< テサロニケ人への手紙第二 1 >

1 パウロ、シルヴァノ及びチモテオ、我父にて在す神、及び主イエズス、キリストに在るテサロニケ人の教會に[書簡を贈る]。
Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, to the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2 願はくは我父にて在す神、及び主イエズス、キリストより、恩寵と平安とを汝等に賜はらん事を。
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!
3 兄弟等よ、我等は絶えず汝等に就きて相當に神に感謝せざるべからず。是汝等の信仰益増加して、面々の愛情も皆互に豊なればなり。
We always ought to give thanks to God for you, brothers, as it is fitting, because your faith increases greatly, and the love of each one of you all abounds to one another,
4 然れば我等自らも汝等を以て、即ち其忍べる凡ての迫害及び患難に於る忍耐と信仰とを以て、神の諸教會の間に誇とす。
so that we ourselves glory in you in the assemblies of God, for your endurance and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you bear—
5 此患難は神の正しき審判の徴にして、汝等が神の國の為に苦しみて之に入るに足る者とせられん為なり。
a token of the righteous judgment of God, for your being counted worthy of the Kingdom of God, for which you also suffer,
6 其は汝等を悩ます人々に悩を以て報い給ふは、神に取りて正當の事なれば、
since [it is] a righteous thing with God to give back to those troubling you—tribulation,
7 悩める汝等にも我等と共に安息を賜ふ事正當なり。是主イエズス、其能力の天使等を随へて天より顕れ給ふ時の事にして、
and to you who are troubled—rest with us in the revelation of the Lord Jesus from Heaven, with messengers of His power,
8 即ち焔の中に於て、神を知らざる人々、我主イエズス、キリストの福音に從はざる人々に報い給ふ時に當りて、
in flaming fire, giving vengeance to those not knowing God, and to those not obeying the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ,
9 彼等は主の御顔と其能力の光榮とを離れて終なき亡の罰を受けん、 (aiōnios g166)
who will suffer justice—continuous destruction—from the face of the LORD, and from the glory of His strength, (aiōnios g166)
10 其時主來り給ひて、其聖徒によりて光榮を受け給ひ、信じたる凡ての人より誉を得給ふべし、是我等の證する所、汝等に信ぜられたればなり。
when He may come to be glorified in His holy ones, and to be wondered at by all those believing—because our testimony was believed among you—in that day;
11 故に我等常に汝等の為に祈りて、我神汝等をして其召に適はしめ、且及ぶ限り凡ての善意と信仰の業とを全うし給はん事を願ひ奉る。
for which we also always pray for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and may fulfill all the good pleasure of goodness, and the work of faith in power,
12 是我神と主イエズス、キリストとの恩寵に由りて、我主イエズス、キリストの御名汝等の中に光榮を着せられ、汝等も彼に在りて光榮を得ん為なり。
that the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and you in Him, according to the grace of our God and Lord Jesus Christ.
