帖撒罗尼迦后书 3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
请求代祷
3 弟兄姊妹,最后我还要请你们为我们祷告,好使主的道像在你们那里一样迅速传开,受到尊崇, 2 并使我们能避开那些邪恶的人,因为不是人人都有信心。
3 主是信实的,祂必使你们刚强,保护你们脱离那恶者。 4 我们靠着主深信你们现在遵行了我们的吩咐,而且以后还会继续遵行。
5 愿主引导你们的心领悟上帝的爱和基督的坚忍。
不可游手好闲
6 弟兄姊妹,现在我们奉主耶稣基督的名吩咐你们,要远离那些游手好闲、不遵守我们教导的信徒。 7 你们自己知道应该怎样效法我们,因为我们在你们那里的时候,并没有懒懒散散, 8 也没有白吃谁的饭,而是昼夜辛勤工作,免得成为你们任何人的负担。 9 我们并不是没有权利接受供应,而是要给你们树立学习的榜样。 10 我们在你们那里的时候,曾吩咐过你们:不肯工作的人没有资格吃饭。 11 我们听说在你们当中有些人游手好闲,无所事事,却专管闲事。 12 我们奉主耶稣基督的名吩咐并劝诫这些人要安分守己,自食其力。
13 弟兄姊妹,你们要坚持行善,不要灰心。 14 如果有人不听从这信上的教导,要注意提防他,不要和他来往,好使他羞愧。 15 只是不可把他当作仇人,要像对待弟兄姊妹一样劝诫他。
问候
16 愿平安之主随时随地亲自赐你们平安!愿主与你们同在! 17 我保罗在这里亲笔问候你们,这是我的笔迹,我所有的信都以此为记号。
18 愿我们主耶稣基督的恩典与你们众人同在!
2 Thessalonians 3

Pray for Us
3 Finally, brothers, pray for us that the Lord’s message may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you,(A) 2 and that we may be delivered(B) from wicked and evil men, for not all have faith.[a] 3 But the Lord is faithful; He will strengthen and guard you from the evil one.(C) 4 We have confidence in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do what we command. 5 May the Lord direct your hearts to God’s love and Christ’s endurance.(D)
Warning against Irresponsible Behavior
6 Now we command you, brothers, in the name(E) of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from every brother(F) who walks irresponsibly and not according to the tradition(G) received(H) from us. 7 For you yourselves know how you must imitate(I) us: We were not irresponsible among you; 8 we did not eat(J) anyone’s food[b] free of charge;(K) instead, we labored(L) and struggled,(M) working(N) night and day, so that we would not be a burden(O) to any of you. 9 It is not that we don’t have the right(P) to support, but we did it to make ourselves an example to you so that you would imitate(Q) us. 10 In fact, when we were with you, this is what we commanded you: “If anyone isn’t willing to work, he should not eat.”(R) 11 For we hear that there are some among you who walk irresponsibly, not working at all, but interfering with the work of others.(S) 12 Now we command and exhort such people by the Lord Jesus Christ that quietly working, they may eat their own food.[c] 13 Brothers, do not grow weary(T) in doing good.
14 And if anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take note of that person; don’t associate with him, so that he may be ashamed. 15 Yet don’t treat him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.
Final Greetings
16 May the Lord of peace(U) Himself give you peace always in every way.(V) The Lord be with all of you.(W) 17 This greeting is in my own hand(X)—Paul. This is a sign in every letter; this is how I write. 18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.

2 Thessalonians 3
King James Version
3 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:
2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.
3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil.
4 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.
5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
7 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;
8 Neither did we eat any man's bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
15 Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.
17 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
