1THESS 5:1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that ye should be written to,
1THESS 5:2 for ye know perfectly well yourselves, that the day of [the] Lord so comes as a thief by night.
1THESS 5:3 When they may say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon her that is with child; and they shall in no wise escape.
1THESS 5:4 But *ye*, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day should overtake you as a thief:
1THESS 5:5 for all *ye* are sons of light and sons of day; we are not of night nor of darkness.
1THESS 5:6 So then do not let us sleep as the rest do, but let us watch and be sober;
1THESS 5:7 for they that sleep sleep by night, and they that drink drink by night;
1THESS 5:8 but *we* being of [the] day, let us be sober, putting on [the] breastplate of faith and love, and as helmet [the] hope of salvation;
1THESS 5:9 because God has not set us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
1THESS 5:10 who has died for us, that whether we may be watching or sleep, we may live together with him.
1THESS 5:11 Wherefore encourage one another, and build up each one the other, even as also ye do.
1THESS 5:12 But we beg you, brethren, to know those who labour among you, and take the lead among you in [the] Lord, and admonish you,
1THESS 5:13 and to regard them exceedingly in love on account of their work. Be in peace among yourselves.
1THESS 5:14 But we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, comfort the faint-hearted, sustain the weak, be patient towards all.
1THESS 5:15 See that no one render to any evil for evil, but pursue always what is good towards one another and towards all;
1THESS 5:16 rejoice always;
1THESS 5:17 pray unceasingly;
1THESS 5:18 in everything give thanks, for this is [the] will of God in Christ Jesus towards you;
1THESS 5:19 quench not the Spirit;
1THESS 5:20 do not lightly esteem prophecies;
1THESS 5:21 but prove all things, hold fast the right;
1THESS 5:22 hold aloof from every form of wickedness.
1THESS 5:23 Now the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly: and your whole spirit, and soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1THESS 5:24 He [is] faithful who calls you, who will also perform [it].
1THESS 5:25 Brethren, pray for us.
1THESS 5:26 Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss.
1THESS 5:27 I adjure you by the Lord that the letter be read to all the [holy] brethren.
1THESS 5:28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.
