PAUL and Silvanus [Silas] and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

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

and to you who are afflicted rest with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels

in a flame of fire, executing judgment on all that know not God and obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus;

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

And we beseech you, brothers, in respect to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our being brought together to him,

to which he called you by our gospel, to obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

and our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us eternal consolation and a good hope by grace,

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

we charge and exhort such, by our Lord Jesus Christ, to work quietly, and eat their own bread.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
