2 Thessalonians 3
New King James Version
Pray for Us
3 Finally, brethren, (A)pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you, 2 and (B)that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men; (C)for not all have faith.
3 But (D)the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and (E)guard you from the evil one. 4 And (F)we have confidence in the Lord concerning you, both that you do and will do the things we command you.
5 Now may (G)the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.
Warning Against Idleness
6 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. 7 For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; 8 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, 9 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.

Biblia del Jubileo
3 ¶ Resta, hermanos, que oréis por nosotros, que la Palabra del Señor corra y sea hecha ilustre así como entre vosotros;
2 y que seamos librados de hombres inoportunos y malos; porque no es de todos la fe.
3 Mas fiel es el Señor, que os confirmará y guardará del mal.
4 Y tenemos confianza de vosotros en el Señor, que hacéis y haréis lo que os hemos mandado.
5 Y el Señor enderece vuestros corazones en la caridad de Dios, y en la esperanza del Cristo.
6 ¶ Pero os denunciamos, hermanos, en el nombre del Señor nuestro, Jesús el Cristo, que os apartéis de todo hermano que anduviere fuera de orden, y no conforme a la doctrina que recibieron de nosotros;
7 porque vosotros sabéis de qué manera es necesario imitarnos, porque no anduvimos desordenadamente entre vosotros,
8 ni comimos el pan de balde de ninguno; sino obrando con trabajo y fatiga de noche y de día, para no ser gravosos a ninguno de vosotros;
9 no porque no tuviéramos potestad, sino por daros en nosotros un ejemplo, para que nos imitarais.
10 Porque aun estando con vosotros, os denunciábamos esto: Que si alguno no quisiere trabajar, tampoco coma.
11 Porque oímos que andan algunos entre vosotros fuera de orden, no trabajando en nada, sino ocupados en curiosear.
12 Y a los tales denunciamos y rogamos en el Señor nuestro, Jesús el Cristo, que, trabajando con silencio, coman su pan.
13 Y vosotros, hermanos, no os canséis de hacer bien.
14 Y si alguno no oyere a nuestra palabra por esta carta, notad al tal, y no os juntéis con él, para que se avergüence.
15 Y no lo tengáis como a enemigo, sino amonestadle como a hermano.
16 ¶ Y el mismo Señor de paz os dé siempre paz en toda manera. El Señor sea con todos vosotros.
17 Salud de mi mano, Pablo, que es signo en todas mis cartas: así escribo.
18 La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesús el Cristo sea con todos vosotros. Amén.
