帖撒罗尼迦前书 5
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Simplified)
劝门徒警醒谨守
5 弟兄们，论到时候、日期，不用写信给你们， 2 因为你们自己明明晓得，主的日子来到好像夜间的贼一样。 3 人正说平安稳妥的时候，灾祸忽然临到他们，如同产难临到怀胎的妇人一样，他们绝不能逃脱。 4 弟兄们，你们却不在黑暗里，叫那日子临到你们像贼一样。 5 你们都是光明之子，都是白昼之子。我们不是属黑夜的，也不是属幽暗的。 6 所以，我们不要睡觉，像别人一样，总要警醒谨守。 7 因为睡了的人是在夜间睡，醉了的人是在夜间醉。 8 但我们既然属乎白昼，就应当谨守，把信和爱当做护心镜遮胸，把得救的盼望当做头盔戴上。 9 因为神不是预定我们受刑，乃是预定我们借着我们主耶稣基督得救。 10 他替我们死，叫我们无论醒着、睡着，都与他同活。 11 所以，你们该彼此劝慰，互相建立，正如你们素常所行的。
12 弟兄们，我们劝你们敬重那在你们中间劳苦的人，就是在主里面治理你们、劝诫你们的。 13 又因他们所做的工，用爱心格外尊重他们。你们也要彼此和睦。 14 我们又劝弟兄们，要警戒不守规矩的人，勉励灰心的人，扶助软弱的人，也要向众人忍耐。
毋以恶报恶
15 你们要谨慎，无论是谁都不可以恶报恶。或是彼此相待，或是待众人，常要追求良善。 16 要常常喜乐， 17 不住地祷告， 18 凡事谢恩，因为这是神在基督耶稣里向你们所定的旨意。 19 不要消灭圣灵的感动， 20 不要藐视先知的讲论。 21 但要凡事察验，善美的要持守， 22 各样的恶事要禁戒不做。
23 愿赐平安的神亲自使你们全然成圣！又愿你们的灵与魂与身子得蒙保守，在我们主耶稣基督降临的时候完全无可指摘！ 24 那召你们的本是信实的，他必成就这事。
25 请弟兄们为我们祷告。 26 与众弟兄亲嘴问安务要圣洁。 27 我指着主嘱咐你们，要把这信念给众弟兄听。
28 愿我主耶稣基督的恩常与你们同在！

Chinese New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
为主的来临做准备
5 兄弟们，关于时间和日期，我不需要写信告诉你们， 2 因为你们自己很清楚。主重返那天就像夜里的盗贼一样，出其不意。 3 当人们正说：一切都安然无恙时，灾难会突然降临在他们身上，就像分娩的痛苦降临在孕妇身上那样，使他们无法逃避。 4 但是，兄弟们，你们不要生活在黑暗（罪）之中，那么，那天就不会像盗贼一样令你们吃惊， 5 因为你们属于光明（善良），属于白昼，我们不属于黑夜或黑暗（邪恶）。 6 让我们不要像其他人一样沉睡，而要保持清醒和自律。 7 睡觉的人，都是在夜里睡觉；喝醉的人，也都是在夜里喝醉。 8 既然我们属于白昼，我们就应该自律，就应该让我们的信仰和爱做为护身甲，把拯救的希望做为我们的头盔。 9 因为上帝选择我们不是让我们承受他的愤怒，而是让我们通过我们的主耶稣基督获得拯救。 10 他为我们而死，因此，不论我们是生还是死，当耶稣来临时，我们都能和他生活在一起。 11 所以你们要互相勉励，给彼此以力量，正像你们现在所做的那样.
最后的指导和问候
12 兄弟们，我们请求你们，尊重你们中间那些勤奋工作、在主内指导和教导你们的人。 13 由于他们的工作，你们应该用最大的敬意与爱心对待他们。
你们彼此要和睦相处。 14 兄弟们，我们督促你们：警告游手好闲的人，安慰胆怯的人，帮助弱者，并以耐心对待所有的人。 15 当心不要以恶报恶，而要努力对彼此和所有的人行善。
16 要常怀喜乐， 17 不断地祈祷， 18 在任何环境下都要感谢上帝。
19 不要让圣灵之火熄灭， 20 不要轻视先知的信息。
23 愿上帝，和平之源，使你们完全彻底地献身于他。愿你们的灵、生命与身体，在主耶稣基督来临时无可指责。 24 召唤你们的上帝是可信的，他会为你们成全此事的。
25 兄弟们，也请为我们祈祷。 26 用圣吻问候所有的兄弟。 27 我要你们在主面前发誓，要把这封信读给所有的兄弟听。 28 愿我们的主耶稣基督的恩典与你们同在。

Holman Christian Standard Bible
The Day of the Lord
5 About the times and the seasons:(A) Brothers, you do not need anything to be written to you. 2 For you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord(B) will come just like a thief(C) in the night. 3 When they say, “Peace and security,” then sudden destruction(D) comes on them, like labor pains come on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you, brothers, are not in the dark, for this day to overtake you like a thief.(E) 5 For you are all sons of light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or the darkness.(F) 6 So then, we must not sleep, like the rest, but we must stay awake and be serious. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night. 8 But since we belong to the day, we must be serious(G) and put the armor(H) of faith and love on our chests, and put on a helmet(I) of the hope of salvation. 9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord(J) Jesus Christ,(K) 10 who died for us,(L) so that whether we are awake or asleep,(M) we will live together with Him.(N) 11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you are already doing.
Exhortations and Blessings
12 Now we ask you, brothers, to give recognition(O) to those who labor among you and lead you in the Lord and admonish you, 13 and to regard them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace(P) among yourselves. 14 And we exhort you, brothers:(Q) warn those who are irresponsible,[a] comfort the discouraged, help the weak, be patient(R) with everyone. 15 See to it that no one repays evil for evil(S) to anyone,(T) but always pursue what is good for one another and for all.(U)
16 Rejoice(V) always!
17 Pray constantly.
18 Give thanks in everything,
for this is God’s will(W) for you in Christ Jesus.
19 Don’t stifle the Spirit.
20 Don’t despise prophecies,
21 but test all things.(X)
Hold on to what is good.
22 Stay away(Y) from every kind of evil.
23 Now may the God of peace(Z) Himself sanctify you completely. And may your spirit,(AA) soul, and body be kept sound and blameless for the coming(AB) of our Lord(AC) Jesus Christ.(AD) 24 He who calls(AE) you(AF) is faithful, who also will do it. 25 Brothers, pray for us also. 26 Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss. 27 I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brothers.(AG) 28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

1 Thessalonians 5
Young's Literal Translation
5 And concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need of my writing to you,
2 for yourselves have known thoroughly that the day of the Lord as a thief in the night doth so come,
3 for when they may say, Peace and surety, then sudden destruction doth stand by them, as the travail [doth] her who is with child, and they shall not escape;
4 and ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day may catch you as a thief;
5 all ye are sons of light, and sons of day; we are not of night, nor of darkness,
6 so, then, we may not sleep as also the others, but watch and be sober,
7 for those sleeping, by night do sleep, and those making themselves drunk, by night are drunken,
8 and we, being of the day -- let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet -- a hope of salvation,
9 because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 who did die for us, that whether we wake -- whether we sleep -- together with him we may live;
11 wherefore, comfort ye one another, and build ye up, one the one, as also ye do.
12 And we ask you, brethren, to know those labouring among you, and leading you in the Lord, and admonishing you,
13 and to esteem them very abundantly in love, because of their work; be at peace among yourselves;
14 and we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, comfort the feeble-minded, support the infirm, be patient unto all;
15 see no one evil for evil may render to any one, but always that which is good pursue ye, both to one another and to all;
16 always rejoice ye;
17 continually pray ye;
18 in every thing give thanks, for this [is] the will of God in Christ Jesus in regard to you.
19 The Spirit quench not;
20 prophesyings despise not;
21 all things prove; that which is good hold fast;
22 from all appearance of evil abstain ye;
23 and the God of the peace Himself sanctify you wholly, and may your whole spirit, and soul, and body, be preserved unblameably in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ;
24 stedfast is He who is calling you, who also will do [it].
25 Brethren, pray for us;
26 salute all the brethren in an holy kiss;
27 I charge you [by] the Lord, that the letter be read to all the holy brethren;
28 the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you! Amen.
