[1][2][3]

2 Thessalonians
Chapter 3

3:1 Furthermore, brethren, pray* concerning us, in order that the word of the Lord may run onward and may be glorified, just-as it is also with you*;

3:2 and in order that we may be rescued from the improper and evil men; for* the faith is not of all.

3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who will be establishing you* and will be guarding you* from the evil one.

3:4 Now we have confidence in the Lord on the basis of you*, that you* are both practicing and will be practicing the things which we command you*.

3:5 Now may the Lord steer your* hearts into the love* of God and into the endurance of the Christ.


3:6 Now brethren, we are commanding you* in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to withdraw yourselves from every brother who is walking disorderly and not according to the tradition which they received from us.

3:7 For* you* yourselves know how it is essential for you* to imitate us. Because we did not act-disorderly among you*;

3:8 nor did we eat bread freely from anyone, but in labor and hardship, working night and day, in order to not burden anyone of you*;

3:9 not because we did not have the authority, but in order that we might give ourselves as an example to you*, *that* you* might imitate us.

3:10 For* even when we were with you*, we were commanding you* this, If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.

3:11 For* we hear there are some who are walking disorderly among you*, working at nothing, but are busybodies.

3:12 Now we are commanding to such and are encouraging through our Lord Jesus Christ, in order that they work with quietness and should eat their own bread.

3:13 But you* brethren, do* not be depressed in doing good.

3:14 And if anyone is not obeying* our word through this letter, mark* that man and do* not socialize together with him, in order that he may be embarrassed.

3:15 And yet do* not deem him as an enemy, but admonish* him like a brother.

3:16 Now the Lord of peace himself may give you* peace always in every manner. The Lord is with all of you*.


3:17 The greeting from me, Paul, I thus am writing with my own hand, which is the sign in every letter.

3:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with all of you*. Amen. {NOTES: Please read the Preface and other non-bible sections. * is our universal footnoting for words contained in the 'Definitions' section. These words are NOT the same Greek word as the non-asterisk form; i.e. *FOR is different from FOR* is different from FOR.}
