1:1
This
letter
is
from
Paul
,
Silas
,
*
and
Timothy
.
We
are
writing
to
the
church
in
Thessalonica
,
to
you
who
belong
to
God
our
Father
and
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ
.
2
May
God
our
Father
*
and
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ
give
you
grace
and
peace
.
3
Dear
brothers
and
sisters
,
*
we
can’t
help
but
thank
God
for
you
,
because
your
faith
is
flourishing
and
your
love
for
one
another
is
growing
.
4
We
proudly
tell
God’s
other
churches
about
your
endurance
and
faithfulness
in
all
the
persecutions
and
hardships
you
are
suffering
.
5
And
God
will
use
this
persecution
to
show
his
justice
and
to
make
you
worthy
of
his
Kingdom
,
for
which
you
are
suffering
.
6
In
his
justice
he
will
pay
back
those
who
persecute
you
.
7
And
God
will
provide
rest
for
you
who
are
being
persecuted
and
also
for
us
when
the
Lord
Jesus
appears
from
heaven
.
He
will
come
with
his
mighty
angels
,
8
in
flaming
fire
,
bringing
judgment
on
those
who
don’t
know
God
and
on
those
who
refuse
to
obey
the
Good
News
of
our
Lord
Jesus
.
9
They
will
be
punished
with
eternal
destruction
,
forever
separated
from
the
Lord
and
from
his
glorious
power
.
10
When
he
comes
on
that
day
,
he
will
receive
glory
from
his
holy
people
—
praise
from
all
who
believe
.
And
this
includes
you
,
for
you
believed
what
we
told
you
about
him
.
11
So
we
keep
on
praying
for
you
,
asking
our
God
to
enable
you
to
live
a
life
worthy
of
his
call
.
May
he
give
you
the
power
to
accomplish
all
the
good
things
your
faith
prompts
you
to
do
.
12
Then
the
name
of
our
Lord
Jesus
will
be
honored
because
of
the
way
you
live
,
and
you
will
be
honored
along
with
him
.
This
is
all
made
possible
because
of
the
grace
of
our
God
and
Lord
,
Jesus
Christ
.
