1 Thessalonians 1
1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God the Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ!
Sel Paul, Silas, ac Timothy — Nu sin mwet lun church in Thessalonica, su ma lun God Papa ac Leum Jesus Christ: Lungkulang ac misla in oan yuruwos.
2 We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers,
Kut sang kulo nu sin God keiwos nukewa, ac esam kowos in pre lasr pacl nukewa.
3 unceasingly remembering of you the work of the faith, and the labour of the love, and the endurance of the hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, in the presence of our God and Father,
Kut esam na ye mutun God ac Papa tumasr ouiyen orekmakinyen lulalfongi lowos, ac lungse lowos su pwanang kowos moniyuk in orekma, ac finsrak ku lowos ke Leum lasr Jesus Christ.
4 having known, brethren beloved, by God, your election,
Mwet wiasr in Leum, kut etu lah God El lungse kowos ac sulekowosla tuh kowos in mwet lal.
5 because our good news did not come to you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, even as ye have known of what sort we became among you because of you,
Tuh kut fahkak Pweng Wo nu suwos, tia ke kas mukena, a ke ku ac ke Ngun Mutal, ac oayapa ke etu na pwaye lasr lah ma inge kas pwaye. Aok, kowos etu ouiyen moul lasr ke kut tuh muta yuruwos, lah ma kut oru ma in akwoye kowos.
6 and ye — ye did become imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation, with joy of the Holy Spirit,
Kowos etawi kut ac oayapa Leum; ac finne yohk keok lowos, kowos tuh eis pweng ke Jesus wi engan su tuku sin Ngun Mutal.
7 so that ye became patterns to all those believing in Macedonia and Achaia,
Ouinge kowos ekla mwe srikasrak nu sin mwet lulalfongi nukewa in acn Macedonia ac Achaia.
8 for from you hath sounded forth the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God did go forth, so that we have no need to say anything,
Ke sripowos, kas ke Leum inge sulkakinyukelik, tia nu in acn Macedonia ac Achaia mukena, a pweng ke lulalfongi lowos ke God fahsrelik nu yen nukewa. Ouinge wanginna ma kut enenu in fahk.
9 for they themselves concerning us do declare what entrance we had unto you, and how ye did turn unto God from the idols, to serve a living and true God,
Mwet nukewa srumun ouiyen painguk wowo lowos nu sesr ke kut tuh fahsrot nu yuruwos, oayapa ke kowos forla liki alu nu ke ma sruloala, ac inge kowos kulansapu God pwaye ac moul,
10 and to wait for His Son from the heavens, whom He did raise out of the dead — Jesus, who is rescuing us from the anger that is coming.
ac kowos soano tuku lun Wen natul inkusrao me — aok Jesus, su God El akmoulyauk liki misa, ac su molikutla liki kasrkusrak lun God ke len in nununku ac tuku.
