1 Paul Paulos, · kai Silvanus Silouanos, and kai Timothy Timotheos, to the ho church ekklēsia of the Thessalonians Thessalonikeus in en God theos our hēmeis Father patēr and kai the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos: ² Grace charis to you hymeis and kai peace eirēnē from apo God theos our hēmeis Father patēr and kai the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos.

³ We ought opheilō always pantote to thank eucharisteō · ho God theos for peri you hymeis, brothers adelphos, as kathōs is eimi fitting axios, because hoti your hymeis faith pistis is growing abundantly hyperauxanō, · ho and kai the ho love agapē of each hekastos one heis of you hymeis for eis one another allēlōn is increasing pleonazō, ⁴ so that hōste we hēmeis ourselves autos boast enkauchaomai about en you hymeis in en the ho churches ekklēsia of ho God theos for hyper · ho your hymeis patience hypomonē and kai faith pistis in en all pas the ho persecutions diōgmos and kai · ho afflictions thlipsis that hos you are enduring anechōmai.

⁵ This is evidence endeigma of the ho righteous dikaios judgment krisis of ho God theos, and results in eis your hymeis being considered worthy kataxioō of the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos, for hyper which hos you are indeed kai suffering paschō. ⁶ For eiper it is a righteous thing dikaios for para God theos to repay antapodidōmi with affliction thlipsis those ho who afflict thlibō you hymeis, ⁷ and kai to give relief anesis to you hymeis who ho are afflicted thlibō, and to meta us hēmeis as well, when en · ho the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous is revealed apokalypsis from apo heaven ouranos with meta his autos mighty dynamis angels angelos ⁸ in en flaming phlox fire pyr, inflicting didōmi punishment ekdikēsis on those ho who do not mē know oida God theos, and kai who ho do not mē obey hypakouō the ho gospel euangelion of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous. ⁹ They hostis will experience tinō the punishment dikē of eternal aiōnios destruction olethros, away from apo the presence prosōpon of the ho Lord kyrios and kai from apo the ho glory doxa of ho his autos power ischus ¹⁰ on en that ekeinos day hēmera when hotan he comes erchomai to be glorified endoxazomai in en · ho his autos saints hagios, and kai to be marveled thaumazō at by en all pas who ho have believed pisteuō, because hoti our hēmeis testimony martyrion to epi you hymeis was believed pisteuō. · ho · ho

¹¹ With kai this hos in view eis we pray proseuchomai for peri you hymeis constantly pantote, that hina our hēmeis God theos will count you hymeis worthy axioō of ho his calling klēsis, · ho and kai by en his power dynamis bring to fulfillment plēroō every pas good eudokia resolve agathōsynē and kai work ergon of faith pistis, ¹² so that hopōs the ho name onoma of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous may be glorified endoxazomai in en you hymeis, and kai you hymeis in en him autos, according to kata the ho grace charis of ho our hēmeis God theos and kai the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos.

2 Now de concerning hyper the ho coming parousia of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos and kai our hēmeis assembling episynagōgē to epi him autos, we ask erōtaō you hymeis, brothers adelphos, ² not mē to be quickly tacheōs shaken saleuō out of apo your ho wits nous or mēde disturbed throeō, either mēte by dia a prophecy pneuma or mēte by dia a spoken word logos or mēte by dia a letter epistolē purporting hōs to come from dia us hēmeis, to the effect hōs that hoti the ho day hēmera of the ho Lord kyrios is already here enistēmi.

³ Let exapataō no mē one tis deceive exapataō you hymeis in kata any mēdeis way tropos; for hoti that day will erchomai not come erchomai unless ean the ho rebellion apostasia comes first prōton and kai the ho man anthrōpos of ho lawlessness anomia is revealed apokalyptō, the ho son hyios of ho destruction apōleia, ⁴ who ho opposes antikeimai and kai exalts hyperairō himself above epi every pas so-called legō god theos or ē object sebasma of worship , so that hōste he autos takes his seat kathizō in eis the ho temple naos of ho God theos, proclaiming apodeiknymi that hoti he himself heautou is eimi God theos.

⁵ Do you not ou remember mnēmoneuō that hoti I told legō you hymeis this houtos while I was eimi still eti with pros you hymeis? ⁶ And kai now nyn you know oida what ho is holding him in check katechō, so that eis he autos may be revealed apokalyptō at en · ho his heautou proper time kairos. ⁷ For gar the ho mystery mystērion of ho lawlessness anomia is already ēdē at work energeō; however monon, the ho one who is now arti restraining katechō will continue to do so until heōs he is taken ginomai away ek mesos. ⁸ And kai then tote the ho lawless one anomos will be revealed apokalyptō, whom hos the ho Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous will destroy anaireō with the ho breath pneuma of ho his autos mouth stoma, and kai bring katargeō to an end with the ho splendor epiphaneia of ho his autos coming parousia. ⁹ The ho coming parousia of the lawless one hos will be eimi according kata to the activity energeia of ho Satan Satanas, with en all pas kinds of false pseudos miracles dynamis, · kai signs sēmeion, and kai wonders teras, ¹⁰ and kai with en every pas kind of wicked adikia deception apatē for those ho who are perishing apollymi, because anti hos they did dechomai not ou accept dechomai the ho love agapē of the ho truth alētheia so as eis to be saved sōzō. ¹¹ · kai For dia this houtos reason God theos will send pempō them autos · ho an active energeia delusion planē leading eis them autos to believe pisteuō the ho lie pseudos, ¹² that hina they all pas may be condemned krinō who ho did not mē believe pisteuō the ho truth alētheia but alla took eudokeō pleasure in ho unrighteousness adikia.

¹³ But de we hēmeis ought opheilō always pantote to thank eucharisteō · ho God theos for peri you hymeis, brothers adelphos loved agapaō by hypo the Lord kyrios, because hoti God theos chose haireō you hymeis · ho as first fruits aparchē for eis salvation sōtēria, by en sanctification hagiasmos of the Spirit pneuma and kai belief pistis in the truth alētheia. ¹⁴ And kai he called kaleō you hymeis to eis this hos salvation through dia · ho our hēmeis gospel euangelion, that eis you might come to share peripoiēsis the glory doxa of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos.

¹⁵ So ara then oun, brothers adelphos, stand stēkō firm and kai hold krateō to the ho traditions paradosis that hos you were taught didaskō, either eite by dia what we said logos or eite what we hēmeis wrote epistolē.

¹⁶ Now de may · ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos himself autos and kai · ho God theos · ho our hēmeis Father patēr, who ho has loved agapaō us hēmeis and kai given didōmi us eternal aiōnios encouragement paraklēsis and kai good agathos hope elpis by en grace charis, ¹⁷ encourage parakaleō your hymeis · ho hearts kardia and kai establish stērizō you in en every pas good agathos work ergon and kai word logos.

3 · ho Finally loipos, brothers adelphos, pray proseuchomai for peri us hēmeis, that hina the ho word logos of the ho Lord kyrios may spread rapidly trechō and kai be honored doxazō, as kathōs in fact kai it was among pros you hymeis. ² Pray also kai that hina we may be delivered rhyomai from apo · ho unprincipled atopos and kai wicked ponēros men anthrōpos; for gar not ou all pas belong to the ho faith pistis.

³ But de the ho Lord kyrios is eimi faithful pistos; he hos will establish stērizō you hymeis and kai guard phylassō you from apo the ho evil one ponēros. ⁴ And de we are confident peithō in en the Lord kyrios regarding epi you hymeis, that hoti · kai you are doing poieō and kai will continue to do poieō the things hos we require parangellō of you.

⁵ Now de may the ho Lord kyrios direct kateuthunō your hymeis · ho hearts kardia into eis the ho love agapē of ho God theos and kai into eis the ho endurance hypomonē of ho Christ Christos.

⁶ But de we charge parangellō you hymeis, brothers adelphos, in en the name onoma of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos, to stay away stellō from apo any pas brother adelphos who conducts himself peripateō in a disorderly manner ataktōs and kai not mē according to kata the ho tradition paradosis that hos they received paralambanō from para us hēmeis. ⁷ For gar you yourselves autos know oida how pōs our hēmeis example should dei be followed mimeomai, because hoti we did not ou lead disorderly lives atakteō among en you hymeis, ⁸ nor oude did we eat esthiō anyone’ s tis food artos without paying dōrean for it. Instead alla we kept working ergazomai night nyx and kai day hēmera with en toil kopos and kai hardship mochthos, so pros we would not mē be a burden epibareō to any tis of you hymeis, ⁹ not ou because hoti we do not ou have echō the right exousia, but alla in order to hina make didōmi ourselves heautou an example typos for you hymeis to eis imitate mimeomai. ¹⁰ For gar even kai when hote we were eimi with pros you hymeis, we gave you hymeis this houtos charge parangellō: “ If ei anyone tis is not ou willing thelō to work ergazomai, then he should not mēde eat esthiō.” ¹¹ For gar we hear akouō that some tis among en you hymeis are conducting themselves peripateō in a disorderly manner ataktōs, doing nothing mēdeis themselves ergazomai, but alla meddling in the affairs of others periergazomai. ¹² · ho · de Such people toioutos we charge parangellō and kai exhort parakaleō in en the Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos that hina they work ergazomai quietly meta hēsychia and eat esthiō · ho their own heautou food artos. ¹³ But de you hymeis, brothers adelphos, must not mē become discouraged in doing what is right kalopoieō.

¹⁴ Now de if ei anyone tis does not ou obey hypakouō what ho we hēmeis say logos in dia · ho this houtos letter epistolē, take note sēmeioō of that person and do not mē associate with him autos, so that hina he will feel ashamed entrepō. ¹⁵ · kai Do hēgeomai not mē regard hēgeomai him as hōs an enemy echthros, but alla admonish noutheteō him as hōs a brother adelphos.

¹⁶ Now de may the ho Lord kyrios of ho peace eirēnē himself autos give didōmi you hymeis · ho peace eirēnē always dia pas in en every pas circumstance tropos. The ho Lord kyrios be with meta you hymeis all pas.

¹⁷ The ho greeting aspasmos is with ho my own emos hand cheir—Paul’ s Paulos— which hos is eimi a mark sēmeion of genuineness in en every pas letter epistolē; so houtōs I write graphō.

¹⁸ The ho grace charis of ho our hēmeis Lord kyrios Jesus Iēsous Christ Christos be with meta you hymeis all pas.
