51 Thessalonians 5

1But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:1

2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:2

3For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail on a woman with child; and they shall not escape.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:3

4But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:4

5You are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:5

6Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:6

7For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:7

8But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:8

9For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,Select 1 Thessalonians 5:9

10Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:10

11Why comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also you do.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:11

12And we beseech you, brothers, to know them which labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;Select 1 Thessalonians 5:12

13And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake. And be at peace among yourselves.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:13

14Now we exhort you, brothers, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:14

15See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:15

16Rejoice ever more.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:16

17Pray without ceasing.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:17

18In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:18

19Quench not the Spirit.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:19

20Despise not prophesyings.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:20

21Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:21

22Abstain from all appearance of evil.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:22

23And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:23

24Faithful is he that calls you, who also will do it.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:24

25Brothers, pray for us.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:25

26Greet all the brothers with an holy kiss.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:26

27I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the holy brothers.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:27

28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.Select 1 Thessalonians 5:28
