II THESSALONIANS
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 | 3:4 | 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 | 3:14 | 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 | 3:16 | 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. | |
