2 Thessalonians 3
1 As for the other matters, [our] fellow believers, pray for us that more and more [people will] hear [PRS] our message [about our] Lord [Jesus]. Pray that they will believe this message, as you [have done].
Závěrem, bratři, prosíme o vaše přímluvné modlitby, aby se Boží poselství rychle šířilo a všude vítězilo jako u vás
2 Pray also for us that we will be rescued {that God will rescue us} from those very perverse/evil people [here] who [cause us to suffer. Pray like that] because [they and many others] refuse to believe [LIT] [this message].
a abychom byli ušetřeni úkladů zvrácených a zlých lidí. Vždyť ne všichni stojí věrně na Boží straně,
3 [Remember that our] Lord [Jesus] is trustworthy! [So we are sure that] he will cause you to continue to be steadfast. [We are also sure that] he will protect you from [Satan], the evil one (OR, from evil).
ale Pán je věrný. On vás posilní a ochrání od zlého.
4 [Because of your close relationship with our] Lord [Jesus], we are confident that you are obeying what we have commanded you, and we are confident that you will obey what we are commanding [you in this letter].
My patříme Pánu stejně jako vy, a proto spoléháme, že se našimi slovy řídíte a budete řídit i dál.
5 [We pray that our] Lord [Jesus] would enable you to continue [knowing] that God loves you. [We pray] also that Christ will cause you to continue [being] steadfast (OR, being steadfast as he [was steadfast]).
Přejeme si, aby vaše srdce bylo naplněno Boží láskou a Kristovou trpělivostí.
6 [Our] fellow believers, we command you, with the authority [MTY] that our Lord Jesus Christ [has given to us], that you stop associating with every fellow believer who is lazy and refuses to work. That is, you must stay away from those who are not [conducting their lives] in the manner that we taught you.
Dále přikazujeme jménem Ježíše Krista, abyste se stranili všech, kteří si neberou k srdci naše naučení a ubíjejí čas zahálkou.
7 [We tell you this] because you yourselves know that you should [behave] like we [behaved]. We (did not just sit [around] without working/were never lazy) [while we were living] among you.
Dali jsme vám přece sami příklad, jak máte žít; nikdy jste nás neviděli zahálet
8 Specifically, we did not eat anyone’s food if we did not pay [that person] for it. Instead, we worked very hard ([to support ourselves/to earn the money to buy what we needed]). We worked hard [DOU] during the day and during the night, in order that we would not have to depend on any of you [to supply what we needed].
a přiživovat se u jiných. – Ve dne v noci jsme si tvrdou prací vydělávali na chléb, abychom nikoho nevyjídali.
9 We have always had the right [to depend on you for money, but instead we worked hard in order to make ourselves] examples for you, in order that you should behave like we behave.
Ne, že bychom neměli právo žádat od vás zaopatření, ale chtěli jsme vám dát příklad k napodobování.
10 Remember that when we were [there] with you, we kept commanding you that if any [fellow believer] refuses to work, [you should not give] him food to eat.
Taky jsme vám vždycky zdůrazňovali: Kdo nechce pracovat, ať nejí!
11 [We are commanding the same thing] again now, because someone has told us that some of you are lazy and not working at all, just interfering [with what other people are doing]!
A přece teď slyšíme, že jsou mezi vámi darmojedi, kterým práce nevoní.
12 We command those fellow believers who are not working, and urge [them] by the authority [MTY] of our Lord Jesus Christ, that they settle down and (support themselves by working/work to earn money to buy what they need).
Takové vyzýváme a Kristovým jménem jim nařizujeme, aby nezaháleli a na svůj chléb si řádně vydělávali.
13 Fellow believers! Do not ever get tired of doing what is right!
Vám, však bratři, připomínáme: v konání dobra nepolevujte.
14 If any [fellow believer refuses to work] and does not obey what I have written in this letter, ([publicly] identify that person/tell the congregation what that person is doing). Then do not associate with him, in order that he may become ashamed.
Kdyby se někdo zdráhal podřídit tomu, co píšeme, dejte mu pocítit, že mezi vás nepatří; snad se pak zastydí.
15 Do not think of him as though he was [your] enemy; instead, warn him as [you would warn your other] fellow believers.
Ale nejednejte s ním jako s nepřítelem; spíš ho varujte jako bratra, na němž vám záleží.
16 [I pray that our] Lord [Jesus] himself, who [gives inner] peace [to his people], will give [inner] peace to you always (and in every situation/whatever happens). 2 Thessalonians 3:16b-18 I [pray that our] Lord [Jesus will continue to] help you all.
Ať vám Pán pokoje dá svůj pokoj vždycky a všude a zůstává s vámi.
17 Now, having taken the pen from my scribe, I, Paul, am sending this greeting to you as I write this myself [SYN]. I do this in all my letters in order that you may know that it is truly I who have sent this letter. This is how I always end my letters.
Tento pozdrav připisuji ve všech dopisech vlastní rukou na důkaz, že jsou skutečně ode mne.
18 I pray that our Lord Jesus Christ will continue to act kindly to you all.
Milost našeho Pána, Ježíše Krista, ať vás provází. Váš Pavel
