2 Thessalonians 3:12-18

12Now we command and 1exhort such persons in the Lord Jesus Christ to 2work 3peacefully and eat their own bread. 13But as for you, 4brothers and sisters, 5do not grow weary of doing good.

14If anyone does not obey our 6instruction 7 8in this letter, take special note of that person so as 9not to associate with him, so that he will be 10put to shame. 15And yet 11do not regard that person as an enemy, but 12 13admonish that one as a 14brother or sister.

16Now 15may the Lord of peace 16Himself continually grant you peace in every 17circumstance. 18The Lord be with you all!

17 19I, Paul, write this greeting 20with my own hand, and this is a distinguishing mark in every letter; this is the way I write. 18 21The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
