2 Thessalonians 3

1 Furthermore, brethren, pray for vs, that the worde of the Lord may haue free passage and be glorified, euen as it is with you,

το λοιπον προσευχεσθε αδελφοι περι ημων ινα ο λογος του κυριου τρεχη και δοξαζηται καθως και προς υμας

2 And that we may be deliuered from vnreasonable and euill men: for all men haue not fayth.

και ινα ρυσθωμεν απο των ατοπων και πονηρων ανθρωπων ου γαρ παντων η πιστις

3 But the Lord is faithfull, which wil stablish you, and keepe you from euill.

πιστος δε εστιν ο κυριος ος στηριξει υμας και φυλαξει απο του πονηρου

4 And we are perswaded of you through the Lord, that ye both doe, and will doe the things which we warne you of.

πεποιθαμεν δε εν κυριω εφ υμας οτι α παραγγελλομεν υμιν και ποιειτε και ποιησετε

5 And the Lord guide your hearts to the loue of God, and the waiting for of Christ.

ο δε κυριος κατευθυναι υμων τας καρδιας εις την αγαπην του θεου και εις την υπομονην του χριστου

6 We warne you, brethren, in the Name of our Lord Iesus Christ, that ye withdrawe your selues from euery brother that walketh inordinately, and not after the instruction, which hee receiued of vs.

παραγγελλομεν δε υμιν αδελφοι εν ονοματι του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου στελλεσθαι υμας απο παντος αδελφου ατακτως περιπατουντος και μη κατα την παραδοσιν ην παρελαβον παρ ημων

7 For ye your selues know, how ye ought to follow vs: for we behaued not our selues inordinately among you,

αυτοι γαρ οιδατε πως δει μιμεισθαι ημας οτι ουκ ητακτησαμεν εν υμιν

8 Neither tooke we bread of any man for nought: but we wrought with labour and trauaile night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you.

ουδε δωρεαν αρτον εφαγομεν παρα τινος αλλ εν κοπω και μοχθω νυκτα και ημεραν εργαζομενοι προς το μη επιβαρησαι τινα υμων

9 Not because we haue not authoritie, but that we might make our selues an ensample vnto you to follow vs.

ουχ οτι ουκ εχομεν εξουσιαν αλλ ινα εαυτους τυπον δωμεν υμιν εις το μιμεισθαι ημας

10 For euen when we were with you, this we warned you of, that if there were any, which would not worke, that he should not eate.

και γαρ οτε ημεν προς υμας τουτο παρηγγελλομεν υμιν οτι ει τις ου θελει εργαζεσθαι μηδε εσθιετω

11 For we heare, that there are some which walke among you inordinately, and worke not at all, but are busie bodies.

ακουομεν γαρ τινας περιπατουντας εν υμιν ατακτως μηδεν εργαζομενους αλλα περιεργαζομενους

12 Therefore them that are such, we warne and exhort by our Lord Iesus Christ, that they worke with quietnes, and eate their owne bread.

τοις δε τοιουτοις παραγγελλομεν και παρακαλουμεν δια του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ινα μετα ησυχιας εργαζομενοι τον εαυτων αρτον εσθιωσιν

13 And ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

υμεις δε αδελφοι μη εκκακησητε καλοποιουντες

14 If any man obey not this our saying in this letter, note him, and haue no company with him, that he may be ashamed:

ει δε τις ουχ υπακουει τω λογω ημων δια της επιστολης τουτον σημειουσθε και μη συναναμιγνυσθε αυτω ινα εντραπη

15 Yet count him not as an enemie, but admonish him as a brother.

και μη ως εχθρον ηγεισθε αλλα νουθετειτε ως αδελφον

16 Now the Lord himselfe of peace giue you peace alwayes by all meanes. The Lord be with you all.

αυτος δε ο κυριος της ειρηνης δωη υμιν την ειρηνην δια παντος εν παντι τροπω ο κυριος μετα παντων υμων

17 The salutation of me Paul, with mine owne hand, which is ye token in euery Epistle: so I write,

ο ασπασμος τη εμη χειρι παυλου ο εστιν σημειον εν παση επιστολη ουτως γραφω

18 The grace of our Lord Iesus Christ be with you all, Amen. ‘The second Epistle to the Thessalonians, written from Athens.’

η χαρις του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου μετα παντων υμων αμην
