CHAP. IV.
1 He exhorteth them to go forward in all manner
of godliness, 6 to live holily and justly,
9 to love one another, 11 and quietly to follow
their own business; 13 and last of all,
to sorrow moderately for the dead; 15 and
to this last exhortation is annexed a brief
description of the resurrection, and second
coming of Christ to judgment.
1 Furthermore then we note beseech
you, brethren, and note exhort you by
the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received
from us how ye ought to walk and to
please God, so ye would abound more
and more.
2 For ye know what commandments
we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3 For this is the will of God, even your
sanctification, that ye should abstain
from lewdness.
4 That every one of you should know
how to possess his vessel in sanctification
and honor;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence,
even as the Gentiles who know not God:
6 That no man go beyond and note defraud
his brother note in any matter: because
the Lord is the avenger of all such,
as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For God hath not called us to uncleanness,
but to holiness.
8 He therefore that note despiseth, despiseth
not man, but God, who hath also
given to us his holy Spirit.
9 But concerning brotherly love ye
need not that I write to you: for ye yourselves
are note taught by God to love one
another.
10 And indeed ye do it towards all the
brethren who are in all Macedonia: but
we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase
more and more;
11 And that ye study to be quiet, and
to do your own business, and to work
with your own hands, as we commanded
you;
12 That ye may walk honestly towards
them that are without, and that ye may
have need of nothing.
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant,
brethren, concerning them who
are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as
others who have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died
and rose again, even so note them also who
sleep in Jesus will God bring with
him.
15 For this we say to you by the word
of the Lord, that we who are alive and
remain to the coming of the Lord shall
not note precede them who are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself will descend
from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of an arch-angel, and with note the trumpet
of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise
first:
17 Then we who are alive and remain
shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore, comfort one another
with these words.
