1 Thessalonians 1:2-10

2 1We alwaysG3842 giveG2168 thanksG2168 to GodG2316 for allG3956 of you, 2makingG4160 mentionG3417 of you in our prayersG4335;

3constantlyG89 keepingG3421 inG3421 mindG3421 your 3workG2041 of faithG4102 and laborG2873 of 4loveG26 and 5 6perseveranceG5281 of hopeG1680 7in our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 inG1715 theG1715 presenceG1715 of 8our GodG2316 and FatherG3962,

4knowingG3609, 9brothersG80 and sisters, belovedG25 by GodG2316, 10His choiceG1589 of you;

5for our 11gospelG2098 did not comeG1096 to you in wordG3056 onlyG3440, but alsoG2532 12in powerG1411 and in the HolyG40 SpiritG4151 and with 13fullG4183 convictionG4136; justG2531 asG2531 you knowG3609 14whatG3634 kindG3634 ofG3634 menG3634 we provedG1096 toG1096 beG1096 amongG1722 you for your sakesG1223.

6You alsoG2532 becameG1096 15imitatorsG3402 of us and of the LordG2962, 16having receivedG1209 17the wordG3056 during greatG4183 afflictionG2347 with the 18joyG5479 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151,

7soG5620 thatG5620 you becameG1096 an exampleG5179 to allG3956 the believersG4100 in 19MacedoniaG3109 and 20AchaiaG882.

8For 21the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 has 22soundedG1837 forthG1837 from you, not onlyG3440 in 23MacedoniaG3109 and 24AchaiaG882, but 25in everyG3956 placeG5117 the news of your faithG4102 towardG4314 GodG2316 has goneG1831 outG1831, soG5620 thatG5620 we haveG2192 noG3361 needG5532 to sayG2980 anythingG5100.

9For they themselvesG846 reportG518 aboutG4012 us 26as to the kindG3697 of 27receptionG1529 we hadG2192 with you, and howG4459 you 28turnedG1994 to GodG2316 29from 30idolsG1497 to serveG1398 31 32a livingG2198 and trueG228 GodG2316,

10and to 33waitG362 forG362 His SonG5207 from 34heavenG3772, whomG3739 He 35raisedG1453 from the deadG3498, that is, JesusG2424 who 36rescuesG4506 us from 37the wrathG3709 to comeG2064.
