帖撒罗尼迦后书 1
Chinese New Version (Simplified)

问安

1 保罗、西拉和提摩太，写信给帖撒罗尼迦、在我们的父　神和主耶稣基督里的教会。 2 愿恩惠平安从父　神和主耶稣基督临到你们。

主再来时必施行审判

3 弟兄们，我们应该常常为你们感谢　神，这是合适的。因为你们的信心格外长进，你们众人彼此相爱的心也在增加。 4 所以我们在　神的众教会里，亲自夸奖你们，因为你们在所受的一切迫害患难中，仍然存着坚忍和信心。 5 这正是　神公义判断的明证，使你们可以算是配得上他的国；你们也是为了　神的国而受苦。 6-7 　神既然是公义的，主耶稣和他有能力的天使从天上显现在火焰中的时候，就使你们这些受灾难的人，可以和我们同享安息；却以灾难报应那些把灾难加给你们的人。 8 又要报应那些不认识　神、不听从我们主耶稣的福音的人。 9-10 当主来的时候，他们要受永远沉沦的惩罚，就是离开主的面和他权能的荣光。在那一天，他要在圣徒身上得着荣耀，又要在所有信徒身上受到尊崇（你们也在他们当中，因为你们信了我们向你们所作的见证）。 11 因此，我们常常为你们祷告，愿我们的　神看你们是配得上所蒙的召，又用大能成就你们所羡慕的一切良善和信心的工作， 12 使我们主耶稣的名，照着我们的　神和主耶稣基督的恩，在你们身上得着荣耀，你们也在他身上得着荣耀。

2 Thessalonians 1
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

I. Address

Chapter 1

Greeting.[a] 1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:(A) 2 grace to you and peace from God [our] Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thanksgiving. 3 [b]We ought to thank God always for you, brothers, as is fitting, because your faith flourishes ever more, and the love of every one of you for one another grows ever greater.(B) 4 Accordingly, we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God regarding your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and the afflictions you endure.

5 This is evidence of the just judgment of God, so that you may be considered worthy of the kingdom of God for which you are suffering.(C) 6 For it is surely just on God’s part to repay with afflictions those who are afflicting you, 7 and to grant rest along with us to you who are undergoing afflictions, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels, 8 in blazing fire, inflicting punishment on those who do not acknowledge God and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.(D) 9 These will pay the penalty of eternal ruin, separated from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power,(E) 10 when he comes to be glorified among his holy ones[c] and to be marveled at on that day among all who have believed, for our testimony to you was believed.(F)

Prayer. 11 To this end, we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling and powerfully bring to fulfillment every good purpose and every effort of faith,(G) 12 [d]that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him,(H) in accord with the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.

Footnotes

  1. 1:1–2 On the address, see note on Rom 1:1–7 and cf. 1 Thes 1:1.
  2. 1:3–12 On the thanksgiving, see note on Rom 1:8 and cf. 1 Thes 1:2–10. Paul’s gratitude to God for the faith and love of the Thessalonians (2 Thes 1:3) and his Christian pride in their faithful endurance (2 Thes 1:4–5) contrast with the condemnation announced for those who afflict them, a judgment to be carried out at the parousia (2 Thes 1:6–10), which is described in vivid language drawn from Old Testament apocalyptic. A prayer for the fulfillment of God’s purpose in the Thessalonians (2 Thes 1:11–12) completes the section, as is customary in a Pauline letter (cf. 1 Thes 1:2–3).
  3. 1:10 Among his holy ones: in the Old Testament, this term can refer to an angelic throng (cf. also Jude 14), but here, in parallel with among all who have believed, it can refer to the triumphant people of God.
  4. 1:12 The grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ: the Greek can also be translated, “the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

2 Thessalonians 1
New International Version

1 Paul, Silas[a](A) and Timothy,(B)

To the church of the Thessalonians(C) in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Grace and peace to you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.(D)

Thanksgiving and Prayer

3 We ought always to thank God for you,(E) brothers and sisters,[b] and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love all of you have for one another is increasing.(F) 4 Therefore, among God’s churches we boast(G) about your perseverance and faith(H) in all the persecutions and trials you are enduring.(I)

5 All this is evidence(J) that God’s judgment is right, and as a result you will be counted worthy(K) of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering. 6 God is just:(L) He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you(M) 7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven(N) in blazing fire(O) with his powerful angels.(P) 8 He will punish(Q) those who do not know God(R) and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.(S) 9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction(T) and shut out from the presence of the Lord(U) and from the glory of his might(V) 10 on the day(W) he comes to be glorified(X) in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.(Y)

11 With this in mind, we constantly pray for you,(Z) that our God may make you worthy(AA) of his calling,(AB) and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness(AC) and your every deed prompted by faith.(AD) 12 We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you,(AE) and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.[c]
