1 Thessalonians 5:12-28
12But we ask you, brothers and sisters, to 1recognize those 2who diligently labor among you and 34are in leadership over you in the Lord, and give you 5instruction, 13and that you regard them very highly in love because of their work. 6Live in peace with one another. 14We urge you, brothers and sisters, admonish 7the 8unruly, encourage 9the fainthearted, help 10the weak, be 11patient with everyone. 15See that 12no one repays another with evil for evil, but always 13seek what is good for one another and for all people. 1614Rejoice always, 1715pray without ceasing, 18in everything 16give thanks; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. 1917Do not quench the Spirit, 20do not utterly reject 1819prophecies, 21but 20examine everything; 21hold firmly to that which is good, 22abstain from every 22form of evil.
23Now 23may the God of peace 24Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your 25spirit and soul and body be kept complete, 26without blame at 27the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2428Faithful is He who 29calls you, and He also will do it.
25Brothers and sisters, 30pray for us31.
2632Greet all the brothers and sisters with a holy kiss. 27I put you under oath by the Lord to 33have this letter read to all the 34brothers and sisters.
