Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the congregation of Thessalonians in God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ:

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ.

and relief with us, to you who are restricted, at the revealing of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his agents of power

in a fire of flame rendering vengeance to those who have not known God, and to those not obeying the good-news of our Lord Jesus Christ.

So that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.

Now we ask you, brothers, on behalf of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him,

for which he called you, through our good-news, for an acquired possession of glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

And may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father who loved us and gave eternal encouragement and good hope through grace,

Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, for you to withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition, which they received from us.

Now to such men we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that, working with quietness, they should eat their own bread.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with all of you. Truly.
