1 Thessalonians 4:1--5:28

Furthermore
<3063>

then
<3767>

we beseech
<2065> (5719)

you
<5209>_,

brethren
<80>_,

and
<2532>

exhort
<3870> (5719)

[you] by
<1722>

the Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>_,

that as
<2531>

ye have received
<3880> (5627)

of
<3844>

us
<2257>

how
<4459>

ye
<5209>

ought
<1163> (5748)

to walk
<4043> (5721)

and
<2532>

to please
<700> (5721)

God
<2316>_,

[so]
<2443>

ye would abound
<4052> (5725)

more and more
<3123>_.

{beseech: or, request} {exhort: or, beseech}

For
<1063>

ye know
<1492> (5758)

what
<5101>

commandments
<3852>

we gave
<1325> (5656)

you
<5213>

by
<1223>

the Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>_.

For
<1063>

this
<5124>

is
<2076> (5748)

the will
<2307>

of God
<2316>_,

[even] your
<5216>

sanctification
<38>_,

that ye
<5209>

should abstain
<567> (5733)

from
<575>

fornication
<4202>_:

That every one
<1538>

of you
<5216>

should know
<1492> (5760)

how to possess
<2932> (5738)

his
<1438>

vessel
<4632>

in
<1722>

sanctification
<38>

and
<2532>

honour
<5092>_;

Not
<3361>

in
<1722>

the lust
<3806>

of concupiscence
<1939>_,

even
<2532>

as
<2509>

the Gentiles
<1484>

which
<3588>

know
<1492> (5761)

not
<3361>

God
<2316>_:

That no
<3361>

[man] go beyond
<5233> (5721)

and
<2532>

defraud
<4122> (5721)

his
<846>

brother
<80>

in
<1722>

[any] matter
<4229>_:

because
<1360>

that the Lord
<2962>

[is] the avenger
<1558>

of
<4012>

all
<3956>

such
<5130>_,

as
<2531>

we
<4277> (0)

also
<2532>

have forewarned
<4277> (5656)

you
<5213>

and
<2532>

testified
<1263> (5662)_.

{defraud: or, oppress, or, overreach} {in...: or, in the matter}

For
<1063>

God
<2316>

hath
<2564> (0)

not
<3756>

called
<2564> (5656)

us
<2248>

unto
<1909>

uncleanness
<167>_,

but
<235>

unto
<1722>

holiness
<38>_.

He therefore
<5105>

that despiseth
<114> (5723)_,

despiseth
<114> (5719)

not
<3756>

man
<444>_,

but
<235>

God
<2316>_,

who hath
<1325> (0)

also
<2532>

given
<1325> (5631)

unto
<1519>

us
<2248>

his
<846>

holy
<40>

Spirit
<4151>_.

{despiseth: or, rejecteth}

But
<1161>

as touching
<4012>

brotherly love
<5360>

ye need
<2192> (5719) <5532>

not
<3756>

that I write
<1125> (5721)

unto you
<5213>_:

for
<1063>

ye
<5210>

yourselves
<846>

are
<2075> (5748)

taught of God
<2312>

to
<1519>

love
<25> (5721)

one another
<240>_.

And
<2532>

indeed
<1063>

ye do
<4160> (5719)

it
<846>

toward
<1519>

all
<3956>

the brethren
<80>

which
<3588>

are in
<1722>

all
<3650>

Macedonia
<3109>_:

but
<1161>

we beseech
<3870> (5719)

you
<5209>_,

brethren
<80>_,

that ye increase
<4052> (5721)

more and more
<3123>_;

And
<2532>

that ye study
<5389> (5738)

to be quiet
<2270> (5721)_,

and
<2532>

to do
<4238> (5721)

your own business
<2398>_,

and
<2532>

to work with
<2038> (5738)

your
<5216>

own
<2398>

hands
<5495>_,

as
<2531>

we commanded
<3853> (5656)

you
<5213>_;

That
<2443>

ye may walk
<4043> (5725)

honestly
<2156>

toward
<4314>

them that are without
<1854>_,

and
<2532>

[that] ye may have
<2192> (5725)

lack
<5532>

of nothing
<3367>_.

{of...: or, of no man}

But
<1161>

I would
<2309> (0)

not
<3756>

have
<2309> (5719)

you
<5209>

to be ignorant
<50> (5721)_,

brethren
<80>_,

concerning
<4012>

them which are asleep
<2837> (5772)_,

that
<3363> (0)

ye sorrow
<3076> (5747)

not
<3363>_,

even
<2532>

as
<2531>

others
<3062>

which
<3588>

have
<2192> (5723)

no
<3361>

hope
<1680>_.

For
<1063>

if
<1487>

we believe
<4100> (5719)

that
<3754>

Jesus
<2424>

died
<599> (5627)

and
<2532>

rose again
<450> (5627)_,

even so
<3779>

them also
<2532>

which sleep
<2837> (5685)

in
<1223>

Jesus
<2424>

will
<71> (0)

God
<2316>

bring
<71> (5692)

with
<4862>

him
<846>_.

For
<1063>

this
<5124>

we say
<3004> (5719)

unto you
<5213>

by
<1722>

the word
<3056>

of the Lord
<2962>_,

that
<3754>

we
<2249>

which
<3588>

are alive
<2198> (5723)

[and] remain
<4035> (5742)

unto
<1519>

the coming
<3952>

of the Lord
<2962>

shall
<5348> (0)

not
<3364>

prevent
<5348> (5661)

them which
<3588>

are asleep
<2837> (5685)_.

{prevent: or, come before, or, anticipate, or, precede}

For
<3754>

the Lord
<2962>

himself
<846>

shall descend
<2597> (5695)

from
<575>

heaven
<3772>

with
<1722>

a shout
<2752>_,

with
<1722>

the voice
<5456>

of the archangel
<743>_,

and
<2532>

with
<1722>

the trump
<4536>

of God
<2316>_:

and
<2532>

the dead
<3498>

in
<1722>

Christ
<5547>

shall rise
<450> (5698)

first
<4412>_:

Then
<1899>

we
<2249>

which
<3588>

are alive
<2198> (5723)

[and] remain
<4035> (5742)

shall be caught up
<726> (5691)

together
<260>

with
<4862>

them
<846>

in
<1722>

the clouds
<3507>_,

to
<1519>

meet
<529>

the Lord
<2962>

in
<1519>

the air
<109>_:

and
<2532>

so
<3779>

shall we
<2071> (0)

ever
<3842>

be
<2071> (5704)

with
<4862>

the Lord
<2962>_.

Wherefore
<5620>

comfort
<3870> (5720)

one another
<240>

with
<1722>

these
<5125>

words
<3056>_.

{comfort: or, exhort}

But
<1161>

of
<4012>

the times
<5550>

and
<2532>

the seasons
<2540>_,

brethren
<80>_,

ye have
<2192> (5719)

no
<3756>

need
<5532>

that I write
<1125> (5745)

unto you
<5213>_.

For
<1063>

yourselves
<846>

know
<1492> (5758)

perfectly
<199>

that
<3754>

the day
<2250>

of the Lord
<2962>

so
<3779>

cometh
<2064> (5736)

as
<5613>

a thief
<2812>

in
<1722>

the night
<3571>_.

For
<1063>

when
<3752>

they shall say
<3004> (5725)_,

Peace
<1515>

and
<2532>

safety
<803>_;

then
<5119>

sudden
<160>

destruction
<3639>

cometh upon
<2186> (5731)

them
<846>_,

as
<5618>

travail
<5604>

upon
<1722>

a woman with child
<1064> <2192> (5723)_;

and
<2532>

they shall
<1628> (0)

not
<3364>

escape
<1628> (5632)_.

But
<1161>

ye
<5210>_,

brethren
<80>_,

are
<2075> (5748)

not
<3756>

in
<1722>

darkness
<4655>_,

that
<2443>

that day
<2250>

should overtake
<2638> (5632)

you
<5209>

as
<5613>

a thief
<2812>_.

Ye
<5210>

are
<2075> (5748)

all
<3956>

the children
<5207>

of light
<5457>_,

and
<2532>

the children
<5207>

of the day
<2250>_:

we are
<2070> (5748)

not
<3756>

of the night
<3571>_,

nor
<3761>

of darkness
<4655>_.

Therefore
<686> <3767>

let us
<2518> (0)

not
<3361>

sleep
<2518> (5725)_,

as
<5613> <2532>

[do] others
<3062>_;

but
<235>

let us watch
<1127> (5725)

and
<2532>

be sober
<3525> (5725)_.

For
<1063>

they that sleep
<2518> (5723)

sleep
<2518> (5719)

in the night
<3571>_;

and
<2532>

they that be drunken
<3182> (5746)

are drunken
<3184> (5719)

in the night
<3571>_.

But
<1161>

let
<3525> (0)

us
<2249>_,

who are
<5607> (5752)

of the day
<2250>_,

be sober
<3525> (5725)_,

putting on
<1746> (5671)

the breastplate
<2382>

of faith
<4102>

and
<2532>

love
<26>_;

and
<2532>

for an helmet
<4030>_,

the hope
<1680>

of salvation
<4991>_.

For
<3754>

God
<2316>

hath
<5087> (0)

not
<3756>

appointed
<5087> (5639)

us
<2248>

to
<1519>

wrath
<3709>_,

but
<235>

to
<1519>

obtain
<4047>

salvation
<4991>

by
<1223>

our
<2257>

Lord
<2962>

Jesus
<2424>

Christ
<5547>_,

Who
<3588>

died
<599> (5631)

for
<5228>

us
<2257>_,

that
<2443>_,

whether
<1535>

we wake
<1127> (5725)

or
<1535>

sleep
<2518> (5725)_,

we should live
<2198> (5661)

together
<260>

with
<4862>

him
<846>_.

Wherefore
<1352>

comfort
<3870> (5720)

yourselves together
<240>_,

and
<2532>

edify
<3618> (5720)

one
<1520>

another
<1520>_,

even
<2531>

as also
<2532>

ye do
<4160> (5719)_.

{comfort: or, exhort}

And
<1161>

we beseech
<2065> (5719)

you
<5209>_,

brethren
<80>_,

to know
<1492> (5760)

them which
<3588>

labour
<2872> (5723)

among
<1722>

you
<5213>_,

and
<2532>

are over
<4291> (5734)

you
<5216>

in
<1722>

the Lord
<2962>_,

and
<2532>

admonish
<3560> (5723)

you
<5209>_;

And
<2532>

to esteem
<2233> (5738)

them
<846>

very
<5228>

highly
<1537> <4053>

in
<1722>

love
<26>

for
<1223>

their
<846>

work's sake
<2041>_.

[And] be at peace
<1514> (5720)

among
<1722>

yourselves
<1438>_.

Now
<1161>

we exhort
<3870> (5719)

you
<5209>_,

brethren
<80>_,

warn
<3560> (5720)

them that are unruly
<813>_,

comfort
<3888> (5737)

the feebleminded
<3642>_,

support
<472> (5737)

the weak
<772>_,

be patient
<3114> (5720)

toward
<4314>

all
<3956>

[men]. {exhort: or, beseech} {unruly: or, disorderly}

See

that none

render
<591> (5632)

evil
<2556>

for

evil

Rejoice
