2 Thessalonians
Chapter 3
3:1 Furthermore, brethren, pray concerning us, that* the word of the Lord may run onward and may be glorified, just-as it is also with you*;
3:2 and that* we may be rescued from improper and evil men; for* the faith is not in all.
3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you* and guard you* from the evil one.
3:4 Now we have confidence in the Lord with regard to you*, that you* are both doing and will practice the things which we command you*.
3:5 Now may the Lord steer your* hearts into the love* of God and into the endurance of Christ.
3:6 Now brethren, we are commanding you* in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother who is walking disorderly and not according to the tradition which they received from us.
3:7 For* you * yourselves know how you* ought to imitate us. Because we did not act-disorderly among you*;
3:8 neither did we eat bread freely from anyone's hand, but in labor and hardship, working night and day, *that* we might not burden anyone of you*;
3:9 not because we did not have the authority, but that* we might give ourselves as an example to you*, *that* you* might imitate us.
3:10 For* even when we were with you*, this we commanded you*, If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.
3:11 For* we hear of some who are walking disorderly among you*, working at nothing, but are busybodies.
3:12 Now we are commanding and are encouraging through our Lord Jesus Christ, those who are such that* they work with quietness and should eat their own bread.
3:13 But you* brethren, do not be depressed in doing good.
3:14 And if anyone is not obeying* our word through this letter, mark that man and do not socialize with him, in order that he may be embarrassed.
3:15 And yet do not deem him as an enemy, but admonish him like a brother.
3:16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you* peace always and in every manner. The Lord be with you* all.
3:17 The greeting from me, Paul, I thus am writing with my own hand, which is the sign in every letter.
3:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you* all. Amen.
