1 Thessalonians 5:1-6

Wycliffe WYC

1 But, brethren, of times and moments ye need not that I write to you.

2 For ye yourselves know diligently, that the day of the Lord shall come, as a thief in the night.

3 For when they shall say peace is, and secureness, then sudden death shall come on them [+Soothly when they shall say peace and secureness, then suddenly perishing, or death, shall come to them], as sorrow to a woman that is with child, and they shall not escape.

4 But, brethren, ye be not in darknesses, that that day as a thief catch you.

5 For all ye be the sons of light, and sons of [the] day; we be not of night, neither of darknesses.

6 Therefore sleep we not as others; but wake we, and be we sober.

New International Version NIV

1 Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you,

2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

3 While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

4 But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief.

5 You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness.

6 So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober.
