2 Thessalonians 3
1 Now, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may rush and be glorified, as it also is with you.
το λοιπον προσευχεσθε αδελφοι περι ημων ινα ο λογος του κυριου τρεχη και δοξαζηται καθως και προς υμας
2 Pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not all have faith.
και ινα ρυσθωμεν απο των ατοπων και πονηρων ανθρωπων ου γαρ παντων η πιστις
3 But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one.
πιστος δε εστιν ο κυριος ος στηριξει υμας και φυλαξει απο του πονηρου
4 We have confidence in the Lord about you, that you both do and will continue to do the things that we command.
πεποιθαμεν δε εν κυριω εφ υμας οτι α παραγγελλομεν υμιν και ποιειτε και ποιησετε
5 May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the endurance of Christ.
ο δε κυριος κατευθυναι υμων τας καρδιας εις την αγαπην του θεου και εις την υπομονην του χριστου
6 Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you avoid every brother who lives a lazy life and does not live according to the traditions you received from us.
παραγγελλομεν δε υμιν αδελφοι εν ονοματι του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου στελλεσθαι υμας απο παντος αδελφου ατακτως περιπατουντος και μη κατα την παραδοσιν ην παρελαβον παρ ημων
7 For you yourselves know it is proper for you to imitate us. We did not live among you as those who had no discipline.
αυτοι γαρ οιδατε πως δει μιμεισθαι ημας οτι ουκ ητακτησαμεν εν υμιν
8 We did not eat anyone's food without paying for it. Instead, we worked night and day in difficult labor and hardship, so we might not be a burden to any of you.
ουδε δωρεαν αρτον εφαγομεν παρα τινος αλλ εν κοπω και μοχθω νυκτα και ημεραν εργαζομενοι προς το μη επιβαρησαι τινα υμων
9 We did this not because we have no authority. Instead, we did this in order to be an example to you, so that you may imitate us.
ουχ οτι ουκ εχομεν εξουσιαν αλλ ινα εαυτους τυπον δωμεν υμιν εις το μιμεισθαι ημας
10 When we were with you, we commanded you, “The one who is unwilling to work must not eat.”
και γαρ οτε ημεν προς υμας τουτο παρηγγελλομεν υμιν οτι ει τις ου θελει εργαζεσθαι μηδε εσθιετω
11 For we hear that some walk idly among you. They do not work but are instead meddlers.
ακουομεν γαρ τινας περιπατουντας εν υμιν ατακτως μηδεν εργαζομενους αλλα περιεργαζομενους
12 Now such ones we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they should work with quietness and eat their own food.
τοις δε τοιουτοις παραγγελλομεν και παρακαλουμεν δια του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ινα μετα ησυχιας εργαζομενοι τον εαυτων αρτον εσθιωσιν
13 But you, brothers, do not become tired of doing what is right.
υμεις δε αδελφοι μη εκκακησητε καλοποιουντες
14 If anyone does not obey our word in this letter, take note of him and have no association with him, so that he may be ashamed.
ει δε τις ουχ υπακουει τω λογω ημων δια της επιστολης τουτον σημειουσθε και μη συναναμιγνυσθε αυτω ινα εντραπη
15 Do not consider him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.
και μη ως εχθρον ηγεισθε αλλα νουθετειτε ως αδελφον
16 May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. May the Lord be with you all.
αυτος δε ο κυριος της ειρηνης δωη υμιν την ειρηνην δια παντος εν παντι τροπω ο κυριος μετα παντων υμων
17 This is my greeting, Paul, with my own hand, which is the sign in every letter. This is how I write.
ο ασπασμος τη εμη χειρι παυλου ο εστιν σημειον εν παση επιστολη ουτως γραφω
18 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
η χαρις του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου μετα παντων υμων αμην
