テサロニケ人への手紙第二 1
1 パウロ、シルワノ、テモテ、書を我らの父なる神および主イエス・キリストに在るテサロニケ人の教會に贈る。
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, to the assembly of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 願はくは父なる神および主イエス・キリストより賜ふ恩惠と平安と汝らに在らんことを。
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 兄弟よ、われら汝 等につきて常に神に感謝せざるを得ず、これ當然の事なり。そは汝らの信仰おほいに加はり、各自みな互の愛を厚くしたればなり。
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 されば我らは、汝らが忍べる凡ての迫害と患難との中にありて保ちたる忍耐と信仰とを、神の諸 教會の間に誇る。
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 これ神の正しき審判の兆にして、汝らが神の國に相應しき者とならん爲なり。今その御國のために苦難を受く。
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 汝らに患難を加ふる者に患難をもて報い、患難を受くる汝らに、我らと共に安息をもて報い給ふは、神の正しき事なり。
For it is a righteous thing with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,
7 即ち主イエス焔の中にその能力の御使たちと共に天より顯れ、
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 神を知らぬ者と我らの主イエスの福音に服はぬ者とに報いをなし給ふとき、
punishing those who don’t know God, and to those who don’t obey the Good News of our Lord Jesus,
who will pay the penalty: eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his might, (aiōnios g166)
10 その時は主おのが聖徒によりて崇められ、凡ての信ずる者（なんぢらも我らの證を信じたる者なり）によりて讃められんとて來りたまふ日なり。
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 これに就きて我ら常に汝らのために祈るは、我らの神の汝 等をして召に適ふ者となし、能力をもて汝らの凡て善に就ける願と信仰の業とを成就せしめ給はんことなり。
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 これ我らの神および主イエス・キリストの惠によりて、我らの主イエスの御名の汝らの中に崇められ、又なんぢらも彼に在りて崇められん爲なり。
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.
