1|Thes.|5:1|-|But concerning the |1a|times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need for anything to be |b|written to you;
1|Thes.|5:2|-|For you yourselves know perfectly well that |1|like a |a|thief in the |b|night, so the |2c|day of the Lord comes.
1|Thes.|5:3|-|When they say, |a|Peace and security, then |1|sudden |b|destruction comes upon them, just as birth |c|pangs to a woman with child; and they shall by no means escape.
1|Thes.|5:4|-|But you, brothers, are not in |a|darkness that the day should overtake you like a thief;
1|Thes.|5:5|-|For you are all sons of |a|light and sons of the |b|day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
1|Thes.|5:6|-|So then let us not |1a|sleep, as the rest do, but let us |2b|watch and be |c|sober.
1|Thes.|5:7|-|For those who sleep, sleep during the |a|night, and those who get |1b|drunk are drunk during the night;
1|Thes.|5:8|-|But since we are of the |a|day, let us be |b|sober, putting on the |1|breastplate of |c|faith and love and a |1d|helmet, the |2|hope of |3|salvation.
1|Thes.|5:9|-|For God did |1|not |a|appoint us to |b|wrath but to the obtaining of |2c|salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
1|Thes.|5:10|-|Who |1a|died for us in order that whether we |2|watch or |3|sleep, we may |b|live together |4|with Him.
1|Thes.|5:11|-|Therefore comfort |a|one another, and |b|build up each one the other, even as you also do.
1|Thes.|5:12|-|Furthermore we ask you, brothers, to |1a|acknowledge |2|those who labor among you and |3|take the |b|lead among you in the Lord and admonish you,
1|Thes.|5:13|-|And to |1a|regard them most highly in |b|love because of their work. Be |2|at |c|peace among yourselves.
1|Thes.|5:14|-|And we |a|exhort you, brothers, Admonish the |1b|disorderly, console the |2c|fainthearted, sustain the |3d|weak, be |4e|long-suffering toward all.
1|Thes.|5:15|-|See that no one repays anyone |a|evil for evil, but |1|always pursue what is |b|good both for |c|one another and for all.
1|Thes.|5:16|-||1|Always |a|rejoice,
1|Thes.|5:17|-||1|Unceasingly |a|pray,
1|Thes.|5:18|-||1|In everything give |a|thanks; |2|for this is the |b|will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
1|Thes.|5:19|-|Do |1|not quench the |a|Spirit;
1|Thes.|5:20|-|Do not |1|despise |2|prophecies,
1|Thes.|5:21|-|But |1|prove all things. Hold fast to what is |a|good;
1|Thes.|5:22|-||a|Abstain from every |1|kind of evil.
1|Thes.|5:23|-||1|And the |2|God of |a|peace Himself |3b|sanctify you |4|wholly, and may your |5c|spirit and |d|soul and |e|body be |f|preserved |6|complete, |g|without blame, |7|at the |8h|coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1|Thes.|5:24|-||a|Faithful is He who |b|calls you, who |1|also will |c|do it.
1|Thes.|5:25|-|Brothers, |a|pray also for us.
1|Thes.|5:26|-|Greet all the brothers with a holy |a|kiss.
1|Thes.|5:27|-|I adjure you by the Lord to have this letter |a|read to all the |1|brothers.
1|Thes.|5:28|-|The |1a|grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
