Chapter 3
II T Rotherha 3:1  For the rest, brethren, be praying for us,—that, the word of the Lord, may be running, and gaining glory, according as [it did] even with you;
II T Rotherha 3:2  And that we may be rescued from the presuming and wicked men; for, not all, hold the faith.
II T Rotherha 3:3  Faithful, is the Lord,—who will confirm you, and guard you from the wicked one:
II T Rotherha 3:4  We are persuaded, however, in the Lord, as touching you,—that, what things we give in charge, Ye [both] are doing and will do;—
II T Rotherha 3:5  But may, the Lord, guide your hearts into the love of God, and into the endurance of the Christ.
II T Rotherha 3:6  Howbeit, we charge you, brethren,—that, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, ye be withdrawing yourselves from every brother—who, in a disorderly way, doth walk, and not according to the instruction which ye received from us.
II T Rotherha 3:7  For, ye yourselves, know, how needful it is to be imitating us, in that we were not disorderly among you,
II T Rotherha 3:8  Nor, as a free-gift, did eat, bread, from anyone, but, with toil and hardship, night and day, working,—that we might not burden any of you;—
II T Rotherha 3:9  Not because we have not authority, but that, ourselves, as an ensample, we might hold forth unto you,—to the end ye might he imitating us.
II T Rotherha 3:10  For, even when we were with you, this, were we giving in charge unto you,—that, if any will not work, neither let him eat!
II T Rotherha 3:11  We hear, in fact, of some who are walking among you in a disorderly way, at nothing, working, yet too busily working!
II T Rotherha 3:12  Now, such as these, we charge and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ,—that, with quietness, working, their own bread, they be eating.
II T Rotherha 3:13  But, ye, brethren, be not weary in well-doing;—
II T Rotherha 3:14  And, if anyone be not giving ear unto our word through means of this letter, on this one, set a mark—not to be mixing yourselves up with him,—that he may be reproved;
II T Rotherha 3:15  And, not as an enemy, be esteeming him, but be admonishing him, as a brother.
II T Rotherha 3:16  But may, the Lord of peace himself, give you peace, always, in every way. The Lord, be with you all.
II T Rotherha 3:17  The salutation of Paul—with my own hand, which is a sign in every letter: thus, I write.
II T Rotherha 3:18  The favour of our Lord Jesus Christ, be with you all.
