帖撒羅尼迦前書

第5章

1 弟兄們,論到時候、日期,不用[I]寫信給你們;

2 因為你們自己明明曉得,主的日子來到,好像夜間的賊一樣。

3 人正說「平安穩妥」的時候,災禍忽然臨到他們,如同陣痛[travail]臨到懷胎的婦人一樣;他們絕不能逃脫。

4 弟兄們,你們卻不在黑暗裏,叫那日子臨到你們像賊一樣。

5 你們都是光明之子,都是白晝之子。我們不是屬黑夜的,也不是屬幽暗的。

6 所以我們不要睡覺像別人一樣,總要警醒謹守。

7 因為睡了的人是在夜間睡,醉了的人是在夜間醉。

8 但我們既然屬乎白晝,就應當謹守,把信和愛當作護胸甲[breastplate]遮胸;把得救的盼望當作頭盔戴上。

9 因為神不是預定我們受忿怒[wrath],乃是預定我們藉著我們主耶穌基督得救。

10 他替我們死,叫我們無論醒著、睡著,都與他同活。

11 所以,你們該彼此勸慰,互相造就[edify],正如你們素常所行的。

12 弟兄們,我們勸你們敬重那在你們中間勞苦的人,就是在主裏面治理你們、勸戒你們的。

13 又因他們所作的工,用愛心格外尊重他們。你們也要彼此和睦。

14 我們又勸弟兄們,要警戒不守規矩的人,安慰意志薄弱[comfort the feebleminded]的人,扶助軟弱的人,也要向眾人忍耐。

15 總要謹慎[See],無論是誰都不可以惡報惡;或是彼此相待,或是待眾人,常要追求良善。

16 要常常喜樂。

17 不住的禱告。

18 凡事謝恩;因為這是神在基督耶穌裏[concerning]你們所定的旨意。

19 不要將靈熄滅[Quench not the Spirit]

20 不要藐視先知的講論。

21 凡事察驗[Prove all things],善美的要持守。

22 各樣顯為惡的事[appearance of evil]要禁戒不作。

23 [very]賜平安的神使你們全然成聖[sanctify you wholly]我又求神,願[and I pray God]你們的靈與魂與身體得蒙保守,在我們[our]主耶穌基督降臨的時候,完全無可指摘。

24 那召你們的本是信實的,他必成就這事。

25 請弟兄們為我們禱告。

26 與眾弟兄務要以聖潔的親嘴問安[Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss]。。

27 我指著主囑咐你們,要把這信念給眾聖潔[holy]弟兄聽。

28 我們[our]主耶穌基督的恩常與你們同在。阿們[Amen]

1 Thessalonians

Chapter 5

1 But of the times5550 and the seasons,2540 brothers,80 you have2192 no3756 need5532 that I write1125 to you.

2 For yourselves846 know1492 perfectly199 that the day2250 of the Lord2962 so3779 comes2064 as a thief2812 in the night.3571

3 For when3752 they shall say,3004 Peace1515 and safety;803 then5119 sudden160 destruction3639 comes2186 on them, as travail5604 on a woman with child;1722 106 2192 and they shall not 1628escape.

4 But you, brothers,80 are not in darkness,4655 that that day2250 should overtake2638 you as a thief.2812

5 You are all3956 the children5207 of light,5457 and the children5207 of the day:2250 we are not of the night,3571 nor3761 of darkness.4655

6 Therefore686 3767 let us not sleep,2518 as do others;3062 but let us watch1127 and be sober.3525

7 For they that sleep2518 sleep2518 in the night;3571 and they that be drunken3184 are drunken3184 in the night.3571

8 But let us, who are of the day,2250 be sober,3525 putting1746 on1746 the breastplate2382 of faith4102 and love;26 and for an helmet,4030 the hope1680 of salvation.4991

9 For God2316 has not appointed5087 us to wrath,3709 but to obtain4047 salvation4991 by our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ,5547

10 Who3588 died599 for us, that, whether1535 we wake1127 or1535 sleep,2518 we should live2198 together260 with him.

11 Why1352 comfort3870 yourselves240 together,240 and edify3618 one1520 another,1520 even2531 as also2532 you do.4160

12 And we beseech2065 you, brothers,80 to know1492 them which3588 labor2872 among1722 you, and are over4291 you in the Lord,2962 and admonish3560 you;

13 And to esteem2233 them very5228 highly1537 4053 in love26 for their work's2041 sake. And be at1722 peace1518 among1722 yourselves.1438

14 Now1161 we exhort3870 you, brothers,80 warn3560 them that are unruly,813 comfort3888 the feebleminded,3642 support472 the weak,772 be patient3114 toward4314 all3956 men.

15 See3708 that none3361 5100 render591 evil2556 for evil2556 to any5100 man; but ever3842 follow1377 that which3588 is good,18 both2532 among1519 yourselves,1438 and to all3956 men.

16 Rejoice5463 ever more.3842

17 Pray4336 without89 ceasing.89

18 In every3956 thing give thanks:2168 for this5124 is the will2307 of God2316 in Christ5547 Jesus2424 concerning1519 you.

19 Quench4570 not the Spirit.4151

20 Despise1848 not prophesyings.4394

21 Prove1381 all3956 things; hold2722 fast2722 that which3588 is good.2570

22 Abstain567 from all3956 appearance1491 of evil.4190

23 And the very846 God2316 of peace1515 sanctify37 you wholly;3651 and I pray God your3588 whole3648 spirit4151 and soul5590 and body4983 be preserved5083 blameless274 to the coming3952 of our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ.5547

24 Faithful4103 is he that calls2564 you, who3739 also2532 will do4160 it.

25 Brothers,80 pray4336 for us.

26 Greet782 all3956 the brothers80 with an holy40 kiss.5370

27 I charge3726 you by the Lord2962 that this3588 letter1992 be read314 to all3956 the holy40 brothers.80

28 The grace5485 of our Lord2962 Jesus2424 Christ5547 be with you. Amen.281 The first epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.
