- 1Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:Τὸ προσεύχεσθε ἀδελφοί περὶ ἡμῶν ἵνα ὁ λόγος τοῦ κυρίου τρέχῃ καὶ δοξάζηται καθὼς καὶ πρὸς ὑμᾶς
- 2And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.καὶ ἵνα ῥυσθῶμεν ἀπὸ τῶν ἀτόπων καὶ πονηρῶν ἀνθρώπων οὐ γὰρ πάντων ἡ πίστις
- 3But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.πιστὸς δέ ἐστιν ὁ κύριος ὃς στηρίξει ὑμᾶς καὶ φυλάξει ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ
- 4And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.πεποίθαμεν δὲ ἐν κυρίῳ ἐφ’ ὑμᾶς ὅτι ἃ ⸀παραγγέλλομεν καὶ ποιεῖτε καὶ ποιήσετε
- 5And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.ὁ δὲ κύριος κατευθύναι ὑμῶν τὰς καρδίας εἰς τὴν ἀγάπην τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ εἰς τὴν ὑπομονὴν τοῦ Χριστοῦ
- 6Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.Παραγγέλλομεν δὲ ὑμῖν ἀδελφοί ἐν ὀνόματι τοῦ κυρίου ⸀ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ παντὸς ἀδελφοῦ ἀτάκτως περιπατοῦντος καὶ μὴ κατὰ τὴν παράδοσιν ἣν ⸀παρελάβοσαν παρ’ ἡμῶν
- 7For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;αὐτοὶ γὰρ πῶς δεῖ μιμεῖσθαι ἡμᾶς ὅτι οὐκ ἠτακτήσαμεν ἐν ὑμῖν
- 8Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:οὐδὲ δωρεὰν ἄρτον ἐφάγομεν παρά ἀλλ’ ἐν κόπῳ καὶ μόχθῳ ⸂νυκτὸς καὶ ἡμέρας⸃ ἐργαζόμενοι πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἐπιβαρῆσαί ὑμῶν
- 9Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.οὐχ ὅτι οὐκ ἔχομεν ἐξουσίαν ἀλλ’ ἵνα ἑαυτοὺς τύπον δῶμεν ὑμῖν εἰς τὸ μιμεῖσθαι ἡμᾶς
- 10For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.καὶ γὰρ ὅτε ἦμεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοῦτο παρηγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν ὅτι εἴ οὐ θέλει ἐργάζεσθαι μηδὲ ἐσθιέτω
- 11For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.ἀκούομεν γάρ περιπατοῦντας ἐν ὑμῖν ἀτάκτως μηδὲν ἐργαζομένους ἀλλὰ περιεργαζομένους
- 12Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.τοῖς δὲ τοιούτοις παραγγέλλομεν καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν ⸂ἐν κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ Χριστῷ⸃ ἵνα μετὰ ἡσυχίας ἐργαζόμενοι τὸν ἑαυτῶν ἄρτον ἐσθίωσιν
- 13But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.ὑμεῖς δέ ἀδελφοί μὴ καλοποιοῦντες
- 14And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.Εἰ δέ οὐχ ὑπακούει τῷ λόγῳ ἡμῶν διὰ τῆς ἐπιστολῆς τοῦτον ⸀μὴ ⸀συναναμίγνυσθαι αὐτῷ ἵνα ἐντραπῇ
- 15Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.καὶ μὴ ὡς ἐχθρὸν ἡγεῖσθε ἀλλὰ νουθετεῖτε ὡς ἀδελφόν
- 16Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.Αὐτὸς δὲ ὁ κύριος τῆς εἰρήνης δῴη ὑμῖν τὴν εἰρήνην διὰ παντὸς ἐν παντὶ τρόπῳ ὁ κύριος μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν
- 17The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.Ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ Παύλου ὅ ἐστιν σημεῖον ἐν πάσῃ ἐπιστολῇ γράφω
- 18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. «The second epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.»ἡ χάρις τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ πάντων ⸀ὑμῶν
