1 Thessalonians 4:7-12
7For 1GodG2316 has not calledG2564 us for 2the purpose of impurityG167, but 3in sanctificationG38. 8SoG5105, he who rejectsG114 this is not rejectingG114 manG444 but the GodG2316 who 4givesG1325 His HolyG40 SpiritG4151 to you.
9NowG1161 as to the 5loveG5360 of the brethrenG5360, you 6haveG2192 noG3756 needG5532 for anyone to writeG1125 to you, for you yourselvesG846 are 7taughtG2312 by GodG2312 to loveG25 oneG240 anotherG240; 10for indeedG2532 8you do practiceG4160 it towardG1519 allG3956 the brethrenG80 whoG3588 are in allG3650 MacedoniaG3109. But we urgeG3870 you, brethrenG80, to 9excelG4052 stillG3123 moreG3123, 11and to makeG5389 it your ambitionG5389 10to leadG2270 a quietG2270 lifeG2270 and 11attendG4238 to your ownG2398 business and 12workG2038 with your handsG5495, justG2531 as we commandedG3853 you, 12soG2443 that you will 1314behaveG4043 properlyG2156 towardG4314 15outsidersG3588G1854 and 1617not be in anyG3367 needG5532.
