Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2 Amenuveve kple ŋutifafa si tso Mawu, Fofo la kple Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo gbɔ la nanɔ anyi kpli mi.

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Nɔvi lɔlɔ̃awo, ele be míatsɔ akpedada na Mawu ɖe mia ta. Menye nu dzeame ko wònye na mí o, ke boŋ míaƒe dɔ wònye be míawɔ na Mawu ɖe ale si miaƒe xɔse tsi ɖe edzi nukutɔe, eye miaƒe lɔlɔ̃ na mia nɔewo hã de to ŋutɔ la ta.

We ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers, as is only fitting, because your faith is greatly increasing and the love that each of you has for one another is abounding.

4 Enye dzidzɔ na mí be míaƒo adegbe tso miaƒe dzigbɔɖi kple ale si miaƒe xɔse de to le Mawu me la ŋu na hame bubuwo, togbɔ be miele fukpekpe kple ɣeyiɣi sesẽwo me tom hã.

As a result we ourselves boast about you in the churches of God for your perseverance and faithfulness in all the persecutions and tribulations that you are enduring.

5 Esia nye Mawu ƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ dzɔdzɔe la ƒe dzesi be woabu mi be miedze na mawufiaɖuƒe si ŋuti miekpe fu ɖo la.

This is evidence of the righteous judgment of God, and it is happening so that you may be considered worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.

6 Eye le ɣe ma ɣi me ke la, edzɔ le Mawu ƒe ŋkume be wòatsɔ xaxa aɖo teƒe na ame siwo na xaxa mi la.

It is indeed right for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you,

7 Eya ta magblɔ na mi, ame siwo le fu kpem la be Mawu ana dzudzɔ mi kple míawo nenye be Aƒetɔ Yesu va do kpoyi tso dziƒo le dzo ƒe aɖewo me kple eƒe mawudɔla sesẽwo.

and to give to you who are being afflicted relief along with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with his mighty angels.

8 Adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu ame siwo katã medi be yewoanya Mawu o kple ame siwo katã meɖoa to míaƒe Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe nyanyui la o.

With flaming fire he will inflict vengeance on those who do not know God and who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

9 Woahe to na wo le dzomavɔ la me, eye womagakpɔ Aƒetɔ la ƒe ŋkume akpɔ gbeɖe o. Gawu la, womakpɔ eƒe ŋutikɔkɔe ƒe ŋusẽ hã o, (aiōnios g166)

They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, separated from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might, (aiōnios g166)

10 ne eva be wòaxɔ kafukafu kple bubu ɖe dɔ gã si wòwɔ na ame kɔkɔewo la ta. Miawo la, mianɔ ame siwo anɔ ekafum la dome, elabena miexɔ Mawu ƒe nya si míegblɔ na mi la dzi se.

on that day when he comes to be glorified by his saints and to be marveled at by all who have believed, including you, because you have believed our testimony.

11 Eya ta míedoa gbe ɖa ɖe mia ta ɖaa be míaƒe Mawu la nawɔ mi vi siwo ƒomevi wòdi be woanɔ ye si lae, eye agawɔ mi mianyo ade ale si miedi la nu! Mlɔeba la, atsɔ eƒe ŋusẽ axe fe na mi ɖe miaƒe xɔse ta.

With this in mind, we always pray for you that our God will make you worthy of his calling and by his power bring to fulfillment every good intention and work of faith,

12 Ekema ame sia ame anɔ Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe ŋkɔ kafum ɖe nu nyui siwo do go tso mia me wokpɔ la ta, eye miaƒe ŋutikɔkɔe gãtɔ kekeakee nye be miava nye etɔ. Míaƒe Mawu kple Aƒetɔ Yesu Kristo ƒe nublanuikpɔkpɔ sɔgbɔ la ana esiawo katã ava eme na mi.

so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
