1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which
is in the FATHER and in : Grace be unto you,
and peace, from our FATHER, and .
2 We give thanks to always for you all, making mention of you in our
prayers;
3 Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and
patience of hope in our LORD YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, in the sight of ELOHIM and
our FATHER;
4 Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of ELOHIM.
5 For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the
RUACH ha KODESH, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were
among you for your sake.
6 And ye became followers of us, and of YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, having received
the word in much affliction, with joy of the RUACH ha KODESH:
7 So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
8 For from you sounded out the word of ELOHIM not only in Macedonia and Achaia,
but also in every place your faith to ELOHIM-ward is spread abroad; so that we
need not to speak any thing.
9 For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and
how ye turned to ELOHIM from idols to serve the living and true ELOHIM;
10 And to wait for HIS SON from heaven, whom HE raised from the dead, evenYAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
~ 1 Thessalonians 2 ~
1 For yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in
vain:
2 But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as
ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our ELOHIM to speak unto you the gospel of
ELOHIM with much contention.
3 For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
4 But as we were allowed of ELOHIM to be put in trust with the gospel, even so
we speak; not as pleasing men, but ELOHIM, which trieth our hearts.
5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of
covetousness; ELOHIMis witness:
6 Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might
have been burdensome, as the apostles of the MESSIAH.
7 But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto
you, not the gospel of ELOHIM only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear
unto us.
9 For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and
day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you
the gospel of ELOHIM.
10 Ye are witnesses, and ELOHIMalso, how holily and justly and unblameably
we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
11 As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a
father doth his children,
12 That ye would walk worthy of ELOHIM, who hath called you unto HIS kingdom and
glory.
13 For this cause also thank we YAHUVEH without ceasing, because, when ye
received the word of YAHUVEH which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the
word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of YAHUVEH, which effectually
worketh also in you that believe.
14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the churches of YAHUVEH which in Judaea
are in YAHUSHUAha MASHIACH: for ye also have suffered like things of your own
countrymen, even as they have of the Jews:
15 Who both killed YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, and their own prophets, and have
persecuted us; and they please not ELOHIM, and are contrary to all men:
16 Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they might be saved, to fill up
their sins alway: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
17 But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in
heart, endeavoured the more abundantly to see your face with great desire.
18 Wherefore we would have come unto you, even I Paul, once and again; but Satan
hindered us.
19 For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in
the presence of our LORD YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH at HIS coming?
20 For ye are our glory and joy.
~ 1 Thessalonians 3 ~
1 Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it good to be left at
Athens alone;
2 And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of ELOHIM, and our
fellowlabourer in the gospel of the MESSIAH, to establish you, and to comfort
you concerning your faith:
3 That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that we
are appointed thereunto.
4 For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer
tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.
5 For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith,
lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.
6 But now when Timotheus came from you unto us, and brought us good tidings of
your faith and charity, and that ye have good remembrance of us always, desiring
greatly to see us, as we also to see you:
7 Therefore, brethren, we were comforted over you in all our affliction and
distress by your faith:
8 For now we live, if ye stand fast in YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH.
9 For what thanks can we render to ELOHIM again for you, for all the joy
wherewith we joy for your sakes before our ELOHIM;
10 Night and day praying exceedingly that we might see your face, and might
perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
11 Now ELOHIM himself and our FATHER, and our YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, direct our
way unto you.
12 And YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH make you to increase and abound in love one toward
another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:
13 To the end HE may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before ELOHIM,
even our FATHER, at the coming of our LORD YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH with all HIS
saints.
~ 1 Thessalonians 4 ~
1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by YAHUSHUA HA
MASHIACH, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please
ELOHIM, so ye would abound more and more.
2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH.
3 For this is the will of ELOHIM, even your sanctification, that ye should
abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification
and honour;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not ELOHIM:
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that
YAHUVEHis the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and
testified.
7 For YAHUVEH hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but YAHUVEH, who hath also
given unto us HISRUACH ha KODESH.
9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye
yourselves are taught of ELOHIM to love one another.
10 And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but
we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with
your own hands, as we commanded you;
12 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may
have lack of nothing.
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are
asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that YAHUSHUA died and rose again, even so them also which
sleep in YAHUSHUA will ELOHIM bring with HIM.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of YAHUVEH, that we which are alive
and remain unto the coming of YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH shall not prevent them
which are asleep.
16 For YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACHHIMSELF shall descend from heaven with a shout, with
the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of YAHUVEH: and the dead in the
MESSIAH shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in
the clouds, to meet YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH in the air: and so shall we ever be
with YAHUSHUA.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
~ 1 Thessalonians 5 ~
1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto
you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of YAHUVEH so cometh as a thief in
the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon
them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a
thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of
the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken
in the night.
8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith
and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
9 For YAHUVEH hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our
YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH,
10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with
HIM.
11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye
do.
12 And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are
over you in YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH, and admonish you;
13 And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at
peace among yourselves.
14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the
feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which
is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
16 Rejoice evermore.
17 Pray without ceasing.
18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of ELOHIM in YAHUSHUA ha
MASHIACH concerning you.
19 Quench not the SPIRIT.
20 Despise not prophesyings.
21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.
23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole
spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our LORD
YAHUSHUAha MASHIACH.
24 Faithful isHE that calleth you, who also will do it.
25 Brethren, pray for us.
26 Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.
27 I charge you by YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACH that this epistle be read unto all the
holy brethren.
28 The grace of our LORD YAHUSHUAHA MASHIACHbe with you. Amen.
