| 4 1 | Finally, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you learned from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, you do so more and more. | A Life Pleasing to God 1Th.4.1-12 | Λοιπὸν οὖν, ἀδελφοί, ἐρωτῶμεν ὑμᾶς καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν ἐν κυρίῳ Ἰησοῦ, ἵνα καθὼς παρελάβετε παρ' ἡμῶν τὸ πῶς δεῖ ὑμᾶς περιπατεῖν καὶ ἀρέσκειν θεῷ, καθὼς καὶ περιπατεῖτε, ἵνα περισσεύητε μᾶλλον. |
|
| 2 | For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. | | οἰδατε γὰρ τίνας παραγγελίας ἐδώκαμεν ὑμῖν διὰ τοῦ κυρίου Ἰησοῦ. |
|
| 3 | For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from unchastity; | | τοῦτο γάρ ἐστιν θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ, ὁ ἀγιασμὸς ὑμῶν, ἀπέχεσθαι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ τῆς πορνείας, |
|
| 4 | that each one of you know how to take a wife for himself in holiness and honour, | | εἰδέναι ἑκαστον ὑμῶν τὸ ἑαυτοῦ σκεῦος κτᾶσθαι ἐν ἀγιασμῷ καὶ τιμῇ, |
|
| 5 | not in the passion of lust like heathen who do not know God; | | μὴ ἐν πάθει ἐπιθυμίας καθάπερ καὶ τὰ ἐθνη τὰ μὴ εἰδότα τὸν θεόν, |
|
| 6 | that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we solemnly forewarned you. | | τὸ μὴ ὑπερβαίνειν καὶ πλεονεκτεῖν ἐν τῷ πράγματι τὸν ἀδελφὸν αὐτοῦ, διότι ἐκδικος κύριος περὶ πάντων τούτων, καθὼς καὶ προείπαμεν ὑμῖν καὶ διεμαρτυράμεθα. |
|
| 7 | For God has not called us for uncleanness, but in holiness. | | οὐ γὰρ ἐκάλεσεν ἡμᾶς ὁ θεὸς ἐπὶ ἀκαθαρσίᾳ ἀλλ' ἐν ἀγιασμῷ. |
|
| 8 | Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you. | | τοιγαροῦν ὁ ἀθετῶν οὐκ ἄνθρωπον ἀθετεῖ ἀλλὰ τὸν θεὸν τὸν καὶ διδόντα τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτοῦ τὸ ἀγιον εἰς ὑμᾶς. |
|
| 9 | But concerning love of the brethren you have no need to have any one write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another; | | Περὶ δὲ τῆς φιλαδελφίας οὐ χρείαν ἐχετε γράφειν ὑμῖν, αὐτοὶ γὰρ ὑμεῖς θεοδίδακτοί ἐστε εἰς τὸ ἀγαπᾶν ἀλλήλους· |
|
| 10 | and indeed you do love all the brethren throughout Macedonia. But we exhort you, brethren, to do so more and more, | | καὶ γὰρ ποιεῖτε αὐτὸ εἰς πάντας τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς τοὺς ἐν ὁλῃ τῇ Μακεδονίᾳ. παρακαλοῦμεν δὲ ὑμᾶς, ἀδελφοί, περισσεύειν μᾶλλον, |
|
| 11 | to aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we charged you; | | καὶ φιλοτιμεῖσθαι ἡσυχάζειν καὶ πράσσειν τὰ ἰδια καὶ ἐργάζεσθαι ταῖς ἰδίαις χερσὶν ὑμῶν, καθὼς ὑμῖν παρηγγείλαμεν, |
|
| 12 | so that you may command the respect of outsiders, and be dependent on nobody. | | ἵνα περιπατῆτε εὐσχημόνως πρὸς τοὺς ἐξω καὶ μηδενὸς χρείαν ἐχητε. |
