Hebrew Names Version HNV
Young's Literal Translation YLT
1 Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Yeshua, that, as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, -- that you abound more and more.
1
As to the rest, then, brethren, we request you, and call upon you in the Lord Jesus, as ye did receive from us how it behoveth you to walk and to please God, that ye may abound the more,
2 For you know what charge we gave you through the Lord Yeshua.
2
for ye have known what commands we gave you through the Lord Jesus,
3 For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,
3
for this is the will of God -- your sanctification; that ye abstain from the whoredom,
4 that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
4
that each of you know his own vessel to possess in sanctification and honour,
5 not in the passion of lust, even as the Goyim who don't know God;
5
not in the affection of desire, as also the nations that were not knowing God,
6 that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.
6
that no one go beyond and defraud in the matter his brother, because an avenger [is] the Lord of all these, as also we spake before to you and testified,
7 For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
7
for God did not call us on uncleanness, but in sanctification;
8 Therefore he who rejects, doesn't reject man, but God, who has also given his Ruach HaKodesh to you.
8
he, therefore, who is despising -- doth not despise man, but God, who also did give His Holy Spirit to us.
9 But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,
9
And concerning the brotherly love, ye have no need of [my] writing to you, for ye yourselves are God-taught to love one another,
10 for indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;
10
for ye do it also to all the brethren who [are] in all Macedonia; and we call upon you, brethren, to abound still more,
11 and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we charged you;
11
and to study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we did command you,
12 that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
12
that ye may walk becomingly unto those without, and may have lack of nothing.
13 But we don't want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don't grieve like the rest, who have no hope.
13
And I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, that ye may not sorrow, as also the rest who have not hope,
14 For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, even so those who have fallen asleep in Yeshua will God bring with him.
14
for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so also God those asleep through Jesus he will bring with him,
15 For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.
15
for this to you we say in the word of the Lord, that we who are living -- who do remain over to the presence of the Lord -- may not precede those asleep,
16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the chief angel, and with God's shofar. The dead in Messiah will rise first,
16
because the Lord himself, in a shout, in the voice of a chief-messenger, and in the trump of God, shall come down from heaven, and the dead in Christ shall rise first,
17 then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
17
then we who are living, who are remaining over, together with them shall be caught away in clouds to meet the Lord in air, and so always with the Lord we shall be;
18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.
18
so, then, comfort ye one another in these words.
