Finally <G3063>, brethren <G0080>, pray <G4336> <G5737> for <G4012> us <G2257>, that <G2443> the word <G3056> of the Lord <G2962> may have [free] course <G5143> <G5725>, and <G2532> be glorified <G1392> <G5747>, even <G2532> as <G2531> [it is] with <G4314> you <G5209>:
2
And <G2532> that <G2443> we may be delivered <G4506> <G5686> from <G0575> unreasonable <G0824> and <G2532> wicked <G4190> men <G0444>: for <G1063> all <G3956> [men] have not <G3756> faith <G4102>.
3
But <G1161> the Lord <G2962> is <G2076> <G5748> faithful <G4103>, who <G3739> shall stablish <G4741> <G5692> you <G5209>, and <G2532> keep <G5442> <G5692> [you] from <G0575> evil <G4190>.
4
And <G1161> we have confidence <G3982> <G5754> in <G1722> the Lord <G2962> touching <G1909> you <G5209>, that <G3754> ye both <G2532> do <G4160> <G5719> and <G2532> will do <G4160> <G5692> the things which <G3739> we command <G3853> <G5719> you <G5213>.
5
And <G1161> the Lord <G2962> direct <G2720> <G5659> your <G5216> hearts <G2588> into <G1519> the love <G0026> of God <G2316>, and <G2532> into <G1519> the patient waiting <G5281> for Christ <G5547>.
6
Now <G1161> we command <G3853> <G5719> you <G5213>, brethren <G0080>, in <G1722> the name <G3686> of our <G2257> Lord <G2962> Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547>, that ye withdraw <G4724> <G5733> yourselves <G5209> from <G0575> every <G3956> brother <G0080> that walketh <G4043> <G5723> disorderly <G0814>, and <G2532> not <G3361> after <G2596> the tradition <G3862> which <G3739> he received <G3880> <G5627> of <G3844> us <G2257>.
7
For <G1063> yourselves <G0846> know <G1492> <G5758> how <G4459> ye ought <G1163> <G5748> to follow <G3401> <G5738> us <G2248>: for <G3754> we behaved <G0812> <G0000> not <G3756> ourselves disorderly <G0812> <G5656> among <G1722> you <G5213>;
8
Neither <G3761> did we eat <G5315> <G5627> any man's <G3844> <G5100> bread <G0740> for nought <G1432>; but <G0235> wrought <G2038> <G5740> with <G1722> labour <G2873> and <G2532> travail <G3449> night <G3571> and <G2532> day <G2250>, that <G4314> we might <G1912> <G0000> not <G3361> be chargeable <G1912> <G5658> to any <G5100> of you <G5216>:
9
Not <G3756> because <G3754> we have <G2192> <G5719> not <G3756> power <G1849>, but <G0235> to <G2443> make <G1325> <G5632> ourselves <G1438> an ensample <G5179> unto you <G5213> to <G1519> follow <G3401> <G5738> us <G2248>.
10
For <G1063> even <G2532> when <G3753> we were <G2258> <G5713> with <G4314> you <G5209>, this <G5124> we commanded <G3853> <G5707> you <G5213>, that <G3754> if any <G1536> would <G2309> <G5719> not <G3756> work <G2038> <G5738>, neither <G3366> should he eat <G2068> <G5720>.
11
For <G1063> we hear <G0191> <G5719> that there are some <G5100> which walk <G4043> <G5723> among <G1722> you <G5213> disorderly <G0814>, working <G2038> <G5740> not at all <G3367>, but <G0235> are busybodies <G4020> <G5740>.
12
Now <G1161> them that are such <G5108> we command <G3853> <G5719> and <G2532> exhort <G3870> <G5719> by <G1223> our <G2257> Lord <G2962> Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547>, that <G2443> with <G3326> quietness <G2271> they work <G2038> <G5740>, and eat <G2068> <G5725> their own <G1438> bread <G0740>.
13
But <G1161> ye <G5210>, brethren <G0080>, be <G1573> <G0000> not <G3361> weary <G1573> <G5661> in well doing <G2569> <G5723>.
14
And <G1161> if any man <G1536> obey <G5219> <G5719> not <G3756> our <G2257> word <G3056> by <G1223> this epistle <G1992>, note <G4593> <G5732> that <G5126> man, and <G2532> have <G4874> <G0000> no <G3361> company with <G4874> <G5732> him <G0846>, that <G2443> he may be ashamed <G1788> <G5652>.
15
Yet <G2532> count <G2233> <G5737> [him] not <G3361> as <G5613> an enemy <G2190>, but <G0235> admonish <G3560> <G5720> [him] as <G5613> a brother <G0080>.
16
Now <G1161> the Lord <G2962> of peace <G1515> himself <G0846> give <G1325> <G5630> you <G5213> peace <G1515> always <G1223> <G3956> by <G1722> all <G3956> means <G5158>. The Lord <G2962> [be] with <G3326> you <G5216> all <G3956>.
17
The salutation <G0783> of Paul <G3972> with mine own <G1699> hand <G5495>, which <G3739> is <G2076> <G5748> the token <G4592> in <G1722> every <G3956> epistle <G1992>: so <G3779> I write <G1125> <G5719>.
18
The grace <G5485> of our <G2257> Lord <G2962> Jesus <G2424> Christ <G5547> [be] with <G3326> you <G5216> all <G3956>. Amen <G0281>. <[The second <G1208> [epistle] to <G4314> the Thessalonians <G2331> was written <G1125> <G5648> from <G0575> Athens <G0116>>
