Return to Index

Chapter 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. 

 


2

 

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

 


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; 

 


4

 

 knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election. 

 


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: 

 


6

 

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

 


7

 

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

 


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; 

 


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, 

 


10

 

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

 


1st Thessalonians 2
