1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
1 Paul, Silvanus,(a)(A) and Timothy:(B)To the church of the Thessalonians(C) in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1 From: Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy. To: The church of the Thessalonians in union with God our Father and the Lord Jesus, the Messiah.
2 We are bound, to be giving thanks, unto God, continually, concerning you, brethren, even as it is, meet; because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all one to another aboundeth,
2 Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 May grace and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus, the Messiah, be yours!
3 So that, we ourselves, in you, are boasting, in the assemblies of God, over your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which ye are sustaining: -
3 We ought always (F)to give thanks to God for you, (G)brethren, as is only fitting, because your faith is greatly enlarged, and the (H)love of each one of you toward one another grows ever greater;
3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;
3 We must always thank God for you, brothers. This is right, since your faith is flourishing and the love(D) each one of you has for one another(E) is increasing.(F)
3 Brothers, at all times we are obligated to thank God for you. It is right to do this because your faith is growing all the time and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.
4 A proof of the righteous judgment of God, to the end ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, in behalf of which ye are also suffering: -
4 therefore, we ourselves (I)speak proudly of you among (J)the churches of God for your (a)perseverance and faith (K)in the midst of all your persecutions and afflictions which you endure.
4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
4 Therefore, we ourselves boast(G) about you among God’s churches—about your endurance and faith in all the persecutions and afflictions you endure.
4 As a result, we rejoice about you among God's churches about your endurance and faith through all the persecutions and afflictions you are experiencing.
5 If, at least, it is a, righteous thing with God, to recompense, affliction, unto them that afflict you,
5 This is a (L)plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be (M)considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which indeed you are suffering.
5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
5 It is a clear evidence of God’s righteous(H) judgment(I) that you will be counted worthy of God’s kingdom, for which you also are suffering,(J)
5 This is evidence of God's righteous judgment and is intended to make you worthy of God's kingdom, for which you are suffering.
6 And, unto you that are afflicted, release, with us, - by the revealing of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his messengers of power,
6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
6 since it is righteous for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you
6 Certainly it is right for God to pay back those who afflict you with affliction,
7 In a fiery flame; holding forth vengeance - against them that refuse to know God, and them who decline to hearken unto the glad-message of our Lord Jesus,
7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted (d)and to us as well (e)(O)when the Lord Jesus will be revealed (P)from heaven (Q)with (f)His mighty angels (R)in flaming fire,
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
7 and to reward with rest you who are afflicted, along with us. This will take place at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with His powerful angels,
7 and to give us who are afflicted relief when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels
8 Who, indeed, a penalty, shall pay - age-abiding destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might -
8 dealing out retribution to those who (S)do not know God and to those who (T)do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
8 taking vengeance with flaming fire(K) on those who don’t know God(L) and on those who don’t obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.(M)
8 in blazing fire. He will take revenge on those who do not know God and on those who refuse to obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.
9 Whensoever he shall come, to be made all-glorious in his saints, and to be marvelled at in all who believed, - because our witness unto you was believed, - in that day.
9 These will pay the penalty of (U)eternal destruction, (V)away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
9 These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction(N) from the Lord’s presence(O) and from His glorious strength(P)
9 Such people will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction by being separated from the Lord's presence and from his glorious power
10 Unto which end, we are also praying continually for you, that our God may count, you, worthy of your calling, and fulfil every good-pleasure of goodness and work of faith, with power, -
10 when He comes to be (W)glorified (g)in His (h)saints on that (X)day, and to be marveled at among all who have believed—for our (Y)testimony to you was believed.
10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
10 in that day when He comes(Q) to be glorified(R) by His saints(S) and to be admired by all those who have believed, because our testimony among you was believed.
10 when he comes to be glorified by his saints and to be regarded with wonder on that day by all who have believed including you, because you believed our testimony.
11 That the name of our Lord Jesus may be made all-glorious in you, and, ye, in him, according o the favour of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
11 To this end also we (Z)pray for you always, that our God will (i)(AA)count you worthy of your (AB)calling, and fulfill every desire for (AC)goodness and the (AD)work of faith with power,
11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
11 And in view of this, we always pray for you that our God will consider you worthy of His calling,(T) and will, by His power, fulfill every desire for goodness and the work of faith,(U)
11 With this in mind, we always pray for you, asking that our God might make you worthy of his calling and that through his power he might help you accomplish every good desire and faithful action.
