1 Thessalonians 5

1 He proceedeth in the former description of Christ's coming to judgment, 16 and giveth divers precepts, 23 and so concludeth the epistle.

 5:1 ¶ But 1161 of 4012 the x3588 times 5550 and 2532 the x3588 seasons, 2540 brethren, 80 ye have 2192 z5719 no 3756 need 5532 that I write 1125 z5745 unto you. 5213

 5:2 For 1063 yourselves 846 know 1492 z5758 perfectly 199 that 3754 the x3588 day 2250 of the Lord 2962 so 3779 cometh 2064 z5736 as 5613 a thief 2812 in 1722 the night. 3571

 5:3 For 1063 when 3752 they shall say, 3004 z5725 Peace 1515 and 2532 safety; 803 then 5119 sudden 160 destruction 3639 cometh upon 2186 z5731 them, 846 as 5618 travail 5604 upon y1722 a woman with child; 1064 2192 z5723 x1722 and 2532 they shall y1628 z0 not 3364 escape. 1628 z5632

 5:4 But 1161 ye, 5210 brethren, 80 are 2075 z5748 not 3756 in 1722 darkness, 4655 that 2443 that day 2250 should overtake 2638 z5632 you 5209 as 5613 a thief. 2812

 5:5 Ye 5210 are 2075 z5748 all 3956 the children 5207 of light, 5457 and 2532 the children 5207 of the day: 2250 we are 2070 z5748 not 3756 of the night, 3571 nor 3761 of darkness. 4655

 5:6 Therefore 686 3767 let us y2518 z0 not 3361 sleep, 2518 z5725 as 5613 y2532 [do] x2532 others; 3062 but 235 let us watch 1127 z5725 and 2532 be sober. 3525 z5725

 5:7 For 1063 they that sleep 2518 z5723 sleep 2518 z5719 in the night; 3571 and 2532 they that be drunken 3182 z5746 are drunken 3184 z5719 in the night. 3571

 5:8 But 1161 let y3525 z0 us, 2249 who are 5607 z5752 of the day, 2250 be sober, 3525 z5725 putting on 1746 z5671 the breastplate 2382 of faith 4102 and 2532 love; 26 and 2532 for a helmet, 4030 the hope 1680 of salvation. 4991

 5:9 For 3754 God 2316 hath y5087 z0 not 3756 appointed 5087 z5639 us 2248 to 1519 wrath, 3709 but 235 to y1519 obtain 4047 x1519 salvation 4991 by 1223 our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ, 5547

 5:10 Who y3588 died 599 z5631 for 5228 us, 2257 that, 2443 whether 1535 we wake 1127 z5725 or 1535 sleep, 2518 z5725 we should live 2198 z5661 together 260 with 4862 him. 846

 5:11 Wherefore 1352 comfort 3870 z5720 yourselves together, 240 and 2532 edify 3618 z5720 one y1520 another, 1520 even y2531 as x2531 also 2532 ye do. 4160 z5719

 5:12 And 1161 we beseech 2065 z5719 you, 5209 brethren, 80 to know 1492 z5760 them which y3588 labor 2872 z5723 among 1722 you, 5213 and 2532 are over 4291 z5734 you 5216 in 1722 the Lord, 2962 and 2532 admonish 3560 z5723 you; 5209

 5:13 And 2532 to esteem 2233 z5738 them 846 very y5228 highly 1537 4053 x5228 in 1722 love 26 for y1223 their y846 work's sake. 2041 x1223 x846 [And] be at peace 1514 z5720 among 1722 yourselves. 1438

 5:14 Now 1161 we exhort 3870 z5719 you, 5209 brethren, 80 warn 3560 z5720 them that are unruly, 813 comfort 3888 z5737 the x3588 feebleminded, 3642 support 472 z5737 the x3588 weak, 772 be patient 3114 z5720 toward 4314 all 3956 [men].

 5:15 See 3708 z5720 that none 3361 5100 render 591 z5632 evil 2556 for 473 evil 2556 unto any 5100 [man]; but 235 ever 3842 follow 1377 z5720 that which y3588 is good, 18 both 2532 among 1519 yourselves, 240 and 2532 to 1519 all 3956 [men].

 5:16 Rejoice 5463 z5720 evermore. 3842

 5:17 Pray 4336 z5737 without ceasing. 89

 5:18 In 1722 every thing 3956 give thanks: 2168 z5720 for 1063 this 5124 is the will 2307 of God 2316 in 1722 Christ 5547 Jesus 2424 concerning 1519 you. 5209

 5:19 Quench 4570 z5720 not 3361 the x3588 Spirit. 4151

 5:20 Despise 1848 z5720 not 3361 prophesyings. 4394

 5:21 Prove 1381 z5720 all things; 3956 hold fast 2722 z5720 that which y3588 is good. 2570

 5:22 Abstain 567 z5732 from 575 all 3956 appearance 1491 of evil. 4190

 5:23 And 1161 the x3588 very 846 God 2316 of peace 1515 sanctify 37 z5659 you 5209 wholly; 3651 and 2532 [I pray God] your 5216 whole 3648 spirit 4151 and 2532 soul 5590 and 2532 body 4983 be preserved 5083 z5684 blameless 274 unto 1722 the x3588 coming 3952 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ. 5547

 5:24 Faithful 4103 [is] he that calleth 2564 z5723 you, 5209 who 3739 also 2532 will do 4160 z5692 [it].

 5:25 Brethren, 80 pray 4336 z5737 for 4012 us. 2257

 5:26 Greet 782 z5663 all 3956 the x3588 brethren 80 with 1722 a holy 40 kiss. 5370

 5:27 I charge 3726 z5719 you 5209 by the x3588 Lord 2962 that this epistle 1992 be read 314 z5683 unto all 3956 the x3588 holy 40 brethren. 80

 5:28 The x3588 grace 5485 of our 2257 Lord 2962 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 [be] with 3326 you. 5216 Amen. 281
