1 Thessalonians 2
1 it/s/he for to know brother the/this/who entry me the/this/who to/with you that/since: that no empty to be
Brothers and sisters, you yourselves know what our visit meant to you, and that it wasn't wasted!
2 but (and *k) to suffer before and to mistreat as/just as to know in/on/among Philippi to preach boldly in/on/among the/this/who God me to speak to/with you the/this/who gospel the/this/who God in/on/among much fight
You'll recall that after having had much trouble and bad treatment at Philippi, with the help of God we still dared to share God's good news with you, despite the opposition we faced.
3 the/this/who for encouragement me no out from error nor out from impurity (nor *N+kO) in/on/among deceit
For what we speak about isn't deceptive, or worthless, or fraudulent.
4 but as/just as to test by/under: by the/this/who God to trust (in) the/this/who gospel thus(-ly) to speak no as/when a human to please but (the/this/who *k) God the/this/who to test the/this/who heart me
On the contrary, we have God's approval for what we say—he's entrusted us with sharing the good news. We don't set out to please people, but God. He's the one who judges our motives.
5 neither for once/when in/on/among word flattery to be as/just as to know neither in/on/among pretense greediness God witness
As you know, we've never used flattering words. Nor were we covering up some greedy, selfish attitude—as God is our witness!
6 neither to seek out from a human glory neither away from you neither away from another be able in/on/among burden to exist as/when Christ apostle
We weren't trying to win anybody's praise—not from you, nor anyone else. We could have become a “burden” to you as messengers of Christ,
7 but to be (child *N+KO) in/on/among midst you as/when (if *N+kO) nursing mother to care for the/this/who themself child
but instead we acted kindly among you, like a mother caring for her own children.
8 thus(-ly) (yearn for *N+kO) you to delight to share you no alone the/this/who gospel the/this/who God but and the/this/who themself soul: life because beloved me (to be *N+kO)
We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not just God's good news, but also our very own selves, because you had become so dear to us.
9 to remember for brother the/this/who labor me and the/this/who toil night (for *k) and day to work to/with the/this/who not to burden one you to preach toward you the/this/who gospel the/this/who God
Don't you remember, brothers and sisters, all our hard work— working day and night so we wouldn't be a burden to any of you as we shared God's good news with you?
10 you witness and the/this/who God as/when devoutly and rightly and blamelessly you the/this/who to trust (in) to be
You yourselves can testify as to how we acted, and God can too—how we treated you believers with a holy attitude, fairly and blamelessly.
11 just as to know as/when one each you as/when father child themself to plead/comfort you and to encourage and (to testify *N+kO)
You know how we cared for every one of you like a father caring for his own children. We encouraged you, comforted you, and shared with you our experience
12 toward the/this/who (to walk *N+kO) you appropriately the/this/who God the/this/who to call: call you toward the/this/who themself kingdom and glory
so that you could live as God would want you to live—the God who calls you to his own kingdom and glory.
13 (and *no) through/because of this/he/she/it and me to thank the/this/who God unceasingly that/since: that to take word hearing from/with/beside me the/this/who God to receive no word a human but as/just as to be truly word God which and be active in/on/among you the/this/who to trust (in)
Another thing: we're always thanking God that when you heard and accepted the word of God, you didn't treat it as some human words, but what it truly is, the word of God. This is what is at work in those of you who trust in him.
14 you for imitator to be brother the/this/who assembly the/this/who God the/this/who to be in/on/among the/this/who Judea in/on/among Christ Jesus that/since: since (the/this/who *N+KO) (it/s/he *N+kO) to suffer and you by/under: by the/this/who one's own/private fellow countryman as/just as and it/s/he by/under: by the/this/who Jew
The experience you brothers and sisters have had imitates that of God's churches that belong to Christ Jesus in Judaea. Just like your fellow Jewish Christians you suffered as they did at the hands of the Jewish leaders
15 the/this/who and the/this/who lord: God to kill Jesus and the/this/who (one's own/private *K) prophet and (me *NK+O) to persecute and God not to please and all a human hostile
who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and chased us out. They don't please God and they are hostile to everyone,
16 to prevent me the/this/who Gentiles to speak in order that/to to save toward the/this/who to fulfil it/s/he the/this/who sin always to precede/arrive then upon/to/against it/s/he the/this/who wrath (the/this/who God *O) toward goal/tax
trying to prevent us from speaking to the other nations to prevent them from being saved. They're always sinning to the maximum extent, but for them full judgment has arrived!
17 me then brother to orphan away from you to/with time/right time hour face no heart more excessively be eager the/this/who face you to perceive: see in/on/among much desire
Brothers and sisters, since we felt as if we'd experienced a family separation because we hadn't seen you for a while (separated physically though not in spirit), we tried even harder to come and see you again face to face because that's what we wanted to do.
18 (because *N+kO) to will/desire to come/go to/with you I/we on the other hand Paul and once and twice and to impede me the/this/who Satan
We really wanted to come and visit you, and I, Paul, tried again and again—but Satan stopped us.
19 which? for me hope or joy or crown pride or not! and you before the/this/who lord: God me Jesus (Christ *K) in/on/among the/this/who it/s/he coming
For what gives us hope, what makes us happy, what we are really proud of as we stand before our Lord Jesus Christ when he comes back—is having you there too!
20 you for to be the/this/who glory me and the/this/who joy
You are our pride and joy!
