2 Thessalonians 3

1 As to the rest, pray, brothers, concerning us, that the word of the LORD may run and may be glorified, as also with you,

As to the rest, pray ye, brethren, concerning us, that the word of the Lord may run and may be glorified, as also with you,

2 and that we may be delivered from the unreasonable and evil men, for not all [are] of the faith;

and that we may be delivered from the unreasonable and evil men, for the faith [is] not of all;

3 but faithful is the LORD who will establish you, and will guard [you] from the evil [one];

and stedfast is the Lord, who shall establish you, and shall guard [you] from the evil;

4 and we now have confidence in the LORD, that which we command you both do and will do;

and we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that the things that we command you ye both do and will do;

5 and the LORD direct your hearts to the love of God, and to the endurance of the Christ.

and the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God, and to the endurance of the Christ.

6 And we command you, brothers, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not after the tradition that you received from us,

And we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to withdraw yourselves from every brother disorderly walking, and not after the deliverance that ye received from us,

7 for you have known how it is necessary to imitate us, because we did not act disorderly among you;

for yourselves have known how it behoveth [you] to imitate us, because we did not act disorderly among you;

8 nor did we eat bread of anyone for nothing, but in labor and in travail, working night and day, not to be chargeable to any of you;

nor for nought did we eat bread of any one, but in labour and in travail, night and day working, not to be chargeable to any of you;

9 not because we have no authority, but that we might give ourselves to you [as] a pattern, to imitate us;

not because we have not authority, but that ourselves a pattern we might give to you, to imitate us;

10 for even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat,

for even when we were with you, this we did command you, that if any one is not willing to work, neither let him eat,

11 for we hear of some walking disorderly among you, working nothing, but being busybodies,

for we hear of certain walking among you disorderly, nothing working, but over working,

12 and such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ, that working with quietness, they may eat their own bread;

and such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness working, their own bread they may eat;

13 and you, brothers, may you not be weary doing well,

and ye, brethren, may ye not be weary doing well,

14 and if anyone does not obey our word through the letter, note this one, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed,

and if any one do not obey our word through the letter, this one note ye, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed,

15 and do not count as an enemy, but admonish as a brother;

and as an enemy count [him] not, but admonish ye [him] as a brother;

16 and may the LORD of peace Himself always give to you peace in every way; the LORD [is] with you all!

and may the Lord of the peace Himself give to you the peace always in every way; the Lord [is] with you all!

17 The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is a sign in every letter; thus I write.

The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is a sign in every letter; thus I write;

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all! Amen.

the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all! Amen.
