1 Tesalonikarrei 4

1 Gaineracoaz bada anayeác, othoizten çaituztegu, eta requeritzen Iesus Iaunaz, gureganic recebitu vkan duçuen beçala, nola ebili behar çareten eta Iaincoaren gogaraco içan, guerotic guerora auançago çaitezten.

FINALLY, brethren, we beseech you therefore, and conjure you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk, and please God, so ye would abound more and more.

2 Ecen badaquiçue cer manamenduac eman drauzquiçuegun Iesus Iaunaren partez.

For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

3 Ecen haur da Iaincoaren vorondatea, çuen sanctificationea, paillardiçataric beguira çaitezten:

For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that you should abstain from whoredom;

4 Eta iaquin deçan çuetaric batbederac bere vnciaren posseditzen sanctificationerequin eta ohorerequin:

that every one of you may know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour,

5 Ez guthiciataco affectionerequin, Gentil Iaincoa eçagutzen eztutenen ançora.

not in the vile passion of lewdness, as the Gentiles which know not God;

6 Nehorc ezteçala aurizqui edo engana bere anayea eceinere eguitecotan: ecen Iauna gauça hauen gucién mendecaçale da, nola lehen-ere erran eta testificatu baitrauçuegu.

that no man transgress against, or act dishonestly to his brother in this matter because the Lord is the avenger of all such things, as we have told you before, and testified.

7 Ecen ezgaitu deithu vkan Iaincoac cithalqueriatara, baina sanctificationetara.

For God hath not called us unto impurity, but unto holiness.

8 Bada gauça hauc arbuyatzen dituenac, eztu guiçon-bat arbuyatzen, baina Iaincoa, ceinec bere Spiritu saindua gutan eçarri-ere vkan baitu.

Therefore he that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his Holy Spirit.

9 Anayetassunezco charitateaz den becembatean, eztuçue mengoaric scriba dieçaçuedan ecen ceuroc Iaincoaz iracatsiac çarete, elkar onhets deçaçuen.

Now concerning brotherly love, I have no need to write unto you: for ye yourselves are divinely taught to love one another.

10 Ecen eguiten-ere baduçue haur Maeedonia gucian diraden anaye orotará: baina othoizten çaituztegu, anayeác, guerotic guerora auançago çaitezten,

And indeed ye practise it towards all the brethren that are throughout Macedonia: but we conjure you, brethren, to abound more and more;

11 Eta pena eçar deçaçuen baquez içatera, eta çuen eguiteco proprién eguitera, eta çuen escu propriéz languitera, manatu çaituztegun beçala:

and that you make it your study to live peaceably, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we have enjoined you;

12 Campotic diradenetara honestqui perporta çaiteztençát, eta deusen beharric eztuçuençát.

that ye walk becomingly towards those without, and need no assistance from any person.

13 Eta eztut nahi çuec ignorant çareten, anayeác, lo daunçanéz den becembatean, contrista etzaiteztençát, berce goitico sperançaric eztutenac-ere beçala.

Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are fallen asleep, that ye be not afflicted, as the rest of mankind who have no hope.

14 Ecen baldin sinhesten badugu Iesus hil eta resuscitatu dela, halaber Iesus Iaunean lo daunçanac-ere Iaincoac erekarriren ditu harequin.

For if we believe that Jesus died, and rose again, so also those that have fallen asleep for Jesus shall God bring with him.

15 Ecen haur erraiten drauçuegu Iaunaren hitzez ecen gu viciric goitico garatenoc Iaunaren aduenimenduan ezgaitzaiztela aitzinduren lo daunçateney.

For this I say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall not prevent those who are fallen asleep.

16 Ecen Iauna bera exhortationezco oihurequin, eta Archangelu vozequin, eta Iaincoaren trompettarequin iautsiren da cerutic: eta Christean hilac resuscitaturen dirade lehenic:

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17 Guero gu viciric goitico garatenoc, harrapaturen garate hequin batean hodeyetan Iaunaren aitzinera airetan: eta halaz bethi Iaunarequin içanen gara.

then we who are alive, who remain, shall be caught up together with them into the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and so shall we be ever with the Lord.

18 Bada, consola eçaçue elkar hitz hauçaz.

Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
