帖撒羅尼迦前書 5
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
主的日子
5 弟兄們，關於這些時候和日期，你們不需要我寫什麼給你們了。 2 因為你們自己明確地知道，主的日子[a]來臨，就像夜裡的賊來臨那樣。 3 當人們正說「和平」、「安全」的時候，毀滅那時就突然臨到他們，就像孕婦的臨產陣痛那樣，他們絕不能逃脫。 4 不過弟兄們，你們不是在黑暗裡，以致那日子像賊一樣抓住你們。 5 因為你們都是光明的兒女，白晝的兒女。我們不屬於黑夜，也不屬於黑暗。 6 由此可見，我們不要像其他人那樣睡著了，而要警醒、謹慎。 7 因為睡覺的人是在夜裡睡，醉酒的人是在夜裡醉。 8 但我們既然屬於白晝，就讓我們謹慎，以信與愛做為護胸甲穿上，以救恩的盼望做為頭盔戴上。 9 因為神不是預定我們到震怒裡面，而是預定我們藉著我們的主耶穌基督獲得救恩。 10 基督替我們死，為要使我們無論是醒著還是睡著，都與他一同活著。 11 因此，你們要彼此鼓勵，互相造就，就像你們現在所做的那樣。
勸勉與祝福
12 弟兄們，我們請求你們：要敬重那些在你們中間勞苦做工、在主裡帶領[b]你們、勸誡你們的人， 13 因著他們的工作，要在愛中格外地看重他們。你們要彼此和睦。 14 弟兄們，我們勸你們：要勸誡懶散的人[c]，安慰膽怯的人，扶助軟弱的人，對所有的人都要恆久忍耐。 15 你們要注意，誰都不要以惡報惡；相反，無論是彼此之間，還是對待眾人，總要追求美善。
16 要常常歡喜，
17 不住地禱告，
18 凡事感謝；
因為這是神在基督耶穌裡對你們的旨意。
19 不要消滅聖靈[d]的感動[e]，
20 不要輕視做先知傳道[f]，
21 卻要凡事分辨，
要持守美善，
22 連一切惡的樣式都要遠避。
23 願賜平安的神親自使你們完全分別為聖。願你們的靈、魂、體，在我們的主耶穌基督來臨的時候，全然得蒙保守、無可指責。 24 召喚你們的那一位是信實的，他將成就這事。 25 弟兄們，請為我們禱告。 26 你們要用聖潔的親吻禮問候所有的弟兄。 27 我藉著主吩咐你們，要把這封信讀給所有[g]的弟兄聽。 28 願我們主耶穌基督的恩典與你們同在！[h]

1 Thessalonians 5
English Standard Version
The Day of the Lord
5 Now concerning (A)the times and the seasons, brothers,[a] (B)you have no need to have anything written to you. 2 For you yourselves are fully aware that (C)the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3 While people are saying, “There is peace and security,” then (D)sudden destruction will come upon them (E)as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you (F)are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief. 5 For you are all (G)children[b] of light, children of the day. We are not of the night or of the darkness. 6 So then (H)let us not sleep, as others do, but let us (I)keep awake and (J)be sober. 7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, (K)are drunk at night. 8 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, (L)having put on the breastplate of (M)faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation. 9 For God has not destined us for (N)wrath, but (O)to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 (P)who died for us so that whether we are awake or asleep we might live with him. 11 Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.
Final Instructions and Benediction
12 We ask you, brothers, (Q)to respect those who labor among you and (R)are over you in the Lord and admonish you, 13 and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. (S)Be at peace among yourselves. 14 And we urge you, brothers, admonish (T)the idle,[c] (U)encourage the fainthearted, (V)help the weak, (W)be patient with them all. 15 See that (X)no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always (Y)seek to do good to one another and to everyone. 16 (Z)Rejoice always, 17 (AA)pray without ceasing, 18 (AB)give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 19 (AC)Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not despise (AD)prophecies, 21 but (AE)test everything; hold fast what is good. 22 Abstain from every form of evil.
23 Now may (AF)the God of peace himself (AG)sanctify you completely, and may your (AH)whole (AI)spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at (AJ)the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24 (AK)He who calls you is faithful; (AL)he will surely do it.
25 (AM)Brothers, pray for us.
26 (AN)Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.
27 I put you under oath before the Lord to have (AO)this letter read to all the brothers.
28 (AP)The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
