5:1 But 1161 of 4012 the times 5550 and 2532 the seasons 2540, brethren 80, ye have 2192 5719 no 3756 need 5532 that I write 1125 5745 unto you 5213.

5:2 For 1063 yourselves 846 know 1492 5758 perfectly 199 that 3754 the day 2250 of the Lord 2962 so 3779 cometh 2064 5736 as 5613 a thief 2812 in 1722 the night 3571.

5:3 For 1063 when 3752 they shall say 3004 5725, Peace 1515 and 2532 safety 803; then 5119 sudden 160 destruction 3639 cometh upon 2186 5731 them 846, as 5618 travail 5604 upon 1722 a woman with child 1064 2192 5723; and 2532 they shall 1628 0 not 3364 escape 1628 5632.

5:4 But 1161 ye 5210, brethren 80, are 2075 5748 not 3756 in 1722 darkness 4655, that 2443 that day 2250 should overtake 2638 5632 you 5209 as 5613 a thief 2812.

5:5 Ye 5210 are 2075 5748 all 3956 the children 5207 of light 5457, and 2532 the children 5207 of the day 2250: we are 2070 5748 not 3756 of the night 3571, nor 3761 of darkness 4655.

5:6 Therefore 686 3767 let us 2518 0 not 3361 sleep 2518 5725, as 5613 2532 [do] others 3062; but 235 let us watch 1127 5725 and 2532 be sober 3525 5725.

5:7 For 1063 they that sleep 2518 5723 sleep 2518 5719 in the night 3571; and 2532 they that be drunken 3182 5746 are drunken 3184 5719 in the night 3571.

5:8 But 1161 let 3525 0 us 2249, who are 5607 5752 of the day 2250, be sober 3525 5725, putting on 1746 5671 the breastplate 2382 of faith 4102 and 2532 love 26; and 2532 for an helmet 4030, the hope 1680 of salvation 4991.

5:9 For 3754 God 2316 hath 5087 0 not 3756 appointed 5087 5639 us 2248 to 1519 wrath 3709, but 235 to 1519 obtain 4047 salvation 4991 by 1223 our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547,

5:10 Who 3588 died 599 5631 for 5228 us 2257, that 2443, whether 1535 we wake 1127 5725 or 1535 sleep 2518 5725, we should live 2198 5661 together 260 with 4862 him 846.

5:11 Wherefore 1352 comfort 3870 5720 yourselves together 240, and 2532 edify 3618 5720 one 1520 another 1520, even 2531 as also 2532 ye do 4160 5719.(comfort: or, exhort)

5:12 And 1161 we beseech 2065 5719 you 5209, brethren 80, to know 1492 5760 them which 3588 labour 2872 5723 among 1722 you 5213, and 2532 are over 4291 5734 you 5216 in 1722 the Lord 2962, and 2532 admonish 3560 5723 you 5209;

5:13 And 2532 to esteem 2233 5738 them 846 very 5228 highly 1537 4053 in 1722 love 26 for 1223 their 846 work's sake 2041. [And] be at peace 1514 5720 among 1722 yourselves 1438.

5:14 Now 1161 we exhort 3870 5719 you 5209, brethren 80, warn 3560 5720 them that are unruly 813, comfort 3888 5737 the feebleminded 3642, support 472 5737 the weak 772, be patient 3114 5720 toward 4314 all 3956 [men].(exhort: or, beseech)(unruly: or, disorderly)

5:15 See 3708 5720 that none 3361 5100 render 591 5632 evil 2556 for 473 evil 2556 unto any 5100 [man]; but 235 ever 3842 follow 1377 5720 that which 3588 is good 18, both 2532 among 1519 yourselves 240, and 2532 to 1519 all 3956 [men].

5:16 Rejoice 5463 5720 evermore 3842.

5:17 Pray 4336 5737 without ceasing 89.

5:18 In 1722 every thing 3956 give thanks 2168 5720: for 1063 this 5124 is the will 2307 of God 2316 in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus 2424 concerning 1519 you 5209.

5:19 Quench 4570 5720 not 3361 the Spirit 4151.

5:20 Despise 1848 5720 not 3361 prophesyings 4394.

5:21 Prove 1381 5720 all things 3956; hold fast 2722 5720 that which 3588 is good 2570.

5:22 Abstain 567 5732 from 575 all 3956 appearance 1491 of evil 4190.

5:23 And 1161 the very 846 God 2316 of peace 1515 sanctify 37 5659 you 5209 wholly 3651; and 2532 [I pray God] your 5216 whole 3648 spirit 4151 and 2532 soul 5590 and 2532 body 4983 be preserved 5083 5684 blameless 274 unto 1722 the coming 3952 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547.

5:24 Faithful 4103 [is] he that calleth 2564 5723 you 5209, who 3739 also 2532 will do 4160 5692 [it].

5:25 Brethren 80, pray 4336 5737 for 4012 us 2257.

5:26 Greet 782 5663 all 3956 the brethren 80 with 1722 an holy 40 kiss 5370.

5:27 I charge 3726 5719 you 5209 by the Lord 2962 that this epistle 1992 be read 314 5683 unto all 3956 the holy 40 brethren 80.(charge: or, adjure)

5:28 The grace 5485 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 [be] with 3326 you 5216. Amen 281. {The first 4413 epistle to 4314 the Thessalonians 2331 was written 1125 5648 from 575 Athens 116.}
