| | 1Th 1:1 | Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the assembly of Thessalonians in God [the] Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to you and peace.
| |
| | 1Th 1:2 | We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you at our prayers,
| |
| | 1Th 1:3 | 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;
| |
| | 1Th 1:4 | knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election.
| |
| | 1Th 1:5 | 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:
| |
| | 1Th 1:6 | and *ye* became our imitators, and of the Lord, having accepted the word in much tribulation with joy of [the] Holy Spirit,
| |
| | 1Th 1:7 | so that ye became models to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia:
| |
| | 1Th 1:8 | 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;
| |
| | 1Th 1:9 | 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,
| |
| | 1Th 1:10 | and to await his Son from the heavens, whom he raised from among the dead, Jesus, our deliverer from the coming wrath.
