Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly 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.

We are bound to always give thanks to God for you, brothers, even as it is appropriate, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of each and every one of you toward one another abounds,

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.

so that we ourselves boast about you in the assemblies of God for your perseverance and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you endure.

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 an obvious sign of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that you may be counted worthy of God’s Kingdom, for which you also suffer.

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.

For it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,

and to give relief to you who are afflicted with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire,

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.

punishing those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News 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)

who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face 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.

when he comes in that day to be glorified in his saints and to be admired among all those who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

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.

To this end we also pray always for you that our God may count you worthy of your calling, and fulfill every desire of goodness and work of faith with power,

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.

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