God

because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

in every thing give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus in regard to you.

and the God of the peace Himself sanctify you wholly, and may your whole spirit, and soul, and body, be preserved unblameably in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ:

Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!

We ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because increase greatly doth your faith, and abound doth the love of each one of you all, to one another;

so that we ourselves do glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye bear;

a token of the righteous judgment of God, for your being counted worthy of the reign of God, for which also ye suffer,

since it is a righteous thing with God to give back to those troubling you--trouble,

in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ;

for which also we do pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and may fulfil all the good pleasure of goodness, and the work of the faith in power,

that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.

who is opposing and is raising himself up above all called God or worshipped, so that he in the sanctuary of God as God hath sat down, shewing himself off that he is God-- the day doth not come .

and because of this shall God send to them a working of delusion, for their believing the lie,

And we--we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, beloved by the Lord, that God did choose you from the beginning to salvation, in sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth,

and may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and our God and Father, who did love us, and did give comfort age-during, and good hope in grace,

and the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God, and to the endurance of the Christ.

Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to a command of God our Saviour, and of the Lord Jesus Christ our hope,

to Timotheus--genuine child in faith: Grace, kindness, peace, from God our Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord,

according to the good news of the glory of the blessed God, with which I was entrusted.

and to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only wise God, is honour and glory--to the ages of the ages! Amen.

for this is right and acceptable before God our Saviour,

for one is God, one also is mediator of God and of men, the man Christ Jesus,

(and if any one his own house how to lead hath not known, how an assembly of God shall he take care of?)

and if I delay, that thou mayest know how it behoveth thee to conduct thyself in the house of God, which is an assembly of the living God--a pillar and foundation of the truth,
