ISA-11:9 ...for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD,

as the waters cover the sea.

Copyright (c) 1985-2007

1TH 1:1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of

the

*3972 *4610 *5095 *1577

Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus

Christ:

*2331 *2316 *3962 *2962

*2424 *5547

Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the

Lord Jesus

*5485 *1515 *2316 *3962

*2962 *2424

Christ.

*5547

2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of

you in our

*2168 *2316 *3842 *3956 *4160 *3417

prayers;

*4335

3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of

love, and

*3421 *0089 *0089 *5209 *2041 *4102

*2873 *0026

patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God

and our

*5281 *1680 *2962 *2424 *5547 *1715

*2316

Father;

*3962

4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

*1492 *0080 *0025 *5216 *1589 *2316

5 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in

power, and in

*2098 *1096 *3056 *3440 *2532

*1411

the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner

of men we

*0040 *4151 *4183 *4136 *1492 *3634

*3634

were among you for your sake.

*1722 *5209

6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having

received the word

*1096 *3402 *2962

*1209 *3056

in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.

*4183 *2347 *5479 *0040 *4151

7 So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia

and Achaia.

*5620 *5179 *3956 *4100 *3109

*0882

8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in

Macedonia and

*1837 *3056 *2962 *3440

*3109

Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is

spread abroad; so

*0882 *2532 *3956 *5117 *5216 *4102 *2316

*1831 *1831 *5620

that we need not to speak any thing.

*5532 *2980 *5100

9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we

had unto

*0846 *0518 *3697 *3697 *1529

*2192

you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living

and true God;

*4459 *1994 *2316 *1497 *1398

*2198 *0558 *2316

10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from

the dead, even

*0362 *5207 *3772 *3739 *1453

*3498

Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.

*2424 *3588 *4506 *3709 *2064

2:1 For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you,

that it was not

*0846 *0080 *1492 *1529

in vain:

*2756

2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were

shamefully entreated,

*2532 *4310 *4310 *5195

*5195

as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak

unto you the

*1492 *1722 *5375 *3955 *2316

*2980

gospel of God with much contention.

*2098 *2316 *4183 *0073

3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness,

nor in guile:

*3874 *4106 *3761 *0167

*3777 *1388

4 But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the

gospel, even

*1381 *2316 *4160 *4100

*2098

so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our

hearts.

*3779 *2980 *0700 *0444 *2316 *1381

*2588

5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye

know, nor a

*3777 *4218 *4218 *4218 *1722 *2850 *3056

*1492 *3777

cloke of covetousness; God is witness:

*4392 *4124 *2316 *3144

6 Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of

others, when we

*3777 *0444 *2212 *1391 *3777 *3777

*0243

might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.

*1410 *0922 *0652 *5547

7 But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her

children:

*2261 *3319 *5162 *2282

*5043

8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to

have

*3779 *2442 *2442 *2106

imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our

own souls,

*3330 *2098 *2316 *3440 *2532

*1438 *5590

because ye were dear unto us.

*1360 *0027

9 For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for

labouring night

*3421 *0080 *2873 *3449

*2873 *3571

and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you,

we preached

*2250 *4314 *1912 *5100

*2784

unto you the gospel of God.

*2098 *2316

10 Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and

unblameably

*3144 *2316 *2532 *5613 *3743 *1346

*0274

we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

*1096 *4100

11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every

one of you,

*1492 *5613 *3888 *3146

*1538 *1520

as a father doth his children,

*3962 *5043

12 That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto

his kingdom

*4043 *0516 *2316 *3588 *2564

*0932

and glory.

*1391

13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because,

when ye

*5124 *1223 *2532 *2168 *2316 *0089 *0089

*3754

received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it

not as the

*3880 *3056 *2316 *0189 *1209

word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which

effectually

*3056 *0444 *0230 *3056 *2316 *3739

*1754

worketh also in you that believe.

*1754 *2532 *4100

14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of God

which in

*0080 *1096 *3402 *1577

*2316 *3588

Judaea are in Christ Jesus: for ye also have suffered like

things of your

*2449 *5547 *2424 *2532 *3958

*5024 *2398

own countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:

*2398 *4853 *2532 *2453

15 Who both killed the Lord Jesus, and their own prophets,

and have

*3588 *2532 *0615 *2962 *2424 *2398 *4396

persecuted us; and they please not God, and are contrary to all

men:

*1559 *0700 *2316 *1727

*3956 *0444

16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be

saved, to fill

*2967 *2980 *1484

*4982 *0378

up their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the

uttermost.

*0266 *0104 *3709 *5348

*5056

17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in

presence, not

*0080 *0642 *5610 *2540

*4383

in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face

with great

*2588 *4704 *4056 *4056 *1492 *5216

*4383 *4183

desire.

*1939

18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and

again; but

*1352 *2309 *2064 *3303 *3972

*0530 *1364

Satan hindered us.

*4567 *1465

19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are

not even ye

*5101 *1680 *2228 *5479 *2228 *4735 *2746

*2532

in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?

*1715 *2962 *2424 *5547 *1722 *3952

20 For ye are our glory and joy.

*1391 *5479

3:1 Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it

good to be

*1352 *3370 *3370 *4722 *2106

*2106

left at Athens alone;

*2641 *1722 *0116 *3441

2 And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our

*3992 *5095 *0080 *1249 *2316

fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and

to comfort

*4904 *2098 *5547 *4741

*3870

you concerning your faith:

*4012 *5216 *4102

3 That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for

yourselves know

*3367 *3367 *4525 *5025 *2347

*0846 *1492

that we are appointed thereunto.

*2749 *5124

4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we

should

*2532 *3753 *4302 *4302

*3195

suffer tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.

*2346 *2532 *1096 *1492

5 For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to

know your

*5124 *1223 *3370 *3370 *4722

*0375 *1097 *5216

faith, lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our

labour be

*4102 *3381 *3381 *4458 *3985 *3985

*2873

in vain.

*2756

6 But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us

good

*0737 *5095 *2064 *2097

*2097

tidings of your faith and charity, and that ye have good

remembrance of us

*2097 *5216 *4102 *0026 *2192 *0018

*3417

always, desiring greatly to see us, as we also to see you:

*3842 *1971 *1971 *1492 *2532

7 Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our

affliction

*5124 *0080 *3870 *1909 *3956

*2347

and distress by your faith:

*0318 *5216 *4102

8 For now we live, if ye stand fast in the Lord.

*3568 *2198 *1437 *4739 *2962

9 For what thanks can we render to God again for you, for all

the joy

*5101 *2169 *1410 *0467 *2316 *0467

*3956 *5479

wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God;

*3739 *5463 *5209 *1715 *2316

10 Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your

face, and

*3571 *2250 *1189 *4053 *1492

*5216 *4383

might perfect that which is lacking in your faith?

*2675 *5303 *5216 *4102

11 Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,

direct our

*1161 *2316 *0846 *3962 *2962 *2424

*5547 *2720

way unto you.

*3598

12 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one

toward another,

*2962 *4121 *4121 *4052 *0026

*0240 *1519 *0240

and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

*1519 *3956 *2532 *1519

13 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in

holiness before

*1519 *4741 *5216 *2588 *0299

*0042 *1715

God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ

with all his

*2316 *2532 *3962 *1722 *3952 *2962 *2424

*5547 *3956

saints.

*0040

4:1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you

by the Lord

*3063 *3767 *2065 *0080 *3870

*2962

Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and

to please

*2424 *3880 *4459 *1163

*4043 *0700

God, so ye would abound more and more.

*2316 *4052 *3123 *3123

2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

*1492 *5101 *3852 *1325 *2962

*2424

3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that

ye should

*5124 *2307 *2316 *5216 *0038

abstain from fornication:

*0567 *4202

4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in

*1538 *1492 *2932 *4632

sanctification and honour;

*0038 *5092

5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which

know not God:

*3806 *1939 *2532 *1484

*3588 *1492 *2316

6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any

matter: because

*3361 *5233 *5233 *4122 *0080

*4229 *1360

that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have

forewarned you

*2962 *1558 *3956 *5130 *2532

*4277

and testified.

*1263

7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto

holiness.

*2316 *2564 *0167

*0038

8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who

hath also

*5105 *0114 *0114 *0444 *2316

*2532

given unto us his holy Spirit.

*1325 *0040 *4151

9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto

you: for ye

*4012 *5360 *5360 *5532 *1125

yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

*0846 *2312 *2312 *0025 *0240 *0240

10 And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in

all

*1063 *4160 *1519 *3956 *0080 *3588

*3650

Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more

and more;

*3109 *3870 *0080 *4052

*3123 *3123

11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own

business, and to

*5389 *2270 *4238 *2398 *2398

*2398

work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

*2038 *2398 *2398 *5495 *3853

12 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and

that ye may

*4043 *2156 *4314 *1854

have lack of nothing.

*2192 *5332 *3367

13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren,

concerning them which

*2309 *0050 *0080 *4012

are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no

hope.

*2837 *3076 *2532 *3062 *3588 *2192

*3361 *1680

14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so

them also

*1487 *4100 *2424 *0599 *0450 *0450

*3779 *2532

which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

*2838 *2424 *2316 *0071

15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we

which are

*5124 *3004 *3056 *2962

*3588

alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent

them which

*2198 *4035 *3952 *2962

*5348 *3588

are asleep.

*2837

16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,

with the

*2962 *0846 *2597 *3772

*2752

voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead

in Christ

*5456 *0743 *4536 *2316

*3498 *5547

shall rise first:

*0450 *4412

17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up

together with them

*1899 *3588 *2198 *4035 *0726

*0260

in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we

ever be with

*3507 *0529 *2962 *0109 *3779

*3842

the Lord.

*2962

18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

*5620 *3870 *0240 *0240 *5125 *3056

5:1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no

need that I

*2540 *2540 *0080 *2192

*3756 *5532

write unto you.

*1125

2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so

cometh as a

*0846 *1492 *0199 *2250 *2962

*3779 *2064

thief in the night.

*2812 *3571

3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden

destruction cometh

*3752 *3004 *1515 *0803 *5119 *0160

*3639 *2186

upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall

not escape.

*5604 *1064

*1628

4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should

overtake you

*0080 *4655 *2250

*2638

as a thief.

*2812

5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the

day: we are

*3956 *5207 *5457 *5207

*2250

not of the night, nor of darkness.

*3571 *3761 *4655

6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch

and be sober.

*3767 *2518 *3062 *1127

*3525

7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be

drunken are

*2518 *2518 *3571

*3184

drunken in the night.

*3184 *3571

8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the

breastplate of

*2250 *3525 *1746 *1746

*2382

faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.

*4102 *0026 *4030 *1680 *4991

9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain

salvation by our

*2316 *5087 *3709 *4047

*4991

Lord Jesus Christ,

*2962 *2424 *5547

10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we

should live

*3588 *0599 *1535 *1127 *1535 *2518

*2198

together with him.

*0260

11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one

another, even as

*1352 *3870 *0240 *0240 *3618 *1520

*1520 *2531

also ye do.

*2532 *4160

12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour

among you, and

*2065 *0080 *1492 *3588 *2872

*1722

are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

*4291 *2962 *3560

13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake.

And be at

*2233 *5228 *4053 *0026 *2041

*1722

peace among yourselves.

*1518 *1722 *1438

14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly,

comfort the

*1161 *3870 *0080 *3560 *0814

*3888

feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.

*3642 *0472 *0772 *3114 *4314 *3956

15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever

follow that

*3708 *5100 *0591 *2556 *2556 *5100

*3842 *1377

which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.

*3588 *0018 *2532 *1519 *1438 *3956

16 Rejoice evermore.

*5463 *3842

17 Pray without ceasing.

*4336 *0089 *0089

18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in

Christ Jesus

*3956 *2168 *5124 *2307

*2316 *5547 *2424

concerning you.

*1519

19 Quench not the Spirit.

*4570 *4151

20 Despise not prophesyings.

*1848 *4394

21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

*1381 *3956 *2722 *2722 *3588 *2570

22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.

*0567 *3956 *1491 *4190

23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray

God your

*0846 *2316 *1515 *0037 *3651

*3588

whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the

coming of

*3648 *4151 *5590 *4983 *5083 *0274

*3952

our Lord Jesus Christ.

*2962 *2424 *5547

24 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.

*4103 *2564 *3739 *2532 *4160

25 Brethren, pray for us.

*0080 *4336

26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.

*0782 *3956 *0080 *0040 *5370

27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all

the holy

*3726 *2962 *3588 *1992 *0314

*3956 *0040

brethren.

*0080

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

*5485 *2962 *2424 *5547 *0281
