1 G3588 The G3062 rest G3767 then, G80 brethren, G2065 we ask G1473 you G2532 and G3870 appeal G1722 in G2962 the Lord G* Jesus, G2531 as G3880 you received G3844 from G1473 us G3588 the thing G4459 how G1163 it was necessary for you G1473 G4043 to walk G2532 and G700 to please G2316 God, G2443 that G4052 you should abound G3123 more.

2 G1492 For you know G1063 G5100 what G3852 exhortations G1325 we gave G1473 to you G1223 through G3588 the G2962 Lord G* Jesus.

3 G3778 For this G1063 G1510.2.3 is G2307 the will G3588 G2316 of God -- G3588 G38 your sanctification, G1473 G566 for you to be at a distance G1473 G575 from G3588 G4202 harlotry.

4 G1492 [³to know G1538 ¹ For each G1473 ²of you] G3588 G1438 his own G4632 vessel, G2932 to possess G1722 in G38 sanctification G2532 and G5092 honor,

5 G3361 not G1722 in G3806 passion G1939 of desire, G2509 as G2532 even G3588 the G1484 nations, G3588 the ones G3361 not G1492 knowing G3588 G2316 God;

6 G3588 G3361 to not G5233 pass over G2532 and G4122 to overabound G1722 in G3588 the G4229 matter G3588 G80 of his brother; G1473 G1360 for G1558 the one punishing G3588 is the G2962 Lord G4012 concerning G3956 all G3778 these things, G2531 as G2532 also G4277 we foretold G1473 to you, G2532 and G1263 we testified.

7 G3756 [⁵not G1063 ¹For G2564 ³called G1473 ⁴us G3588 G2316 ²God] G1909 unto G167 uncleanness, G235 but G1722 in G38 sanctification.

8 G5105 Accordingly G3588 the one G114 disregarding, G3756 [²not G444 ³man G114 ¹disregards], G235 but G3588 G2316 God, G3588 the one G2532 also G1325 having given G3588 G4151 [³spirit G1473 ¹his G3588 G39 ²holy] G1519 to G1473 us.

9 G4012 And concerning G1161 G3588 G5360 brotherly affection G3756 [²no G5532 ³need G2192 ¹you have] G1125 for me to write G1473 to you; G1473 [³yourselves G1063 ¹for G1473 ²you] G2312 are taught by God G1510.2.5 G1519 G3588 G25 to love G240 one another.

10 G2532 For also G1063 G4160 you do G1473 this G1519 towards G3956 all G3588 the G80 brethren, G3588 the ones G1722 in G3650 all G3588 G* Macedonia! G3870 But we appeal to G1161 G1473 you, G80 brethren, G4052 to abound G3123 more,

11 G2532 and G5389 to strive earnestly G2270 to be quiet, G2532 and G4238 to do G3588 your own things, G2398 G2532 and G2038 to work G3588 with G2398 [²own G5495 ³hands G1473 ¹your], G2531 as G1473 we exhorted to you; G3853

12 G2443 that G4043 you should walk G2156 decently G4314 towards G3588 the ones G1854 outside, G2532 and G3367 no one G5532 [²need G2192 ¹should have].

13 G3756 [²I do not G2309 ³want G1161 ¹But] G1473 you G50 to be ignorant, G80 brethren, G4012 concerning G3588 the ones G2837 having gone to sleep, G2443 that G3361 you do not G3076 fret G2531 as G2532 even G3588 the G3062 rest, G3588 the ones G3361 not G2192 having G1680 hope.

14 G1487 For if G1063 G4100 we believe G3754 that G* Jesus G599 died G2532 and G450 rose up, G3779 so G2532 also G3588 G2316 God G3588 [⁴the ones G2837 ⁵having gone to sleep G1223 ⁶through G3588 G* ⁷Jesus G71 ¹will bring G4862 ²with G1473 ³him].

15 G3778 For this G1063 G1473 to you G3004 we say G1722 by G3056 word G2962 of the Lord, G3754 that G1473 we, G3588 the ones G2198 living, G3588 the ones G4035 remaining G1519 at G3588 the G3952 arrival G3588 of the G2962 Lord, G3766.2 in no way G5348 should anticipate G3588 the ones G2837 having gone to sleep.

16 G3754 For G1473 [³himself G3588 ¹the G2962 ²Lord] G1722 in G2752 a word of command G1722 by G5456 the voice G743 of an archangel, G2532 and G1722 with G4536 a trumpet G2316 of God, G2597 shall descend G575 from G3772 heaven, G2532 and G3588 the G3498 dead G1722 in G5547 Christ G450 shall rise up G4412 first.

17 G1899 Thereupon G1473 we G3588 the G2198 living, G3588 the ones G4035 remaining, G260 together G4862 with G1473 them G726 shall be seized G1722 in G3507 clouds, G1519 for G529 meeting G3588 the G2962 Lord G1519 in G109 the air, G2532 and G3779 thus G3842 at all times G4862 with G2962 the Lord G1510.8.4 we shall be.

18 G5620 So then G3870 comfort G240 one another G1722 by G3588 G3056 these words! G3778
