| 1 Thes 5:1 Now as to the times and the epochs, brethren, you have no need of anything to be written to you. 1 Thes 5:2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. 1 Thes 5:3 While they are saying, "Peace and safety!" then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape. 1 Thes 5:4 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day would overtake you like a thief; 1 Thes 5:5 for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness; 1 Thes 5:6 so then let us not sleep as others do, but let us be alert and sober. 1 Thes 5:7 For those who sleep do their sleeping at night, and those who get drunk get drunk at night. 1 Thes 5:8 But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation. 1 Thes 5:9 For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 1 Thes 5:10 who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him. 1 Thes 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing. 1 Thes 5:12 But we request of you, brethren, that you appreciate those who diligently labor among you, and have charge over you in the Lord and give you instruction, 1 Thes 5:13 and that you esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Live in peace with one another. 1 Thes 5:14 We urge you, brethren, admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone. 1 Thes 5:15 See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek after that which is good for one another and for all people. 1 Thes 5:16 Rejoice always; 1 Thes 5:17 pray without ceasing; 1 Thes 5:18 in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thes 5:19 Do not quench the Spirit; 1 Thes 5:20 do not despise prophetic utterances. 1 Thes 5:21 But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; 1 Thes 5:22 abstain from every form of evil. 1 Thes 5:23 Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thes 5:24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass. 1 Thes 5:25 Brethren, pray for us. 1 Thes 5:26 Greet all the brethren with a holy kiss. 1 Thes 5:27 I adjure you by the Lord to have this letter read to all the brethren. 1 Thes 5:28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
