2 Thessalonians 3

Request for Prayer

11FinallyG3062, brothersG80 and sisters, 2prayG4336 for us that 3the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 will 4spreadG5143 rapidlyG5143 and be glorifiedG1392, justG2531 asG2531 it was alsoG2532 with you; 2and that we will be 5rescuedG4506 from troublesomeG824 and evilG4190 peopleG444; for not allG3956 have the faithG4102. 3But 6the LordG2962 is faithfulG4103, 7and He will strengthenG4741 and protectG5442 you 8from 9the evilG4190 oneG4190. 4We haveG3982 10confidenceG3982 in the LordG2962 concerningG1909 you, that you 11are doingG4160, and will doG4160, whatG3739 we commandG3853. 5May the LordG2962 12directG2720 your heartsG2588 to the loveG26 of GodG2316 and to the perseveranceG5281 of ChristG5547.

6NowG1161 we commandG3853 you, brothersG80 and sisters, 13in the nameG3686 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547, that you 1415keepG4724 awayG4724 from everyG3956 brotherG80 or sister who 16leadsG4043 a 1718disorderlyG814 lifeG4043 and not one inG2596 accordanceG2596 withG2596 19the traditionG3862 whichG3739 20you receivedG3880 from us. 7For you yourselvesG846 knowG3609 howG4459 you oughtG1163 to 2122followG3401 our exampleG3401, becauseG3754 we did not actG812 inG812 anG812 undisciplinedG812 wayG812 amongG1722 you, 8norG3761 did we 23eatG2068 24anyone’sG3844G5100 breadG740 25withoutG1432 payingG1432 for it, but with 26laborG2873 and hardshipG3449 we kept 27workingG2038 nightG3571 and dayG2250 soG4314 thatG4314 we would not be a burdenG1912 to anyG5100 of you; 9not becauseG3754 we do not haveG2192 28the rightG1849 to this, but inG2443 orderG2443 toG2443 offerG1325 ourselvesG1438 29as a roleG5179 modelG5179 for you, soG1519 thatG1519 you would 30followG3401 our exampleG3401. 10For evenG2532 31whenG3753 we were with you, we used to giveG3853 you thisG3778 orderG3853: 32ifG1487 anyoneG5100 is not willingG2309 to workG2038, then he is not to eatG2068, eitherG3366. 11For we hearG191 that someG5100 amongG1722 you are 33leadingG4043 an undisciplinedG814 lifeG4043, doingG2038 noG3367 workG2038 atG3367 allG3367, but actingG4020 likeG4020 34busybodiesG4020. 12NowG1161 we commandG3853 and 35exhortG3870 suchG5108 personsG5108 in the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 to 36workG2038 37peacefullyG2271 and eatG2068 their ownG1438 breadG740. 13But as for you, 38brothersG80 and sisters, 39do not growG1457 wearyG1457 of doingG2569 goodG2569.

14IfG1487 anyoneG5100 does not obeyG5219 our 40instructionG3056 4142in thisG3588 letterG1992, takeG4593 specialG4593 noteG4593 of that personG3778 so as 43not to associateG4874 with him, soG2443 thatG2443 he will be 44putG1788 toG1788 shameG1788. 15And yet 45do not regardG2233 that person as an enemyG2190, but 4647admonishG3560 that one as a 48brotherG80 or sister.

16NowG1161 49may the LordG2962 of peaceG1515 50HimselfG846 continuallyG1223G3956 grantG1325 you peaceG1515 in everyG3956 51circumstanceG5158. 52The LordG2962 be with you allG3956!

1753I, PaulG3972, write thisG3588 greetingG783 54with my ownG1699 handG5495, and thisG3739 is a distinguishingG4592 markG4592 in everyG3956 letterG1992; thisG3779 isG3779 theG3779 wayG3779 I writeG1125. 1855The graceG5485 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be with you allG3956.
