Paul, Silas, and Timothy: To the Church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. May grace and peace be granted to you.

2 Esquerrac emaiten drautzagu Iaincoari bethiere çueçaz gucióz, memorio çueçaz eguiten dugula gure othoitzetan:

We continually give thanks to God because of you all, while we make mention of you in our prayers.

3 Paussu gabe orhoitzen garelaric çuen fedearen verthuteaz, eta çuen charitatearen trabailluaz, eta çuen sperançaren patientiáz Iesus Christ gure Iaunean, gure Iainco eta Aitaren aitzinean:

For we never fail to remember your works of faith and labours of love and your persistent and unwavering hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father;

4 Daquigularic, anaye maiteác, çuec Iaincoaz elegituac çaretela:

knowing as we do, brethren, that you are beloved by God and that He has chosen you.

5 Ecen gure Euangelioa consistitu içan da çuec baithan ez hitzean solament, baina verthutean-ere, eta Spiritu sainduan, eta segurança handitan, daquiçuen beçala nolaco içan garen çuen artean çuengatic.

The Good News that we brought you did not come to you in words only, but also with power and with the Holy Spirit and with much certainty, for you know the sort of men we became among you, as examples for your sakes.

6 Çuec-ere gure imitaçale eguin içan çarete eta Iaunaren, recebituric hitza anhitz tribulationerequin, Spiritu sainduaren bozcariorequin:

And you followed the pattern set you by us and by the Master, after you had received the Message amid severe persecution, and yet with the joy which the Holy Spirit gives,

7 Hala non Macedonian eta Achaian sinhesten duten gucién exemplu içan baitzarete.

so that you became a pattern to all the believers throughout Macedonia and Greece.

8 Ecen çuetaric soinu eguin vkan du Iaincoaren hitzac, ez solament Macedonian eta Achaian, baina leku orotan-ere çuen fede Iaincoa baithangoa diuulgatu içan da, hala non ezpaitugu mengoa deus erran deçagun:

For it was not only from you that the Master's Message sounded forth throughout Macedonia and Greece; but everywhere your faith in God has become known, so that it is unnecessary for us to say anything about it.

9 Ecen beréc guçaz contatzen duté cer sartzea vkan dugun çuetara, eta nola conuertitu içan çareten Iaincoagana idoletaric, cerbitza cineçatençát Iainco vicia eta eguiazcoa:

For when others speak of us they report the reception we had from you, and how you turned from your idols to God, to be bondservants of the true and ever-living God,

10 Eta haren Seme Iesusen beguira cinaudetençát ceruètaric, cein resuscitatu vkan baitu hiletaric, cein baita, gu ethorteco den hiratic deliuratzen gaituena.

and to await the return from Heaven of His Son, whom He raised from among the dead--even Jesus, our Deliverer from God's coming anger.
