| 1st-Thessalonians 5:1 | But about the times and their order, my brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you. | But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that aught be written unto you. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:2 | For you yourselves have the knowledge that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. | For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:3 | When they say, There is peace and no danger, then sudden destruction will come on them, as birth-pains on a woman with child; and they will not be able to get away from it. | When they are saying, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall in no wise escape. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:4 | But you, my brothers, are not in the dark, for that day to overtake you like a thief: | But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief: |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:5 | For you are all sons of light and of the day: we are not of the night or of the dark. | for ye are all sons of light, and sons of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:6 | So then, let us not take our rest as the others do, but let us be self-controlled and awake. | so then let us not sleep, as do the rest, but let us watch and be sober. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:7 | For those who are sleeping do so in the night; and those who are the worse for drink are so in the night; | For they that sleep sleep in the night: and they that are drunken are drunken in the night. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:8 | But let us, who are of the day, be serious, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and on our heads, the hope of salvation. | But let us, since we are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the hope of salvation. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:9 | For God's purpose for us is not wrath, but salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, | For God appointed us not into wrath, but unto the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:10 | Who was put to death for us, so that, awake or sleeping, we may have a part in his life. | who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:11 | So then, go on comforting and building up one another, as you have been doing. | Wherefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as also ye do. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:12 | But we make this request to you, my brothers: give attention to those who are working among you, who are over you in the Lord to keep order among you; | But we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:13 | And have a high opinion of them in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves. | and to esteem them exceeding highly in love for their work's sake. Be at peace among yourselves. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:14 | And our desire is that you will keep control over those whose lives are not well ordered, giving comfort to the feeble-hearted, supporting those with little strength, and putting up with much from all. | And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the fainthearted, support the weak, be longsuffering toward all. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:15 | Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all. | See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:16 | Have joy at all times. | Rejoice always; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:17 | Keep on with your prayers. | pray without ceasing; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:18 | In everything give praise: for this is the purpose of God in Christ Jesus for you. | in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:19 | Do not put out the light of the Spirit; | Quench not the Spirit; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:20 | Do not make little of the words of the prophets; | despise not prophesyings; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:21 | Let all things be tested; keep to what is good; | prove all things; hold fast that which is good; |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:22 | Keep from every form of evil. | abstain from every form of evil. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:23 | And may the God of peace himself make you holy in every way; and may your spirit and soul and body be free from all sin at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. | And the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved entire, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:24 | God, by whom you have been marked out in his purpose, is unchanging and will make it complete. | Faithful is he that calleth you, who will also do it. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:25 | Brothers, keep us in mind in your prayers. | Brethren, pray for us. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:26 | Give all the brothers a holy kiss. | Salute all the brethren with a holy kiss. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:27 | I give orders in the name of the Lord that all the brothers are to be present at the reading of this letter. | I adjure you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the brethren. |
| 1st-Thessalonians 5:28 | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. | The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. |
