| |
| | 1Th 5:1 | But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that aught be written unto you.
| |
| | 1Th 5:2 | For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
| |
| | 1Th 5:3 | When they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall in no wise escape.
| |
| | 1Th 5:4 | But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief:
| |
| | 1Th 5:5 | for ye are all sons of light, and sons of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness;
| |
| | 1Th 5:6 | so then let us not sleep, as do the rest, but let us watch and be sober.
| |
| | 1Th 5:7 | For they that sleep sleep in the night: and they that are drunken are drunken in the night.
| |
| | 1Th 5:8 | But let us, since we are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
| |
| | 1Th 5:9 | For God appointed us not into wrath, but unto the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
| |
| | 1Th 5:10 | who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
| |
| | 1Th 5:11 | Wherefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as also ye do.
| |
| | 1Th 5:12 | But we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
| |
| | 1Th 5:13 | and to esteem them exceeding highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
| |
| | 1Th 5:14 | And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the fainthearted, support the weak, be longsuffering toward all.
| |
| | 1Th 5:15 | See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all.
| |
| | 1Th 5:16 | Rejoice always;
| |
| | 1Th 5:17 | pray without ceasing;
| |
| | 1Th 5:18 | in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward.
| |
| | 1Th 5:19 | Quench not the Spirit;
| |
| | 1Th 5:20 | despise not prophesyings;
| |
| | 1Th 5:21 | prove all things; hold fast that which is good;
| |
| | 1Th 5:22 | abstain from every form of evil.
| |
| | 1Th 5:23 | And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
| |
| | 1Th 5:24 | Faithful is he that calleth you, who will also do it.
| |
| | 1Th 5:25 | Brethren, pray for us.
| |
| | 1Th 5:26 | Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss.
| |
| | 1Th 5:27 | I adjure you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the brethren.
| |
| | 1Th 5:28 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
