Berean Standard Bible
Finally, brethren
, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have
free
course,
and be glorified
, even
as it is
with you :
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 .
And that we may be delivered from unreasonable
and
wicked men :
for all
men
have
not faith.
And pray
that we may be delivered from wicked and
evil
men ;
for not everyone
holds
to
the
faith.
But the Lord is faithful, who
shall
stablish
you ,
and keep
you from evil.
But the Lord is faithful, and
He
will
strengthen
you and guard
you from the
evil one
.
And we have confidence in the Lord touching
you,
that ye
both
do
and will do the
things
which
we command you
.
And we have confidence in the Lord that you
are
doing
and will continue
to
do what
we command.
And
the Lord direct your hearts into the
love of
God,
and into
the
patient
waiting
for
Christ
.
May
the Lord direct your hearts into God’s
love and Christ’s
perseverance
.
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
he
received of
us.
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.
For yourselves know how ye
ought to follow
us :
for
we behaved
not ourselves
disorderly
among you ;
For you
yourselves know how you
ought to imitate
us ,
because
we were
not undisciplined
among you ,
Neither
did we eat any
man's
bread
for nought;
but
wrought
with
labour
and travail
night and day ,
that we might
not be chargeable
to any of 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 .
Not because
we have
not
power
, but to make
ourselves an ensample
unto
you to follow
us
.
Not that
we lack
this
right
, but we
wanted
to offer
ourselves as
an example
for
you to imitate
.
For even when
we were with you, this
we commanded
you ,
that
if any
would
not
work, neither
should
he eat.
For even while
we were with you, we gave
you this
command:
“
If anyone
is
unwilling
to
work, he shall
not
eat. ”
For
we hear that there
are
some which
walk
among
you disorderly,
working
not
at
all,
but
are busybodies.
Yet
we hear that some of
you are leading
undisciplined
lives
and
accomplishing
nothing
but
being
busybodies.
Now
them
that
are
such
we command and exhort
by our Lord Jesus Christ ,
that
with
quietness
they
work,
and
eat
their own bread
.
We command and urge
such
people
by our Lord Jesus Christ to
begin
working
quietly
to
earn
their own living
.
But ye
, brethren
, be
not weary in well doing.
But as
for
you
, brothers
, do
not grow
weary in well -
doing.
And
if
any
man
obey
not
our
word
by
this
epistle,
note that
man,
and
have no
company
with him, that he may be ashamed.
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.
Yet count
him
not as an enemy, but admonish
him as a brother.
Yet do
not regard
him
as an enemy, but warn
him as a brother.
Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always
by
all means
. The Lord be with you
all.
Now may
the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at
all times
and
in
every
way
. The Lord be with all of
you
.
The
salutation
of
Paul
with
mine
own hand ,
which
is the
token
in every epistle:
so
I write.
This
greeting
is
in
my
own hand —Paul.
This
is my
mark
in every letter;
it
is
the
way
I write.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
all .
Amen
.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of
you
.
