PAUL, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

2 Je kin poden danke Kot ki komail karoj o tamataman kin komail ni at kapakap akan.

We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;

3 O je kin tamatamanda omail wiawia kan ni pojon, o omail dodok ni limpok, o omail kanonama ni kaporoporeki atail Kaun Iejuj Krijtuj janjal on Kot o Jam atail.

Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

4 Pwe ri ai kan o kompoke pan Kot akan, je aja duen omail lipilipil re a,

Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.

5 Pwe at ronamau lel on komail er, kaidin nin lokaia ta, a pil ni manaman o Nen jaraui, o ni kamelelepa kaualap, pwe komail aja jon en aramaj da kit re omail pweki komail.

For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

6 A komail ale janer kit o jan Kaun o, ni omail aleer majan o ni kamekam kaualap o ni peren en Nen jaraui.

And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:

7 Komail wialar kilel en jaulan karoj mi Majetonien o Akaia.

So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.

8 Pwe jan re omail majan en Kaun o kaparaparalar, kaidin nan Majetonien o Akaia eta, pwe pil waja karoj omail pojon Kot lokila ia; ari, jolar me je pan inda.

For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.

9 Pwe pein irail kaire kin kit, duen at pwaralan komail me pwaida, o duen omail wuki on Kot jan dikedik en ani kan, pwen papan Kot, me udan maur o melel.

For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;

10 O auiaui japwilim a Ol jan nanlan, me a kotin kaiajada jan ren me melar akan, Iejuj, me kotin dore kitail jan ni onion en Kot, me pan janjaldo.

And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
