1 Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord - Kurios may have [free] course, and be glorified, even as [it is] with you:

2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all [men] have not faith.

3 But the Lord - Kurios is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep [you] from evil.

4 And we have confidence in the Lord - Kurios touching you, that you2f both do and will do the things which we command you.

5 And the Lord - Kurios direct your hearts into the love of God-The Father, and into the patient waiting for Moshiach [Messiah].

6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], that you2f withdraw yourselves from every brother that walks disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.

7 For yourselves know how you2f ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

8 Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nothing; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:

9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an example unto you to follow us.

10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.

12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah], that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.

13 But you2f, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

14 And if any man obey not our word by this Epistle (important or formal letter), note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.

15 Yet count [him] not as an enemy, but admonish [him] as a brother.

16 Now the Lord - Kurios of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord - Kurios [be] with you all.

17 The Greeting of Sha’ul [desired] with my own hand, which is the token in every Epistle (important or formal letter): so I write.

18 The grace of our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] [be] with you all. Amen. <The second Epistle (important or formal letter) to the Thessalonians [victory of falsity] was written from Athens [uncertainty].>
