Ch. I.
1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church
of the Thessalonians in God our Father, and in
the Lord Jesus Christ;
2 grace be to you and peace
from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We ought always to give thanks to God on your
account, my brethren, as it is fit; because your faith
increaseth greatly, and the love of every one of you note
towards each other aboundeth:
4 so that we ourselves
boast of you among the churches of God, for your patience
and faith under all your persecutions and afflictions
which ye endure.
5 Which are a demonstration of the just
judgement of God, that ye may be counted worthy of
the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
6 seeing
it is a righteous thing with God to render affliction to
those that afflict you;
7 and to you, who are note in trouble,
rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from
heaven,
8 with note his mighty angels, in flaming fire, taking
vengeance on those who know not God, and who obey
not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
9 who shall be
punished with everlasting destruction, note by the presence
of the Lord and by his glorious power:
10 in that day,
when He shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to
be admired in all them that believe; because our testimony
among you was believed.
11 Wherefore note we pray
always for you, that our God would note count you worthy
of this calling, and fulfil all the note good pleasure of his
goodness, and the work of faith with power:
12 that the
name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you,
and ye in Him, according to the grace of our God, and
of the Lord Jesus Christ.
