1 Thessalonians 5:12-28

12But we beg you, brethren, to know those who labour among you, and take the lead among you in [the] Lord, and admonish you, 13and to regard them exceedingly in love on account of their work. Be in peace among yourselves. 14But we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, comfort the faint-hearted, sustain the weak, be patient towards all. 15See that no one render to any evil for evil, but pursue always what is good towards one another and towards all; 16rejoice always; 17pray unceasingly; 18in everything give thanks, for this is [the] will of 1God in Christ Jesus towards you; 19quench not the Spirit; 20do not lightly esteem prophecies; 21but prove all things, hold fast the right; 22hold aloof from every form of wickedness. 23Now the 2God of peace himself sanctify you wholly: and your whole spirit, and soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 24He [is] faithful who calls you, who will also perform [it]. 25Brethren, pray for us. 26Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss. 27I adjure you by the Lord that the letter be read to all the [holy] brethren. 28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.
