1 Thessalonians 5:10-22

CLV(i) 10 Who died for our sakes, that, whether we may be watching or drowsing, we should be living at the same time together with Him." 11 Wherefore, console one another and edify one the other, according as you are doing also." 12 Now we are asking you, brethren, to perceive those who are toiling among you and presiding over you in the Lord and admonishing you, 13 and to deem them exceedingly distinguished in love, because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves." 14 Now we are entreating you, brethren; admonish the disorderly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the infirm, be patient toward all." 15 See that no one may be rendering evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue that which is good for one another as well as for all." 16 Be rejoicing always. 17 Be praying unintermittingly. 18 In everything be giving thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. " 19 Quench not the spirit. 20 Scorn not prophecies. 21 Yet be testing all, retaining the ideal." 22 From everything wicked to the perception, abstain."
