要主的道快快行开

弟兄们,我还有话说,请你们为我们祷告,好叫主的道理快快行开,得着荣耀,正如在你们中间一样; 也叫我们脱离无理之恶人的手,因为人不都是有信心。 但主是信实的,要坚固你们,保护你们脱离那恶者[a] 我们靠主深信,你们现在是遵行我们所吩咐的,后来也必要遵行。 愿主引导你们的心,叫你们爱神,并学基督的忍耐!

不做工的不可吃饭

弟兄们,我们奉主耶稣基督的名吩咐你们,凡有弟兄不按规矩而行,不遵守从我们所受的教训,就当远离他。 你们自己原知道应当怎样效法我们;因为我们在你们中间,未尝不按规矩而行, 也未尝白吃人的饭,倒是辛苦劳碌,昼夜做工,免得叫你们一人受累。 这并不是因我们没有权柄,乃是要给你们做榜样,叫你们效法我们。 10 我们在你们那里的时候,曾吩咐你们说:若有人不肯做工,就不可吃饭。 11 因我们听说,在你们中间有人不按规矩而行,什么工都不做,反倒专管闲事。 12 我们靠主耶稣基督吩咐、劝诫这样的人,要安静做工,吃自己的饭。

行善不可丧志

13 弟兄们,你们行善不可丧志。 14 若有人不听从我们这信上的话,要记下他,不和他交往,叫他自觉羞愧。 15 但不要以他为仇人,要劝他如弟兄。

16 愿赐平安的主随时随事亲自给你们平安!愿主常与你们众人同在!

17 保罗亲笔问你们安——凡我的信都以此为记,我的笔迹就是这样。 18 愿我们主耶稣基督的恩常与你们众人同在!

Request for Prayer

As for other matters, brothers and sisters,(A) pray for us(B) that the message of the Lord(C) may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.(D) And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people,(E) for not everyone has faith. But the Lord is faithful,(F) and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.(G) We have confidence(H) in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command. May the Lord direct your hearts(I) into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

Warning Against Idleness

In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,(J) we command you, brothers and sisters, to keep away from(K) every believer who is idle and disruptive(L) and does not live according to the teaching[a] you received from us.(M) For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example.(N) We were not idle when we were with you, nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked(O) night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help,(P) but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate.(Q) 10 For even when we were with you,(R) we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work(S) shall not eat.”

11 We hear that some among you are idle and disruptive. They are not busy; they are busybodies.(T) 12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ(U) to settle down and earn the food they eat.(V) 13 And as for you, brothers and sisters, never tire of doing what is good.(W)

14 Take special note of anyone who does not obey our instruction in this letter. Do not associate with them,(X) in order that they may feel ashamed.(Y) 15 Yet do not regard them as an enemy, but warn them as you would a fellow believer.(Z)

Final Greetings

16 Now may the Lord of peace(AA) himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.(AB)

17 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand,(AC) which is the distinguishing mark in all my letters. This is how I write.

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.(AD)

  1. 2 Thessalonians 3:6 Or tradition

Fidelidad de Dios

Por lo demás, hermanos, rueguen por nosotros para que la palabra del Señor prosiga el avance glorioso que ha conocido en Tesalónica. Rueguen también para que el Señor nos libre de la gente insolente y malvada, porque no todos aceptan la fe. ¡Pero el Señor es fiel! Él los hará fuertes y los librará del maligno. Gracias a él podemos confiar en que ustedes cumplen y cumplirán lo que les hemos inculcado. Que el Señor, pues, encamine sus corazones para que amen a Dios y esperen a Cristo sin desfallecer.

La obligación del trabajo

Finalmente, hermanos, esto es lo que les mandamos en nombre de Jesucristo, el Señor: que se mantengan apartados de todo hermano que viva ociosamente y no siga la tradición que ha recibido de nosotros. Conocen ustedes perfectamente cómo pueden imitarnos, pues no vivimos ociosamente entre ustedes ni comimos de balde el pan de nadie. Al contrario, trabajamos día y noche hasta casi extenuarnos, con el fin de no ser gravosos a ninguno de ustedes. ¡Y teníamos derecho a ello! Pero quisimos ofrecerles un ejemplo que imitar.

10 Estando entre ustedes les inculcamos ya esta norma: el que no quiera trabajar, que tampoco coma. 11 Y es que nos hemos enterado de que algunos viven ociosamente entre ustedes: en lugar de trabajar, se entrometen en todo. 12 De parte de Jesucristo, el Señor, los instamos y exhortamos a que trabajen y coman su propio pan sin perturbar a nadie. 13 En cuanto a ustedes, hermanos, no se canssen de hacer el bien. 14 Y si alguien no hace caso a lo que les decimos en esta carta, tomen nota de él y háganle el vacío, a ver si se avergüenza. 15 Pero no lo traten como enemigo; corríjanlo, más bien, como a un hermano.

Conclusión (3,16-17)

Bendición y saludo final

16 Que el Señor de la paz les conceda la paz siempre y en todas sus formas. El Señor esté con todos ustedes. 17 El saludo es de mi puño y letra. Así firmo yo, Pablo, en todas mis cartas; esta es mi letra. 18 La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo esté con todos ustedes.

Pray for Us

Finally, brethren, (A)pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, and (B)that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; (C)for not all have faith.

But (D)the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and (E)guard you from the evil one. And (F)we have confidence in the Lord concerning you, both that you do and will do the things we command you.

Now may (G)the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.

Warning Against Idleness

But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, (H)that you withdraw (I)from every brother who walks (J)disorderly and not according to the tradition which [a]he received from us. For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; nor did we eat anyone’s bread [b]free of charge, but worked with (K)labor and toil night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, not because we do not have (L)authority, but to make ourselves an example of how you should follow us.

10 For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. 11 For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are (M)busybodies. 12 Now those who are such we command and [c]exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ (N)that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.

13 But as for you, brethren, (O)do not grow weary in doing good. 14 And if anyone does not obey our word in this [d]epistle, note that person and (P)do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed. 15 (Q)Yet do not count him as an enemy, (R)but [e]admonish him as a brother.

Benediction

16 Now may (S)the Lord of peace Himself give you peace always in every way. The Lord be with you all.

17 (T)The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is a sign in every [f]epistle; so I write.

18 (U)The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
