11 Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus unto the church of the

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

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

Lord Jesus Christ .

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

you in our prayers .

13 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labour of

love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight

of God and our Father .

14 Knowing brethren beloved your election of God .

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

power and in the Holy Ghost and in much assurance as ye know

what manner of men we were among you for your sake .

16 And ye became followers of us and of the Lord having

received the word in much affliction with joy of the Holy Ghost .

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

and Achaia .

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

Macedonia and Achaia but also in every place your faith to God-

ward is spread abroad so that we need not to speak any thing .

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

had unto you and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the

living and true God .

110 And to wait for his Son from heaven whom he raised from the

dead even Jesus which delivered us from the wrath to come .

* 21 For yourselves brethren know our entrance in unto you that

it was not in vain .

22 But even after that we had suffered before and were

shamefully entreated as ye know at Philippi we were bold in our

God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention .

23 For our exhortation was not of deceit nor of uncleanness nor

in guile .

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

gospel even so we speak not as pleasing men but God which trieth

our hearts .

25 For neither at any time used we flattering words as ye know

nor a cloak of covetousness God is witness .

26 Nor of men sought we glory neither of you nor yet of others

when we might have been burdensome as the apostles of Christ .

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

children .

28 So being affectionately desirous of you we were willing to

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

own souls because ye were dear unto us .

29 For ye remember brethren our labour and travail for

labouring night and day because we would not be chargeable unto

any of you we preached unto you the gospel of God .

210 Ye are witnesses and God also how holily and justly and

unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe .

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

one of you as a father doth his children .

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

his kingdom and glory .

213 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing because

when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us ye

received it not as the word of men but as it is in truth the

word of God which effectually worketh also in you that believe .

214 For ye brethren became followers of the churches of 214

For ye brethren became followers of the churches of God which in

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

of your own countrymen even as they have of the Jews .

215 Who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets and

have persecuted us and they please not God and are contrary to

all men .

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

saved to fill up their sins alway for the wrath is come upon

them to the uttermost .

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

presence not in heart endeavoured the more abundantly to see

your face with great desire .

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

again but Satan hindered us .

219 For what is our hope or joy or crown of rejoicing Are not

even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming .

220 For ye are our glory and joy .

* 31 Wherefore when we could no longer forbear we thought it

good to be left at Athens alone .

32 And sent Timotheus our brother and minister of God and our

fellowlabourer in the gospel of Christ to establish you and to

comfort you concerning your faith .

33 That no man should be moved by these afflictions for

yourselves know that we are appointed thereunto .

34 For verily when we were with you we told you before that we

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

35 For this cause when I could no longer forbear I sent to know

your faith lest by some means the tempter have tempted you and

our labour be in vain .

36 But now when Timotheus came from you unto us and brought us

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

remembrance of us always desiring greatly to see us as we also

to see you .

37 Therefore brethren we were comforted over you in all our

affliction and distress by your faith .

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

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

the joy wherewith we joy for your sakes before our God .

310 Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your

face and might perfect that which is lacking in your faith .

311 Now God himself and our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ

direct our way unto you .

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

toward another and toward all men even as we do toward you .

313 To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in

holiness before God even our Father at the coming of our Lord

Jesus Christ with all his saints .

* 41 Furthermore then we beseech you brethren and exhort you by

the Lord Jesus that as ye have received of us how ye ought to

walk and to please God so ye would abound more and more .

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

43 For this is the will of God even your sanctification that ye

should abstain from fornication .

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

in sanctification and honour .

45 Not in the lust of concupiscence even as the Gentiles which

know not God .

46 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter

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

forewarned you and testified .

47 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness but unto

holiness .

48 He therefore that despiseth despiseth not man but God who

hath also given unto us his holy Spirit .

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

you for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another .

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

all Macedonia but we beseech you brethren that ye increase more

and more .

411 And that ye study to be quiet and to do your own business

and to work with your own hands as we commanded you .

412 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without and

that ye may have lack of nothing .

413 But I would not have you to be ignorant brethren concerning

them which are asleep that ye sorrow not even as others which

have no hope .

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

them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him .

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

which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not

prevent them which are asleep .

416 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout

with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God and

the dead in Christ shall rise first .

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

together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and

so shall we ever be with the Lord .

418 Wherefore comfort one another with these words .

* 51 But of the times and the seasons brethren ye have no need

that I write unto you .

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

cometh as a thief in the night .

53 For when they shall say Peace and safety then sudden

destruction cometh upon them as travail upon a woman with child

and they shall not escape .

54 But ye brethren are not in darkness that that day should

overtake you as a thief .

55 Ye are all the children of light and the children of the day

we are not of the night nor of darkness .

56 Therefore let us not sleep as do others but let us watch and

be sober .

57 For they that sleep sleep in the night and they that be

drunken are drunken in the night .

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

breastplate of faith and love and for an helmet the hope of

salvation .

59 For God hath not appointed us to wrath but to obtain

salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ .

510 Who died for us that whether we wake or sleep we should

live together with him .

511 Wherefore comfort yourselves together and edify one another

even as also ye do .

512 And we beseech you brethren to know them which labour among

you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you .

513 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's

sake And be at peace among yourselves .

514 Now we exhort you brethren warn them that are unruly

comfort the feebleminded support the weak be patient toward all

men .

515 See that none render evil for evil unto any man but ever

follow that which is good both among yourselves and to all men .

516 Rejoice evermore .

517 Pray without ceasing .

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

Christ Jesus concerning you .

519 Quench not the Spirit .

520 Despise not prophesyings .

521 Prove all things hold fast that which is good .

522 Abstain from all appearance of evil .

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

God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless

unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ .

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

525 Brethren pray for us .

526 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss .

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

the holy brethren .

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