帖撒羅尼迦前書 1:1-10

1保羅西拉提摩太寫信給帖撒羅尼迦屬於父上帝和主耶穌基督的教會。

願恩典和平安歸給你們!

信徒的榜樣

2我們常常為你們眾人感謝上帝,為你們禱告, 3在我們的父上帝面前不斷地想到你們因信我們主耶穌基督而做的工作、因愛祂而受的勞苦和因祂所賜的盼望而激發的忍耐。

4上帝所愛的弟兄姊妹,我們知道上帝揀選了你們, 5因為我們傳福音給你們不只是靠言語,也靠上帝的能力、聖靈的同在和充分的確據。你們也知道,我們為了你們的緣故怎樣在你們中間行事為人。 6你們效法了我們和我們的主,儘管深受苦難,仍然懷著聖靈所賜的喜樂領受真道, 7成了馬其頓亞該亞所有信徒的榜樣。 8主的道從你們那裡不僅傳到了馬其頓亞該亞,還傳到了其他各地,你們對上帝的信心也廣為人知,我們無須再多說什麼。 9因為人們都在傳講你們如何接待我們,如何離棄偶像歸向上帝,事奉又真又活的上帝, 10等候祂的兒子從天降臨,就是祂使之從死裡復活、救我們脫離將來可怕審判1·10 可怕審判」希臘文是「烈怒」。的耶穌。

King James Version

1 Thessalonians 1:1-10

1Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers; 3Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father; 4Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God. 5For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake. 6And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost: 7So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. 8For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing. 9For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God; 10And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
