1 Tesaloniana 4
1 Ie amy zao ry longo, ihalalia’ay, naho risihe’ay amy Talè Iesoà, ty hitomboa’ areo nainai’e amo fañaveloañe nañoha’aio, naho hañasìtra an’ Andrianañahare;
Finally then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Yeshua, that as you received from us how you ought to live and to please God, even as you are living, that you excel more and more.
2 fa fohi’ areo o fanoroañe natolo’ay anahareo añam’ Iesoà Talèo.
For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Yeshua.
3 Inao ty satrin’ Añahare: t’ie hiavake, hisitak’ ami’ty fiolorañe tsy mañeva;
For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,
4 ie songa mahay milie-batañe ho ami’ty fiavahañe naho asiñe,
that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
5 tsy hilomoloañe an-kadrao manahake o kilakila’ ondaty tsy mahafohiñe an’ Andrianañahareo;
not in the passion of lust, even as the nations who do not know God;
6 sindre tsy handilatse naho hañaramamo an-drahalahi’e; fa i Talè ro mpamale i hene rezay, hambañe amy nimanea’ay hatahata ama’ areoy.
that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.
7 Toe tsy nikanjy an-tika ho an-kaleorañe t’i Andrianañahare fa ho am-piavahañe.
For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
8 Aa ze tsy mipaoke, le tsy t’ie mifary ondaty, fa an’ Andrianañahare nanolots’ anahareo i Arofo Masiñey.
Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given his Ruach ha-Kodesh to you.
9 Aa ty amy fifampirañetañe longo, tsy ipaia’ areo sokireñe, ie hohoen’ Añahare hifampikoko;
But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,
10 naho toe anoe’ areo amo hene longo e Makedoniao. Fe osihe’ay ry longo te hitolom-pitomambao,
for indeed you do it toward all the brothers who are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, that you abound more and more;
11 hinozoha’areo fañavelo am-pianjiñañe, songa manao ty tolon-draha’e naho mitoloñe am-pità’e amy nitoroa’aiy,
and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you;
12 hañavelo an-kavantañañe amo alafe’eo naho tsy hipay inoñ’inoñe.
that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
13 Aa tsy teako ho bahimo nahareo, ry longo, ty amo miròtseo, hera hihontoke manahake o ila’e tsy aman-ko tamàeñeo.
But we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you do not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.
14 Aa kanao atokisantika te nivilasy t’Iesoà vaho nitroatse, le izay ty hindesen’ Añahare mindre ama’e ze mirotse am’ Iesoà ao.
For if we believe that Yeshua died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Yeshua.
15 Aa hoe ty fivola’ay ama’ areo ty amy tsara’ i Talèy, te tsy hiaolo o mirotseo tika mbe mañente ami’ty fitotsaha’ i Talè,
For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left to the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.
16 fa i Talè vata’e ro hizotso hirik’ andindìñe ey an-koike, am-piarañanañan-talèn’ anjely, naho amy antsivan’ Añaharey; naho hitroatse hey ze nivetrake amy Norizañey ao,
For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's shofar. The dead in Messiah will rise first,
17 vaho ho rambeseñe mb’amo rahoñeo mb’eo tika mbe veloñe hifanampe am’iereo an-drahoñe ey, hifanalaka amy Talè amy tiokey. Le ho nainai’e amy Talè ao tikañe.
then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.
18 Aa le mifañohòa amy tsara zay.
Therefore comfort one another with these words.
