II Tesaloniczan 3
1 Na ostatek, bracia! módlcie się za nas, aby się słowo Pańskie szerzyło i rozsławiało, jako i u was;
As for the other matters, [our] fellow believers, pray for us that more and more [people will] hear [PRS] our message [about our] Lord [Jesus]. Pray that they will believe this message, as you [have done].
2 I abyśmy byli wyrwani od niezbędnych i złych ludzi; albowiem nie wszystkich jest wiara.
Pray also for us that we will be rescued {that God will rescue us} from those very perverse/evil people [here] who [cause us to suffer. Pray like that] because [they and many others] refuse to believe [LIT] [this message].
3 Aleć wierny jest Pan, który was utwierdzi i strzec będzie od złego.
[Remember that our] Lord [Jesus] is trustworthy! [So we are sure that] he will cause you to continue to be steadfast. [We are also sure that] he will protect you from [Satan], the evil one (OR, from evil).
4 A ufamy w Panu o was, iż to, co wam rozkazujemy, i czynicie i czynić będziecie.
[Because of your close relationship with our] Lord [Jesus], we are confident that you are obeying what we have commanded you, and we are confident that you will obey what we are commanding [you in this letter].
5 A Pan niech sprawuje serca wasze ku miłości Bożej i ku cierpliwemu oczekiwaniu Chrystusa.
[We pray that our] Lord [Jesus] would enable you to continue [knowing] that God loves you. [We pray] also that Christ will cause you to continue [being] steadfast (OR, being steadfast as he [was steadfast]).
6 A rozkazujemy wam, bracia! w imieniu Pana naszego, Jezusa Chrystusa, abyście się odłączyli od każdego brata nieporządnie chodzącego, a nie według podanej nauki, którą wziął od nas.
[Our] fellow believers, we command you, with the authority [MTY] that our Lord Jesus Christ [has given to us], that you stop associating with every fellow believer who is lazy and refuses to work. That is, you must stay away from those who are not [conducting their lives] in the manner that we taught you.
7 Albowiem sami wiecie, jako nas potrzeba naśladować, ponieważeśmy nie żyli między wami nieporządnie;
[We tell you this] because you yourselves know that you should [behave] like we [behaved]. We (did not just sit [around] without working/were never lazy) [while we were living] among you.
8 Aniśmy darmo chleba jedli u kogo, ale z pracą i z kłopotem we dnie i w nocy robiąc, abyśmy nikomu z was ciężkimi nie byli;
Specifically, we did not eat anyone’s food if we did not pay [that person] for it. Instead, we worked very hard ([to support ourselves/to earn the money to buy what we needed]). We worked hard [DOU] during the day and during the night, in order that we would not have to depend on any of you [to supply what we needed].
9 Nie iżbyśmy tej mocy nie mieli, ale żebyśmy wam sami siebie za przykład podali, abyście nas naśladowali.
We have always had the right [to depend on you for money, but instead we worked hard in order to make ourselves] examples for you, in order that you should behave like we behave.
10 Albowiem gdyśmy byli u was, tośmy wam rozkazali, że jeźli kto nie chce robić, niechajże też nie je.
Remember that when we were [there] with you, we kept commanding you that if any [fellow believer] refuses to work, [you should not give] him food to eat.
11 Bo słyszymy, iż niektórzy między wami nieporządnie chodzą, nic nie robiąc, ale się niepotrzebnemi rzeczami bawiąc.
[We are commanding the same thing] again now, because someone has told us that some of you are lazy and not working at all, just interfering [with what other people are doing]!
12 Przetoż takowym rozkazujemy i napominamy ich przez Pana naszego, Jezusa Chrystusa, aby w pokoju robiąc, swój własny chleb jedli.
We command those fellow believers who are not working, and urge [them] by the authority [MTY] of our Lord Jesus Christ, that they settle down and (support themselves by working/work to earn money to buy what they need).
13 A wy, bracia! nie słabiejcie, dobrze czyniąc.
Fellow believers! Do not ever get tired of doing what is right!
14 A jeźli kto jest nieposłuszny słowu naszemu przez list pisanemu, tego naznaczcie, a nie mieszajcie się z nim, aby się zawstydził;
If any [fellow believer refuses to work] and does not obey what I have written in this letter, ([publicly] identify that person/tell the congregation what that person is doing). Then do not associate with him, in order that he may become ashamed.
15 Wszakże nie miejcie go za nieprzyjaciela, ale napominajcie jako brata.
Do not think of him as though he was [your] enemy; instead, warn him as [you would warn your other] fellow believers.
16 A sam Pan pokoju niech wam da pokój zawsze i wszelkim sposobem. Pan niech będzie z wami wszystkimi.
[I pray that our] Lord [Jesus] himself, who [gives inner] peace [to his people], will give [inner] peace to you always (and in every situation/whatever happens). 2 Thessalonians 3:16b-18 I [pray that our] Lord [Jesus will continue to] help you all.
17 Pozdrowienie ręką moją Pawłową, co jest znakiem w każdym liście; tak piszę.
Now, having taken the pen from my scribe, I, Paul, am sending this greeting to you as I write this myself [SYN]. I do this in all my letters in order that you may know that it is truly I who have sent this letter. This is how I always end my letters.
18 Łaska Pana naszego, Jezusa Chrystusa, niech będzie z wami wszystkimi. Amen.
I pray that our Lord Jesus Christ will continue to act kindly to you all.
