1 Thessalonians 4

1 Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Yeshua, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

Dadꞌi taꞌo ia, toronoo nggare! Hai kokoe nggi, fo misodꞌa tao mimihoꞌo Lamatualain ralan, onaꞌ hai minori nggiꞌ a. Memaꞌ misodꞌa tungga basa naa ra ena, te huu hita ia ra dadꞌi Lamatuaꞌ Yesus bobꞌonggin ena, de hai moꞌe fo ama bꞌau ue-tao maꞌadereꞌ seluꞌ fai.

2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Yeshua.

Basa hei bubꞌuluꞌ ena saa fo hai minori neu hei naa, mendiꞌ Lamatuaꞌ Yesus koasan.

3 For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

Lamatualain hihiin taꞌo ia: Misodꞌa meumareꞌ! Afiꞌ misodꞌa manggenggeoꞌ. Naeni, afiꞌ hohongge mo atahori sao nara, sao tou, do, sao inaꞌ.

4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honour,

Hei musi tao mataꞌ neu ao mara, fo misodꞌa meumareꞌ, sambe atahori fee hadꞌat neu nggi.

5 not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God,

Afiꞌ misodꞌa tungga hihii ao-sisi mara, onaꞌ atahori nda mana rahine Lamatualain sa.

6 that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.

Afiꞌ sangga hahambuꞌ, ma hohongge mo atahori nemehereꞌ sa neu Lamatuaꞌ. Te Lamatuaꞌ naa, Malangga mana bala-bꞌae basa deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ naa ra. Hai mifadꞌe nesefafali basa ia ra neu nggi ena, ma fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ eniꞌ a dalahulun ena.

7 For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.

Lamatualain noꞌe nala hita fo dadꞌi atahorin ena. Eni hihiin, hita musi tasodꞌa meumareꞌ, nda tasodꞌa manggenggeoꞌ onaꞌ mana hohonggeꞌ ra sa. Nda taꞌo naa sa.

8 Therefore he who rejects this doesn’t reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.

Huu naa, atahori nda mana tungga nenoriꞌ ia sa, ana nda tola akaꞌ a hai sa, te ana o tola Lamatualain, mana fee Dula-dale Meumaren neu nggiꞌ a.

9 But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,

Au nda parlu suraꞌ seluꞌ fee hei dala susueꞌ sa, huu Lamatualain nanori ena oi, hei esa musi sue esa.

10 for indeed you do it towards all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;

Hai o rena hei sue basa toronooꞌ mana sia profinsi Makedonia ra. Te toronooꞌ, re! Ia naa hai moꞌe fo ama sue milenaꞌ se fai.

11 and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you,

Malolole fo ama misodꞌa no mole-dame, afiꞌ tungga atahori feaꞌ ra dalan, te esa-esaꞌ tao mataꞌ neu dalan. Ama musi tao ues fo sangga nanaa-nininuꞌ ao mara, afiꞌ mimihena atahori feaꞌ ra. Hai fee nesenenedꞌaꞌ ia neu nggi eniꞌ a dalahulun.

12 that you may walk properly towards those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.

Mete ma misodꞌa taꞌo naa, na nda tao mimibera atahori laen sa. Dei fo atahori nda mana ramahere neu Kristus sa mete rita masodꞌa mara taꞌo naa, na ara rae, “We! Memaꞌ atahori mana tungga Lamatuaꞌ Yesus naa, manggate seli, o!”

13 But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

Naa! Ia na, basa toronooꞌ re, au ae ufadꞌe dalaꞌ esa, fo mihine tebꞌe-tebꞌe soꞌal atahori mates ra. Hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, atahori mates ra dei fo rasodꞌa baliꞌ. Dadꞌi mete ma hambu Lamatuaꞌ atahorin ruma mate, na, afiꞌ miꞌisususaꞌ ao mara, onaꞌ atahori feaꞌ nda mana rahine dalaꞌ naa sa.

14 For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Yeshua.

Te hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, Yesus mate basa ma Lamatualain o tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ E. Naa! No taꞌo naa, Lamatualain o tao nasodꞌa baliꞌ basa atahori mates mana ramahereꞌ ra, ma naꞌabꞌue nala basa se ro Lamatuaꞌ Yesus.

15 For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.

Te mete ma Lamatuaꞌ Yesus heoꞌ baliꞌ, Ana onda mia sorga nisiꞌ raefafoꞌ, dei fo hambu hara parenda mahereꞌ. Ma ana dedenuꞌ sia sorga ra malanggan fee parendaꞌ fuu maꞌoa. Ma Lamatuaꞌ atahori mana mate nara rasodꞌa baliꞌ. Dei fo sira ro hita feꞌe masodꞌa ia ra, nenesoꞌuꞌ leleeꞌ ata teu fo soru Lamatuaꞌ Yesus neneman. Basa naa, basa hita tasodꞌa takandoo to E. Hei rena malolole, te saa fo hai mifadꞌeꞌ ia, Lamatuaꞌ mana nafadꞌe aon.

16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s shofar. The dead in Messiah will rise first,

17 then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.

De ama musi pake nenoriꞌ ia, fo tao manggatee esa no esa rala nara.
