, 1680 or 2228 joy, 5479 or 2228 crown 4735 of boasting? 2746 or 2228 is it not 3780 also 2532 you 1473 in front of 1715 3588 our 1473 Lord 2962 Jesus Christ 5547 at 1722 3588 his 1473 arrival? 3952
20 For 1063 you 1473 are 3588 our 1473 glory 1391 and 2532 3588 joy. 5479
1 Therefore 1352 no longer 3371 holding off, 4722 we thought well 2106 to be left behind 2641 in 1722 Athens alone; 3441
2 and 2532 we sent forth 3992 Timothy 3588 our 1473 brother 80 and 2532 servant 1249 3588 of God, 2316 and 2532 our 1473 fellow-worker 4904 in 1722 the 3588 good news 2098 of the 3588 Christ, 5547 for 1519 the 3588 supporting 4741 you, 1473 and 2532 to comfort 3870 you 1473 concerning 4012 the 3588 belief 4102 of yours; 1473
3 in the 3588 no one 3367 shrinking 4525 in 1722 3588 these 3778 afflictions; 2347 for you yourselves know 1492 that 3754 in 1519 this 3778 we are situated. 2749
4 For 1063 also, 2532 when 3753 [²with 4314 ³you 1473 ¹we were], we said beforehand 4302 to you 1473 that 3754 we are about 3195 to be afflicted; 2346 as 2531 also 2532 it happened, 1096 and 2532 you know. 1492
5 Because of 1223 this, 3778 I also 2504 no longer 3371 holding off, 4722 sent forth 3992 for 1519 the 3588 knowing 1097 the 3588 belief 4102 of yours, 1473 lest perhaps 3381 [³tested 3985 ⁴you 1473 ¹the one 3588 ²testing], 3985 and 2532 [³in 1519 ⁴vain 2756 ²became 1096 3588 ¹our 1473 toil]. 2873
6 But 1161 now 737 Timothy having come to 4314 us 1473 from 575 you, 1473 and 2532 having announced good news 2097 to us, 1473 the 3588 belief 4102 and 2532 the 3588 love 26 of yours, 1473 and 2532 that 3754 you have 2192 [³remembrance 3417 ⁴of us 1473 ²a good 18 ¹at all times], 3842 longing 1971 to see us, just as 2509 also 2532 we 1473 you; 1473
7 because of 1223 this 3778 we were comforted, 3870 brethren, 80 over 1909 you 1473 in 1909 all 3956 3588 [²affliction 2347 ³and 2532 ⁴necessity 318 ¹our], 1473 because of 1223 the 3588 belief of yours;
8 for 3754 now 3568 we live 2198 if 1437 you 1473 stand firmly 4739 in 1722 the Lord. 2962
9 For 1063 what 5100 thankfulness 2169 are we able 1410 3588 to recompense God concerning 4012 you, 1473 for 1909 all 3956 the 3588 joy 5479 which 3739 we rejoice 5463 on account of 1223 you 1473 before 1715 3588 our 1473 God, 2316
10 night 3571 and 2532 day 2250 superabundantly beseeching 1189 for 1519 the 3588 beholding 1492 your 1473 3588 face, 4383 and 2532 to ready 2675 the 3588 deficiencies 5303 of the 3588 belief of yours?
11 [⁷himself 1473 ¹And 1161 3588 ⁴God 2316 ⁵and 2532 ⁶father 3962 ³our 1473 ⁸and 2532 3588 ⁹our 1473 Lord 2962 ¹⁰Jesus ¹¹Christ 5547 ²may] straighten out 2720 3588 our 1473 way 3598 to 4314 you. 1473
12 [⁶you 1473 ¹And 1161 ³the 3588 ⁴Lord 2962 ²may ⁵superabound], 4121 and 2532 may he abound 4052 the 3588 love 26 towards 1519 one another, 240 and 2532 towards 1519 all, 3956 just as 2509 also 2532 we 1473 towards 1519 you; 1473
13 so as 1519 3588 to support 4741 your 1473 3588 hearts 2588 blameless 273 in 1722 holiness 42 before 1715 the 3588 God 2316 and 2532 our 1473 father, 3962 at 1722 the 3588 arrival 3952 3588 of our Lord Jesus Christ 5547 with 3326 all 3956 3588 his holy ones.
1 The 3588 rest 3062 then, 3767 brethren, 80 we ask 2065 you 1473 and 2532 appeal 3870 in 1722 the Lord 2962 Jesus, as 2531 you received 3880 from 3844 us 1473 the thing 3588 how 4459 it was necessary for you to walk 4043 and 2532 to please 700 God, 2316 that 2443 you should abound 4052 more. 3123
2 For you know what 5100 exhortations 3852 we gave 1325 to you 1473 through 1223 the 3588 Lord 2962 Jesus.
3 For 1063 this 3778 is the will 2307 3588 of God -- 2316 3588 your 1473 sanctification, 38 for you to be at a distance from 575 3588 harlotry. 4202
4 [³to know 1492 ¹ For each 1538 ²of you] 1473 3588 his own 1438 vessel, 4632 to possess 2932 in 1722 sanctification 38 and 2532 honor, 5092
5 not 3361 in 1722 passion 3806 of desire, 1939 as 2509 even 2532 the 3588 nations, 1484 the ones 3588 not 3361 knowing 1492 3588 God; 2316
6 3588 to not 3361 pass over 5233 and 2532 to overabound 4122 in 1722 the 3588 matter 4229 3588 of his brother; for 1360 the one punishing 1558 is the 3588 Lord 2962 concerning 4012 all 3956 these things , 3778 as 2531 also 2532 we foretold 4277 to you, 1473 and 2532 we testified. 1263
7 [⁵not 3756 ¹For 1063 ³called 2564 ⁴us 1473 3588 ²God] 2316 unto 1909 uncleanness, 167 but 235 in 1722 sanctification. 38
8 Accordingly 5105 the one 3588 disregarding, 114 [²not 3756 ³man 444 ¹disregards], 114 but 235 3588 God, 2316 the one 3588 also 2532 having given 1325 3588 [³spirit 4151 ¹his 1473 3588 ²holy] 39 to 1519 us. 1473
9 And 1161 concerning 4012 3588 brotherly affection 5360 [²no 3756 ³need 5532 ¹you have] 2192 for me to write 1125 to you; 1473 [³yourselves 1473 ¹for 1063 ²you] 1473 are taught by God 1519 3588 to love 25 one another. 240
10 For 1063 also 2532 you do 4160 this 1473 towards 1519 all 3956 the 3588 brethren, 80 the ones 3588 in 1722 all 3650 3588 Macedonia! But we appeal to you, 1473 brethren, 80 to abound 4052 more, 3123
11 and 2532 to strive earnestly 5389 to be quiet, 2270 and 2532 to do 4238 your own things , and 2532 to work 2038 with 3588 [²own 2398 ³hands 5495 ¹your], 1473 as 2531 we exhorted to you;
12 that 2443 you should walk 4043 decently 2156 towards 4314 the ones 3588 outside, 1854 and 2532 no one 3367 [²need 5532 ¹should have]. 2192
13 [²I do not 3756 ³want 2309 ¹But] 1161 you 1473 to be ignorant, 50 brethren, 80 concerning 4012 the ones 3588 having gone to sleep, 2837 that 2443 you do not 3361 fret 3076 as 2531 even 2532 the 3588 rest, 3062 the ones 3588 not 3361 having 2192 hope. 1680
14 For 1063 if 1487 we believe 4100 that 3754 Jesus died 599 and 2532 rose up, 450 so 3779 also 2532 3588 God 2316 [⁴the ones 3588 ⁵having gone to sleep 2837 ⁶through 1223 3588 ⁷Jesus ¹will bring 71 ²with 4862 ³him]. 1473
15 For 1063 this 3778 to you 1473 we say 3004 by 1722 word 3056 of the Lord, 2962 that 3754 we, 1473 the ones 3588 living, 2198 the ones 3588 remaining 4035 at 1519 the 3588 arrival 3952 of the 3588 Lord, 2962 in no way should anticipate 5348 the ones 3588 having gone to sleep. 2837
16 For 3754 [³himself 1473 ¹the 3588 ²Lord] 2962 in 1722 a word of command 2752 by 1722 the voice 5456 of an archangel, 743 and 2532 with 1722 a trumpet 4536 of God, 2316 shall descend 2597 from 575 heaven, 3772 and 2532 the 3588 dead 3498 in 1722 Christ 5547 shall rise up 450 first. 4412
17 Thereupon 1899 we 1473 the 3588 living, 2198 the ones 3588 remaining, 4035 together 260 with 4862 them 1473 shall be seized 726 in 1722 clouds, 3507 for 1519 meeting 529 the 3588 Lord 2962 in 1519 the air, 109 and 2532 thus 3779 at all times 3842 with 4862 the Lord 2962 we shall be.
18 So then 5620 comfort 3870 one another 240 by 1722 3588 these 3778 words! 3056
1 But 1161 concerning 4012 the 3588 times 5550 and 2532 the 3588 seasons, 2540 brethren, 80 [²no 3756 ³need 5532 ¹You have 2192 ⁵to you 1473 ⁴to be written], 1125
2 [³yourselves 1473 ¹for 1063 ⁵exactly 199 ²you ⁴know] 1492 that 3754 the 3588 day 2250 of the Lord 2962 [³as 5613 ⁴a thief 2812 ⁵in 1722 ⁶ the night 3571 ¹so 3779 ²comes]. 2064
3 For 1063 whenever 3752 they should say, 3004 Peace 1515 and 2532 safety, 803 then 5119 sudden 160 [²sets upon them ¹ruin], 3639 as if 5618 the 3588 pangs 5604 to the one 3588 [²in 1722 ³ the womb 1064 ¹having one ]; 2192 and 2532 in no way should they flee from it . 1628
4 But 1161 you, 1473 brethren, 80 are not 3756 in 1722 darkness, 4655 that 2443 the 3588 day 2250 [²you 1473 ³as 5613 ⁴a thief 2812 ¹should overtake]. 2638
