1 Thessalonians 3
1 So when we could bear it no longer, we were willing to be left on our own in Athens.
| ܘܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܚܡܤܢܢ ܨܒܝܢ ܠܡܦܫ ܒܐܬܢܘܤ ܒܠܚܘܕܝܢ |
2 We sent Timothy, our brother and fellow worker for God in the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith,
| ܘܢܫܕܪ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܛܝܡܬܐܘܤ ܐܚܘܢ ܘܡܫܡܫܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܡܥܕܪܢܢ ܒܤܒܪܬܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܢܫܪܪܟܘܢ ܘܢܒܥܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܥܠ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ |
3 so that none of you would be shaken by these trials. For you know that we are destined for this.
| ܕܠܐ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܬܬܩܛܥ ܠܗ ܒܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܠܗܕܐ ܗܘ ܤܝܡܝܢܢ |
4 Indeed, when we were with you, we kept warning you that we would suffer persecution; and as you know, it has come to pass.
| ܐܦ ܟܕ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܓܝܪ ܩܕܡܢ ܐܡܪܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܥܬܝܕܝܢܢ ܠܡܬܐܠܨܘ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܗܘܐ |
5 For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent to find out about your faith, for fear that the tempter had somehow tempted you and caused our labor to be in vain.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܠܐ ܚܡܤܢܬ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܫܕܪܬ ܕܐܕܥ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܕܠܡܐ ܢܢܤܝܟܘܢ ܡܢܤܝܢܐ ܘܢܗܘܐ ܥܡܠܢ ܤܪܝܩܐ |
6 But just now, Timothy has returned from his visit with the good news about your faith, your love, and the fond memories you have preserved, longing to see us just as we long to see you.
| ܗܫܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܢ ܕܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܢ ܛܝܡܬܐܘܤ ܡܢ ܨܐܕܝܟܘܢ ܘܤܒܪܢ ܥܠ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܥܠ ܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܘܕܐܝܬ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܥܘܗܕܢܢ ܛܒܐ ܒܟܠ ܥܕܢ ܘܤܘܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܡܚܙܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ |
7 For this reason, brothers, in all our distress and persecution, we have been reassured about you, because of your faith.
| ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܬܒܝܐܢ ܒܟܘܢ ܐܚܝܢ ܥܠ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܥܩܬܢ ܘܐܘܠܨܢܝܢ ܡܛܠ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ |
8 For now we can go on living, as long as you are standing firm in the Lord.
| ܘܗܫܐ ܗܘ ܚܝܝܢܢ ܐܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܬܬܩܝܡܘܢ ܒܡܪܢ |
9 How can we adequately thank God for you in return for our great joy over you in His presence?
| ܐܝܕܐ ܓܝܪ ܬܘܕܝܬܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢܢ ܠܡܦܪܥ ܚܠܦܝܟܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܥܠ ܟܠ ܚܕܘܬܐ ܕܚܕܝܢܢ ܡܛܠܬܟܘܢ |
10 Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking from your faith.
| ܐܠܐ ܕܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܢܬܟܫܦ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܘܒܐܝܡܡܐ ܕܢܚܙܐ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܘܢܓܡܘܪ ܡܐ ܕܚܤܝܪܐ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܟܘܢ |
11 Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܢ ܘܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܬܪܘܨ ܐܘܪܚܢ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ |
12 And may the Lord cause you to increase and overflow with love for one another and for everyone else, just as our love for you overflows,
| ܘܢܤܓܐ ܘܢܝܬܪ ܚܘܒܟܘܢ ܕܚܕ ܠܘܬ ܚܕ ܘܕܠܘܬ ܟܠܢܫ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܚܢܢ ܡܚܒܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ |
13 so that He may establish your hearts in blamelessness and holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints. Amen.
| ܘܢܩܝܡ ܠܒܘܬܟܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܒܩܕܝܫܘܬܐ ܩܕܡ ܐܠܗܐ ܐܒܘܢ ܒܡܐܬܝܬܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܥܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܩܕܝܫܘܗܝ |
