TH1 5-1 | But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. |
TH1 5-2 | For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. |
TH1 5-3 | For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. |
TH1 5-4 | But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. |
TH1 5-5 | Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. |
TH1 5-6 | Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. |
TH1 5-7 | For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. |
TH1 5-8 | But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. |
TH1 5-9 | For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, |
TH1 5-10 | Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. |
TH1 5-11 | Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. |
TH1 5-12 | And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; |
TH1 5-13 | And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves. |
TH1 5-14 | Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men. |
TH1 5-15 | See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. |
TH1 5-16 | Rejoice evermore. |
TH1 5-17 | Pray without ceasing. |
TH1 5-18 | In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. |
TH1 5-19 | Quench not the Spirit. |
TH1 5-20 | Despise not prophesyings. |
TH1 5-21 | Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. |
TH1 5-22 | Abstain from all appearance of evil. |
TH1 5-23 | And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
TH1 5-24 | Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it. |
TH1 5-25 | Brethren, pray for us. |
TH1 5-26 | Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss. |
TH1 5-27 | I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren. |
TH1 5-28 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. |
