11 Please try to live a quiet life. Mind your own business. Work with your hands as we told you to do.
12 Then people who do not belong to the church will respect you. And you will not need help from anyone. here is something I want you to know about those who have died. You should not cry for them like people cry who have no hope.
13 We believe that Jesus died and rose again. And because of what Jesus did, God will bring back with him those who have died.
