1 Thessalonians 1

English Standard Version

from Crossway
1 Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace. (Ac 15:22; Ac 17:1; Ro 1:7; 2Co 1:19; 2Th 1:1; 1Pe 5:12) 2 We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly[1] mentioning you in our prayers, (Ro 1:8; Ro 1:9; Eph 5:20; 1Th 2:13; 2Ti 1:3) 3 remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. (Joh 6:29; Ro 8:25; Ro 15:4; Ga 1:4; Ga 5:6; Col 1:4; 2Th 1:3; 2Th 1:11; 1Ti 1:14; Heb 6:10; Jas 2:22; Re 2:19) 4 For we know, brothers[2] loved by God, that he has chosen you, (2Th 2:13; 2Pe 1:10) 5 because our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake. (Ac 20:18; 1Co 2:4; 2Co 6:6; Col 2:2; 1Th 2:10; 2Th 2:14; 2Th 3:7; Heb 2:3) 6 And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you received the word in much affliction, with the joy of the Holy Spirit, (Mt 5:12; Ac 13:52; Ac 17:5; 1Co 4:16; 1Co 11:1; Ga 5:22; 1Th 2:14; 2Th 3:7; 2Th 3:9) 7 so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. 8 For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything. (Ro 1:8; Ro 10:18; Ro 16:19; 2Th 1:4; 2Th 3:1) 9 For they themselves report concerning us the kind of reception we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, (Joh 17:3; Ac 14:15; 1Co 12:2; Ga 4:8; 1Th 2:1) 10 and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus who delivers us from the wrath to come. (Mt 3:7; Ac 1:11; Ac 2:24; Ro 5:9; 1Co 1:7; Col 1:13; 1Th 2:16; 1Th 4:16; 1Th 5:9; 2Th 1:10)

1 Pavel a Silván a Timoteus církvi Tessalonicenských v Bohu Otci a v Pánu Ježíši Kristu: Milost vám a pokoj od Boha Otce našeho a Pána Jezukrista. 2 Díky činíme Bohu vždycky ze všech vás, zmínku činíce o vás na modlitbách našich, 3 Bez přestání pamatujíce na skutek víry vaší, a na práci svaté lásky, a na trpělivost naděje Pána našeho Jezukrista, před Bohem a Otcem naším, 4 Vědouce, bratří Bohu milí, o vyvolení vašem. 5 Nebo evangelium naše k vám nezáleželo toliko v slovu, ale i v moci, i v Duchu svatém, a v jistotě mnohé, jakož víte, jací jsme byli mezi vámi a to pro vás. 6 A vy následovníci naši i Páně učiněni jste, přijavše slovo jeho ve mnohé úzkosti, s radostí Ducha svatého, 7 Takže jste učiněni příklad dobrý všem věřícím v Macedonii a v Achaii. 8 Nebo od vás rozhlásilo se slovo Páně netoliko v Macedonii a v Achaii, ale i na všelikém místě víra vaše, kteráž jest v Boha, roznesla se, takže již nepotřebí nám o tom nic mluviti. 9 Oniť zajisté sami o nás vyznávají, jaký byl příchod náš k vám a kterak jste se obrátili k Bohu od modloslužby, abyste sloužili Bohu živému a pravému, 10 A očekávali Syna jeho s nebe, kteréhož jest vzkřísil z mrtvých, totiž Ježíše, kterýž vysvobodil nás od hněvu budoucího.
