1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy—unto the assembly of Thessalonians, in God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ, —

ⲁ̅ⲡⲁⲩⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲥⲓⲗⲟⲩⲁⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲧⲓⲙⲟⲑⲉⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϯⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲑⲉⲥⲥⲁⲗⲟⲛⲓⲕⲏ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲡⲉⲛⲓⲱⲧ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ Ⲡⲭ̅ⲥ̅.

2 Favour unto you, and peace, from God [our] Father and Lord Jesus Christ.

3 We are bound, to be giving thanks, unto God, continually, concerning you, brethren, even as it is, meet; because your faith groweth exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all one to another aboundeth,

ⲅ̅⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϣⲉⲡ⳿ϩⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲛⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧ⳿ⲥⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ϫⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⲁⲓⲁⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥⲉⲣϩⲟⲩ⳿ⲟ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⳿ⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲡⲓⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲉⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣⲏ ⲟⲩ.

4 So that, we ourselves, in you, are boasting, in the assemblies of God, over your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which ye are sustaining: —

ⲇ̅ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⳿ⲁⲛⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϣⲟⲩϣⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲉⲕ⳿ⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲟⲛⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϩϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲇⲓⲱⲅⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲟϫϩⲉϫ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲱⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ.

5 A proof of the righteous judgment of God, to the end ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, in behalf of which ye are also suffering: —

ⲉ̅ⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲑⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛⲉⲣ⳿ⲡⲉⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲁ ⳿ⲛϯⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲑⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛϭⲓϧⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲥ.

6 If, at least, it is a, righteous thing with God, to recompense, affliction, unto them that afflict you,

ⲋ̅ⲓⲥϫⲉ ⲟⲩϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϩⲟϫϩⲉϫ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲧϣⲉⲃⲓⲱ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧϩⲟϫϩⲉϫ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲉⲛ.

7 And, unto you that are afflicted, release, with us, —by the revealing of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his messengers of power,

ⲍ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲑⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲟⲩϩⲟϫϩⲉϫ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲙⲁⲛ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓϭⲱⲣⲡ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥϫⲟⲙ.

8 In a fiery flame; holding forth vengeance—against them that refuse to know God, and them who decline to hearken unto the glad-message of our Lord Jesus,

ⲏ̅ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩϣⲁϩ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ⲉϥⲛⲁϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ ϭⲓ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲓϣ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲥⲟⲩⲉⲛ ⲫϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲡⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛ⳪ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅.

9 Who, indeed, a penalty, shall pay—age-abiding destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might— (aiōnios g166)

ⲑ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲉⲑⲛⲁϭⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϩⲁⲡ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲕⲟ ⳿ⲛⲉⲛⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϩⲟ ⳿ⲙⲠ⳪ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲁ⳿ⲧϩⲏ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲧⲉϥϫⲟⲙ. (aiōnios g166)

10 Whensoever he shall come, to be made all-glorious in his saints, and to be marvelled at in all who believed, —because our witness unto you was believed, —in that day.

11 Unto which end, we are also praying continually for you, that our God may count, you, worthy of your calling, and fulfil every good-pleasure of goodness and work of faith, with power, —

12 That the name of our Lord Jesus may be made all-glorious in you, and, ye, in him, According to the favour of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
