1 Thessalonians Chapter 2 -
1 For you yourselves [G1473 ] [G1063 ] know [G1492 ] , brothers , the [G3588 ] our introduction [G1529 ] [G1473 ] , the [G3588 ] [one] towards [G4314 ] you [G1473 ] , that [G3754 ] not [G3756 ] in vain [G2756 ] it has been [G1096 ] ; 2 but also [G2532 ] having suffered before [G4310 ] , and [G2532 ] having been insulted [G5195 ] , as [G2531 ] you know [G1492 ] , in [G1722 ] Philippi, we were speaking openly [G3955 ] in [G1722 ] the [G3588 ] our God '[G2316 ] [G1473 ] , to speak [G2980 ] to [G4314 ] you [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] good-word-conveyed (good message) '[G2098 ] of the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] with [G1722 ] much [G4183 ] struggle . 3 for the [G3588 ] [G1063 ] our exhortation [G3874 ] [G1473 ] was not [G3756 ] from out of [G1537 ] delusion [G4106 ] , nor [G3761 ] from out of [G1537 ] uncleanness , nor [G3777 ] in [G1722 ] deceit [G1388 ] . 4 But as [G2531 ] having been tried [G1381 ] by [G5259 ] the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] to be trusted '[G4100 ] with the [G3588 ] good-word-conveyed (good message) '[G2098 ] , so [G3779 ] we speak [G2980 ] ; not [G3756 ] as [G5613 ] men pleasing , but [to] the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] , to the [G3588 ] [one] trying [G1381 ] the [G3588 ] our hearts [G2588 ] [G1473 ] . 5 For neither [G3777 ] [G1063 ] at any time [G4218 ] with [G1722 ] word [G3056 ] of flattery [G2850 ] did we exist [G1096 ] , as [G2531 ] you know [G1492 ] , nor [G3777 ] with [G1722 ] an excuse [G4392 ] for a desire for wealth [G4124 ] , (God '[G2316 ] [is] witness) [G3144 ] , 6 nor [G3777 ] seeking [G2212 ] from [G1537 ] men glory [G1391 ] , nor [G3777 ] from you [G1473 ] , nor [G3777 ] from others ; [though] being able [G1410 ] in [G1722 ] weight to be as [G5613 ] Anointed One's [G5547 ] sent ones (apostles) '. 7 But we became [G1096 ] calm [G2261 ] in [G1722 ] your midst [G3319 ] [G1473 ] , as [G5613 ] even a nurse [G5162 ] should comfort [G2282 ] her own the [G3588 ] [G1438 ] children [G5043 ] . 8 Thus [G3779 ] longing over [G2442 ] you [G1473 ] , we thought well [G2106 ] to share [G3330 ] with you [G1473 ] not [G3756 ] only [G3440 ] the [G3588 ] good-word-conveyed (good message) '[G2098 ] of the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] , but also [G2532 ] the [G3588 ] our own [G1438 ] lives [G5590 ] , because [G1360 ] beloved to us [G1473 ] you have become [G1096 ] . 9 For you remember [G3421 ] [G1063 ] , brothers , the [G3588 ] our toil [G2873 ] [G1473 ] and [G2532 ] the [G3588 ] trouble [G3449 ] , for night [G3571 ] [G1063 ] and [G2532 ] day [G2250 ] working [G2038 ] , for [G4314 ] the [G3588 ] not [G3361 ] overburdening [G1912 ] any [G5100 ] of you [G1473 ] , we proclaimed [G2784 ] to [G1519 ] you [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] good-word-conveyed (good message) '[G2098 ] of the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] . 10 You [G1473 ] [are] witnesses [G3144 ] and [G2532 ] the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] , how [G5613 ] sacredly [G3743 ] , and [G2532 ] justly [G1346 ] , and [G2532 ] blamelessly to you [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] [ones] trusting '[G4100 ] we were [G1096 ] . 11 Just as [G2509 ] you know [G1492 ] , how [G5613 ] each one [G1520 ] [G1538 ] of you [G1473 ] as [G5613 ] a father [G3962 ] of his own children [G5043 ] [G1438 ] , [we were] comforting [G3870 ] you [G1473 ] and [G2532 ] consoling [G3888 ] , 12 and [G2532 ] testifying [G3143 ] , for [G1519 ] the [G3588 ] you to walk [G4043 ] [G1473 ] worthily of the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] , of the [G3588 ] [one] calling [G2564 ] you [G1473 ] into [G1519 ] the [G3588 ] his own [G1438 ] government ' and [G2532 ] glory [G1391 ] . 13 On account of [G1223 ] this [G3778 ] also [G2532 ] we [G1473 ] give thanks [G2168 ] [to] the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] continually , that [G3754 ] taking to yourselves [G3880 ] word [G3056 ] of report by [G3844 ] us [G1473 ] of the [G3588 ] God [G2316 ] , you received [G1209 ] not [G3756 ] word [G3056 ] of men , but as [G2531 ] it is truly , word [G3056 ] of God '[G2316 ] , which [G3739 ] also [G2532 ] exerts energy [G1754 ] in [G1722 ] you [G1473 ] -- the [G3588 ] [ones] trusting '[G4100 ] . 14 For you [G1473 ] [G1063 ] imitators [G3402 ] became [G1096 ] , brothers , of the [G3588 ] assemblies [G1577 ] of the [G3588 ] God '[G2316 ] , the [G3588 ] [ones] being in [G1722 ] the [G3588 ] Judea in [G1722 ] Anointed [G5547 ] Jesus [G2424 ] ("I AM Salvation, successor to Moses" [H3091 ] ); that [G3754 ] the same [things] the [G3588 ] [G1473 ] suffered [G3958 ] also [G2532 ] you [G1473 ] by [G5259 ] your own the [G3588 ] [G2398 ] fellow-tribesmen [G4853 ] , as [G2531 ] also [G2532 ] they [G1473 ] by [G5259 ] the [G3588 ] Jews, 15 the [ones] [G3588 ] both [G2532 ] the [G3588 ] Boss '[G2962 ] killing Jesus [G2424 ] ("I AM Salvation, successor to Moses" [H3091 ] ), and [G2532 ] their own the [G3588 ] [G2398 ] prophets [G4396 ] , and [G2532 ] driving you out [G1473 ] [G1559 ] , and [G2532 ] to God '[G2316 ] [are] not [G3361 ] pleasing , and [G2532 ] to all [G3956 ] men opposing [G1727 ] ; 16 (ones restraining [G2967 ] us [G1473 ] to the [G3588 ] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484 ] to speak [G2980 ] , that [G2443 ] they should be delivered, [G4982 ] ) so as [G1519 ] the [G3588 ] to fill up their [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] sins at all times [G3842 ] ; but came [G5348 ] [G1161 ] upon [G1909 ] them [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] wrath [G3709 ] to [G1519 ] end [G5056 ] . 17 But we [G1473 ] [G1161 ] , brothers , being orphaned from you [G1473 ] for [G4314 ] time [G2540 ] an hour [G5610 ] , in person [G4383 ] , not [G3756 ] in heart [G2588 ] , more exceedingly [G4056 ] hurried [G4704 ] the [G3588 ] face [G4383 ] of you [G1473 ] to look [at] [G1492 ] with [G1722 ] much [G4183 ] desire [G1939 ] . 18 Therefore [G1352 ] we wanted [G2309 ] to come [G2064 ] to [G4314 ] you [G1473 ] -- even indeed I [G1473 ] [G3303 ] Paul, even [G2532 ] once and [G2532 ] twice [G1364 ] ; and [G2532 ] hindered [G1465 ] us [G1473 ] the [G3588 ] Satan [G4567 ] . 19 For what is [G5100 ] [G1063 ] our [G1473 ] hope [G1680 ] , or [G2228 ] joy [G5479 ] , or [G2228 ] crown [G4735 ] of boasting [G2746 ] ? or [G2228 ] is it not [G3780 ] also [G2532 ] you [G1473 ] in front of [G1715 ] the the [G3588 ] Boss '[G2962 ] of us [G1473 ] Jesus [G2424 ] ("I AM Salvation, successor to Moses" [H3091 ] ) Anointed [G5547 ] , at [G1722 ] the [G3588 ] of him '[G1473 ] arrival [G3952 ] ? 20 For you [G1473 ] [G1063 ] are the [G3588 ] our glory [G1391 ] [G1473 ] and [G2532 ] the [G3588 ] joy [G5479 ] .
