Request for Prayer
As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.
As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.
Paul's Request for Prayer
For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also with you;
For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also with you;
And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith.
and that we may be delivered from bad and evil men, for faith [is] not [the portion] of all.
But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.
But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you and keep [you] from evil.
We have confidence in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command.
But we trust in the Lord as to you, that the things which we enjoin, ye both do and will do.
May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.
But the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of the Christ.
Warning against Idleness
Now we enjoin you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us.
Now we enjoin you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us.
For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example. We were not idle when we were with you,
For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us, because we have not walked disorderly among you;
nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you.
nor have we eaten bread from any one without cost; but in toil and hardship working night and day not to be chargeable to any one of you:
We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate.
not that we have not the right, but that we might give ourselves as an example to you, in order to your imitating us.
For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”
For also when we were with you we enjoined you this, that if any man does not like to work, neither let him eat.
We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies.
For we hear that [there are] some walking among you disorderly, not working at all, but busybodies.
Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the food they eat.
Now such we enjoin and exhort in [the] Lord Jesus Christ, that working quietly they eat their own bread.
And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.
But *ye*, brethren, do not faint in well-doing.
Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them, in order that they may feel ashamed.
But if any one obey not our word by the letter, mark that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed of himself;
Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.
and do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish [him] as a brother.
Final Greetings
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
Paul's Final Greetings
But the Lord of peace himself give you peace continually in every way. The Lord [be] with you all.
But the Lord of peace himself give you peace continually in every way. The Lord [be] with you all.
I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand, which is the distinguishing mark in all my letters. This is how I write.
The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is [the] mark in every letter; so I write.
