Pavel, Silvan(A) şi Timotei, către Biserica tesalonicenilor, care este în Dumnezeu Tatăl şi în Domnul Isus Hristos: Har(B) şi pace de la Dumnezeu, Tatăl nostru, şi de la Domnul Isus Hristos. Mulţumim(C) totdeauna lui Dumnezeu pentru voi toţi, pe care vă pomenim necurmat în rugăciunile noastre; căci ne aducem aminte fără încetare(D), înaintea lui Dumnezeu, Tatăl nostru, de lucrarea(E) credinţei voastre, de(F) osteneala dragostei voastre şi de tăria nădejdii în Domnul nostru Isus Hristos! Ştim, fraţi preaiubiţi de Dumnezeu, alegerea(G) voastră. În adevăr, Evanghelia(H) noastră v-a fost propovăduită nu numai cu vorbe, ci cu putere, cu Duhul Sfânt(I) şi cu o mare îndrăzneală(J). Căci ştiţi(K) că, din dragoste pentru voi, am fost aşa printre voi. Şi voi(L) înşivă aţi călcat pe urmele mele şi pe urmele Domnului, întrucât aţi primit Cuvântul în multe necazuri cu(M) bucuria care vine de la Duhul Sfânt; aşa că aţi ajuns o pildă pentru toţi credincioşii din Macedonia şi din Ahaia. În adevăr, nu numai că de la voi Cuvântul Domnului a(N) răsunat prin(O) Macedonia şi Ahaia, dar vestea despre credinţa voastră în Dumnezeu s-a răspândit pretutindeni, aşa că n-avem nevoie să mai vorbim de ea. Căci ei înşişi istorisesc ce(P) primire ne-aţi făcut şi(Q) cum de la idoli v-aţi întors la Dumnezeu, ca să slujiţi Dumnezeului celui viu şi adevărat 10 şi să(R) aşteptaţi din(S) ceruri pe Fiul Său, pe(T) care L-a înviat din morţi: pe Isus, care ne izbăveşte de(U) mânia viitoare.

Greeting

Paul, (A)Silvanus, and Timothy,

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

(C)Grace to you and peace.

The Thessalonians' Faith and Example

(D)We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly[a] (E)mentioning you in our prayers, remembering before (F)our God and Father (G)your work of faith and labor of (H)love and (I)steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. For we know, (J)brothers[b] loved by God, (K)that he has chosen you, because (L)our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and (M)in the Holy Spirit and with full (N)conviction. You know (O)what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake. And (P)you became imitators of us (Q)and of the Lord, for (R)you received the word in much affliction, (S)with the (T)joy of the Holy Spirit, so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. For not only has the word of the Lord (U)sounded forth from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but your faith in God has gone forth (V)everywhere, so that we need not say anything. For they themselves report concerning us the kind of (W)reception we had among you, and how (X)you turned to God (Y)from idols to serve the living and (Z)true God, 10 and (AA)to wait for his Son (AB)from heaven, (AC)whom he raised from the dead, Jesus (AD)who delivers us from (AE)the wrath to come.

Hälsning

Från Paulus, Silvanus och Timoteus till församlingen i Tessalonika som lever i Gud, Fadern, och Herren Jesus Kristus. Nåd och frid vare med er.

Apostelns tack och bön

Vi tackar alltid Gud för er alla när vi nämner er i våra böner, ty inför vår Gud och Fader tänker vi ständigt på er gärning i tron, ert arbete i kärleken och er uthållighet i hoppet till vår Herre Jesus Kristus. Vi vet att ni bröder, Guds älskade, är utvalda av Gud. Ty vårt evangelium kom till er inte bara i ord utan i kraft och den helige Ande och gav full visshet. Ni vet ju hur vi uppträdde bland er och vad vi gjorde för er. Och ni blev våra efterföljare, ja, Herrens, när ni mitt under svåra lidanden tog emot ordet med den glädje som den helige Ande ger. Så har ni blivit ett föredöme för alla troende i Makedonien och i Akaja. Ty från er har Herrens ord gett återljud, inte bara i Makedonien och Akaja, utan överallt har er tro på Gud blivit känd, så att vi inte behöver säga något. Själva berättar de om hur vi blev mottagna av er och hur ni omvände er till Gud, bort från avgudarna, för att tjäna den levande och sanne Guden 10 och vänta på hans Son från himlen, honom som Gud har uppväckt från de döda, Jesus, som har frälst oss från den kommande vredesdomen.

Paul, Silas[a](A) and Timothy,(B)

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

Grace and peace to you.(D)

Thanksgiving for the Thessalonians’ Faith

We always thank God for all of you(E) and continually mention you in our prayers.(F) We remember before our God and Father(G) your work produced by faith,(H) your labor prompted by love,(I) and your endurance inspired by hope(J) in our Lord Jesus Christ.

For we know, brothers and sisters[b] loved by God,(K) that he has chosen you, because our gospel(L) came to you not simply with words but also with power,(M) with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know(N) how we lived among you for your sake. You became imitators of us(O) and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe suffering(P) with the joy(Q) given by the Holy Spirit.(R) And so you became a model(S) to all the believers in Macedonia(T) and Achaia.(U) The Lord’s message(V) rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia—your faith in God has become known everywhere.(W) Therefore we do not need to say anything about it, for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned(X) to God from idols(Y) to serve the living and true God,(Z) 10 and to wait for his Son from heaven,(AA) whom he raised from the dead(AB)—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.(AC)
