3:6 Now brethren, we are commanding you° in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ for you° to withdraw 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 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 do not have 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°, not working, 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° for yourselves this one and do° not socialize together-with him in-order-that he should be embarrassed. 3:15 And yet do° not deem him as an enemy, but admonish° him like a brother.
3:16 Now may the Lord of peace himself 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 a sign in every letter. 3:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with all of you°. Amen.
