Paul and Silvanus and Timothy,
To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you at our prayers,

We give thanks to God always for all of you, making mention of you in our prayers;

remembering unceasingly your work of faith, and labour of love, and enduring constancy of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

constantly bearing in mind your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father,

knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election.

knowing, brethren beloved by God, His choice of you;

For our glad tidings were not with you in word only, but also in power, and in [the] Holy Spirit, and in much assurance; even as ye know what we were among you for your sakes:

for our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

and *ye* became our imitators, and of the Lord, having accepted the word in much tribulation with joy of [the] Holy Spirit,

You also became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation with the joy of the Holy Spirit,

so that ye became models to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia:

so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.

for the word of the Lord sounded out from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith which [is] towards God has gone abroad, so that we have no need to say anything;

For the word of the Lord has sounded forth from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything.

for they themselves relate concerning us what entering in we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God,

For they themselves report about us what kind of a reception we had with you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God,

and to await his Son from the heavens, whom he raised from among the dead, Jesus, our deliverer from the coming wrath.

and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come.
