帖撒羅尼迦後書 1
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)
1 保羅、西拉、提摩太，寫信給帖撒羅尼迦在神我們的父與主耶穌基督裡的教會。 2 願恩惠、平安從父神和主耶穌基督歸於你們！
保羅為門徒感謝神
3 弟兄們，我們該為你們常常感謝神，這本是合宜的，因你們的信心格外增長，並且你們眾人彼此相愛的心也都充足。 4 甚至我們在神的各教會裡為你們誇口，都因你們在所受的一切逼迫患難中，仍舊存忍耐和信心。 5 這正是神公義判斷的明證，叫你們可算配得神的國，你們就是為這國受苦。 6 神既是公義的，就必將患難報應那加患難給你們的人， 7 也必使你們這受患難的人與我們同得平安。那時，主耶穌同他有能力的天使從天上在火焰中顯現， 8 要報應那不認識神和那不聽從我主耶穌福音的人。 9 他們要受刑罰，就是永遠沉淪，離開主的面和他權能的榮光。 10 這正是主降臨，要在他聖徒的身上得榮耀，又在一切信的人身上顯為稀奇的那日子。我們對你們作的見證，你們也信了。
主在門徒身上得榮耀之名
11 因此，我們常為你們禱告，願我們的神看你們配得過所蒙的召，又用大能成就你們一切所羨慕的良善和一切因信心所做的工夫， 12 叫我們主耶穌的名在你們身上得榮耀，你們也在他身上得榮耀，都照著我們的神並主耶穌基督的恩。
帖撒羅尼迦後書 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
1 我保羅同西拉和提摩太寫信給帖撒羅尼迦屬於我們父上帝和主耶穌基督的教會。
2 願我們的父上帝和主耶穌基督賜給你們恩典和平安！
感恩與勸勉
3 弟兄姊妹，我們應當為你們常常感謝上帝，這是合宜的，因為你們的信心不斷增長，彼此相愛的心也不斷增加。 4 因此，我們在上帝的眾教會中誇獎你們在各種迫害和患難中的堅忍和信心。 5 你們這種表現正是上帝公義審判的明證，使你們配進上帝的國，你們正在為這國受苦。
6 上帝是公義的，祂必以患難來報應那些迫害你們的人。 7 當主耶穌和祂大能的天使在烈焰中從天上顯現時，祂必使你們這些受苦的人和我們同得安慰， 8 懲罰那些不認識上帝、不聽從有關我們主耶穌之福音的人。 9 那些人要受的刑罰就是離開主的面和祂榮耀的權能，永遠滅亡。 10 主降臨的那日，祂要在祂的眾聖徒中得到榮耀，使所有的信徒驚歎不已。你們也會在當中，因為你們相信了我們做的見證。
11 因此，我們常常為你們禱告，願我們的上帝看你們配得祂的呼召，用大能成全你們一切美好的心願和憑信心所做的工作。 12 這樣，按照我們的上帝和主耶穌基督所賜的恩典，主耶穌基督的名便在你們身上得到榮耀，你們也在祂身上得到榮耀。
2 Thessalonians 1
King James Version
1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;
4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment 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 recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
10 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) in that day.
11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the 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 the Lord Jesus Christ.
