2 Thessalonians 3 :: New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB95)

Exhortation

2Th 3:1Finally, brethren, pray for us that the word of the Lord will [fn]spread rapidly and be glorified, just as it did also with you;

2Th 3:2

2Th 3:2and that we will be rescued from [fn]perverse and evil men; for not all have [fn]faith.

2Th 3:3

2Th 3:3But the Lord is faithful, [fn]and He will strengthen and protect you [fn]from the evil one.

2Th 3:4

2Th 3:4We have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you are doing and will continue to do what we command.

2Th 3:5

2Th 3:5May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the steadfastness of Christ.

2Th 3:6

2Th 3:6Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you [fn]keep away from every brother who [fn]leads an [fn]unruly life and not according to the tradition which [fn]you received from us.

2Th 3:7

2Th 3:7For you yourselves know how you ought to [fn]follow our example, because we did not act in an undisciplined manner among you,

2Th 3:8

2Th 3:8nor did we eat [fn]anyone’s bread [fn]without paying for it, but with labor and hardship we kept working night and day so that we would not be a burden to any of you;

2Th 3:9

2Th 3:9not because we do not have the right to this, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you, so that you would [fn]follow our example.

2Th 3:10

2Th 3:10For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.

2Th 3:11

2Th 3:11For we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies.

2Th 3:12

2Th 3:12Now such persons we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to work in quiet fashion and eat their own bread.

2Th 3:13

2Th 3:13But as for you, brethren, do not grow weary of doing good.

2Th 3:14

2Th 3:14If anyone does not obey our [fn]instruction [fn]in this letter, take special note of that person [fn]and do not associate with him, so that he will be put to shame.

2Th 3:15

2Th 3:15Yet do not regard him as an enemy, but [fn]admonish him as a brother.

2Th 3:16

2Th 3:16Now may the Lord of peace Himself continually grant you peace in every [fn]circumstance. The Lord be with you all!

2Th 3:17

2Th 3:17 [fn]I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand, and this is a distinguishing mark in every letter; this is the way I write.

2Th 3:18

2Th 3:18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
