Finally, brothers
, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may spread
quickly
and be held
in
honor
, just
as it was
with you .
Finally, brethren
, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run
and be glorified
, even
as also
`
it is'
with you ;
And pray
that we may be delivered from wicked
and evil men; for not everyone
holds
to
the
faith.
and that we may be delivered from unreasonable
and evil men; for all
have
not faith.
But the Lord is faithful, and
He
will
strengthen
you and guard you from the evil one.
But the Lord is faithful, who
shall
establish
you ,
and guard you from the evil `
one '
.
And we have confidence in the Lord that
you are
doing
and will continue
to
do what
we command.
And we have confidence in the Lord touching
you ,
that
ye
both
do
and will do the
things
which
we command.
May
the Lord direct your hearts into God’s
love and Christ’s
perseverance
.
And
the Lord direct your hearts into the
love of
God,
and into
the
patience
of
Christ
.
Now we command you, brothers
, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to
keep
away
from any
brother who
leads
an
undisciplined
life
that is
not in
keeping
with
the tradition you
received from
us.
Now we command you, brethren
, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that
ye
withdraw
yourselves
from every
brother that walketh
disorderly,
and
not after
the tradition which
they
received of
us.
For you
yourselves know how you
ought to imitate us ,
because
we were
not undisciplined
among you ,
For yourselves know how ye
ought to imitate us :
for
we behaved
not ourselves
disorderly
among you ;
nor
did we eat anyone’s
food
without
paying
for it.
Instead
, in labor and toil
, we
worked
night and day so
that we would
not be
a
burden to
any of you .
neither
did we eat bread
for nought
at
any
man's
hand
, but
in labor and travail
, working
night and day ,
that we might
not burden any of you :
Not that
we lack
this
right, but we
wanted
to offer
ourselves as
an
example
for
you to
imitate.
not because
we have
not
the
right, but to make
ourselves and
ensample
unto
you ,
that
ye
should
imitate us
.
For even while
we were with you, we gave
you this
command:
“
If anyone
is
unwilling
to
work, he
shall
not
eat. ”
For even when
we were with you, this
we commanded
you ,
If any
will
not
work, neither
let
him
eat.
Yet
we hear that
some
of you are
leading
undisciplined
lives
and
accomplishing
nothing
but being
busybodies.
For
we hear of some
that
walk
among
you disorderly,
that
work
not
at
all,
but are
busybodies.
We command and urge
such
people
by
our
Lord Jesus Christ to
begin
working
quietly
to
earn
their own living
.
Now
them
that
are
such
we command and exhort
in
the
Lord Jesus Christ ,
that
with
quietness
they
work,
and
eat
their own bread
.
But as
for
you
, brothers
, do
not grow
weary in well-doing.
But ye
, brethren
, be
not weary in well-doing.
Take
note
of
anyone
who
does
not obey
the
instructions
we
have
given
in
this letter.
Do
not
associate
with him, so
that he may be ashamed.
And
if
any
man
obeyeth
not our
word
by
this epistle,
note
that
man,
that
ye
have
no
company
with him, to
the
end
that he may be ashamed.
Yet do
not
regard
him as an enemy, but warn
him as a brother.
And
`
yet '
count
him not
as an enemy, but admonish
him as a brother.
Now may
the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times and
in every
way
. The Lord be with all
of
you.
Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all
ways
. The Lord be with you all
.
This
greeting
is
in
my
own hand —Paul.
This
is my
mark
in every letter;
it
is
the
way
I write.
The
salutation
of
me
Paul
with
mine
own hand ,
which
is the
token
in every epistle:
so
I write.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all
of
you.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all
.
