Paul and Silvanus and Timothy - unto the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ, - favour unto you, and peace!

Unceasingly, remembering - your work of faith and labour of love and endurance of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father:

Nor, of men, seeking glory - either from you, or from others, though we could have assumed, dignity, as Apostles of Christ;

For, ye, became, imitators, brethren, of the assemblies of God which are in Judaea, in Christ Jesus, in that, the same things, ye, also suffered by your own fellow-countrymen, even as, they, also by the Jews:

And sent Timothy - our brother, and God's minister in the glad-message of the Christ - that he might confirm and console you over your faith,

Because, the Lord himself, with a word of command, with a chief-messenger's voice, and with a trumpet of God, shall descend from heaven, - and, the dead in Christ, shall rise, first,

Because God did not appoint us unto anger, but unto acquiring salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ: -

In everything, give thanks, - for, this, is a thing willed of God, in Christ Jesus, towards you:

But, the God of peace himself, hallow you completely, and, entire, might your spirit, and soul, and body, - so as to be unblameable in the Presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, - be preserved!

The favour of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with you.
