1 Thessalonians 1
Easy-to-Read Version
1 Greetings from Paul, Silas, and Timothy.
To the church of those in Thessalonica, who are in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Grace and peace be yours.
The Life and Faith of the Thessalonians
2 We always remember you when we pray, and we thank God for all of you. 3 Every time we pray to God our Father, we thank him for all that you have done because of your faith. And we thank him for the work you have done because of your love. And we thank him that you continue to be strong because of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Brothers and sisters, God loves you. And we know that he has chosen you to be his people. 5 When we brought the Good News to you, we came with more than words. We brought that Good News with power, with the Holy Spirit, and with the sure knowledge that it was true. Also you know how we lived when we were with you. We lived that way to help you. 6 And you became like us and like the Lord. You suffered much, but still you accepted the teaching with joy. The Holy Spirit gave you that joy.
7 You became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. 8 The Lord’s teaching has spread from you throughout Greece and beyond. In fact, your faith in God has become known everywhere, so we never have to tell anyone about it. 9 People everywhere are already telling the story about the good way you accepted us when we were there with you. They tell about how you stopped worshiping idols and changed to serve the living and true God. 10 And you began waiting for God’s Son to come from heaven—the Son God raised from death. He is Jesus, who saves us from God’s angry judgment that is coming.

Indirizzo. Ringraziamento e felicitazioni
1 Paolo, Silvano e Timòteo alla Chiesa dei Tessalonicesi che è in Dio Padre e nel Signore Gesù Cristo: grazia a voi e pace! 2 Ringraziamo sempre Dio per tutti voi, ricordandovi nelle nostre preghiere, continuamente 3 memori davanti a Dio e Padre nostro del vostro impegno nella fede, della vostra operosità nella carità e della vostra costante speranza nel Signore nostro Gesù Cristo. 4 Noi ben sappiamo, fratelli amati da Dio, che siete stati eletti da lui. 5 Il nostro vangelo, infatti, non si è diffuso fra voi soltanto per mezzo della parola, ma anche con potenza e con Spirito Santo e con profonda convinzione, come ben sapete che siamo stati in mezzo a voi per il vostro bene.
6 E voi siete diventati imitatori nostri e del Signore, avendo accolto la parola con la gioia dello Spirito Santo anche in mezzo a grande tribolazione, 7 così da diventare modello a tutti i credenti che sono nella Macedonia e nell'Acaia. 8 Infatti la parola del Signore riecheggia per mezzo vostro non soltanto in Macedonia e nell'Acaia, ma la fama della vostra fede in Dio si è diffusa dappertutto, di modo che non abbiamo più bisogno di parlarne. 9 Sono loro infatti a parlare di noi, dicendo come noi siamo venuti in mezzo a voi e come vi siete convertiti a Dio, allontanandovi dagli idoli, per servire al Dio vivo e vero 10 e attendere dai cieli il suo Figlio, che egli ha risuscitato dai morti, Gesù, che ci libera dall'ira ventura.
1-е Фессалоникийцам 1
Russian Synodal Version
1 Павел и Силуан и Тимофей--церкви Фессалоникской в Боге Отце и Господе Иисусе Христе: благодать вам и мир от Бога Отца нашего и Господа Иисуса Христа.
2 Всегда благодарим Бога за всех вас, вспоминая о вас в молитвах наших,
3 непрестанно памятуя ваше дело веры и труд любви и терпение упования на Господа нашего Иисуса Христа пред Богом и Отцем нашим,
4 зная избрание ваше, возлюбленные Богом братия;
5 потому что наше благовествование у вас было не в слове только, но и в силе и во Святом Духе, и со многим удостоверением, как вы [сами] знаете, каковы были мы для вас между вами.
6 И вы сделались подражателями нам и Господу, приняв слово при многих скорбях с радостью Духа Святаго,
7 так что вы стали образцом для всех верующих в Македонии и Ахаии.
8 Ибо от вас пронеслось слово Господне не только в Македонии и Ахаии, но и во всяком месте прошла [слава] о вере вашей в Бога, так что нам ни о чем не нужно рассказывать.
9 Ибо сами они сказывают о нас, какой вход имели мы к вам, и как вы обратились к Богу от идолов, [чтобы] служить Богу живому и истинному
10 и ожидать с небес Сына Его, Которого Он воскресил из мертвых, Иисуса, избавляющего нас от грядущего гнева.
1 Thessalonians 1
New International Version
1 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
2 We always thank God for all of you(E) and continually mention you in our prayers.(F) 3 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.
4 For we know, brothers and sisters[b] loved by God,(K) that he has chosen you, 5 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. 6 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) 7 And so you became a model(S) to all the believers in Macedonia(T) and Achaia.(U) 8 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, 9 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)

1 Thessalonians 1
King James Version
1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
5 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
6 And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost.
7 So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
8 For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;
10 And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
