1Th 1 Thessalonians, chapter First Epistle to the Thessalonians, chapter 4
Furthermore then we beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) you, brethren, and exhort [you] by the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation], that as you2f have received of us how you2f ought to walk and to please God-The Father, [so] you2f would abound more and more.
For you2f know what commandments we gave you by the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation].
For this is the will of God-The Father, [even] your sanctification, that you2f should abstain from fornication:
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
Not in the lust of concupiscence (strong lust; passion), even as the Goyim [Gentiles] which know not God-The Father:
That no [man] go beyond and defraud his brother in [any] matter: because that the Lord - Kurios [is] the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
For God-The Father has not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
He therefore that despises, despises not man, but God-The Father, who has also given unto us his holy Spirit [Ruach].
But as touching brotherly love you2f need not that I write unto you: for you2f yourselves are taught of God-The Father to love one another.
And indeed you2f do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia [extended land]: but we beseech (to call upon; appeal; beg) you, brethren, that you2f increase more and more;
And that you2f study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
That you2f may walk honestly toward them that are without, and [that] you2f may have lack of nothing.
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that you2f sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Yeshua [God is Salvation] died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Yeshua [God is Salvation] will God-The Father bring with him.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord - Kurios, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord - Kurios shall not precede them which are asleep.
For the Lord - Kurios himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God-The Father: and the dead in Moshiach [Messiah] shall rise first:
Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord - Kurios in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord - Kurios.
For what reason comfort one another with these words.
