2 Thessalonians 3

2Th 3:1 For the rest, brothers, pray concerning us, that the Word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also it has with you,
2Th 3:2 and that we may be delivered from perverse and evil men. For faith is not in all men.
2Th 3:3 But the Lord is faithful who will establish and will guard you from the evil.
2Th 3:4 But we are persuaded in the Lord as to you, that whatever things we have commanded you, you both do and you will do.
2Th 3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ.
2Th 3:6 And we enjoin you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to draw yourselves back from every brother walking in a disorderly way, and not according to the teaching which you received from us.
2Th 3:7 For you yourselves know how it is right to act like us, because we were not disorderly among you;
2Th 3:8 nor did we eat bread from anyone as a gift, but by labor and toil, working night and day in order not to burden anyone of you.
2Th 3:9 Not that we do not have authority, but that we give ourselves as an example to you, for you to act like us.
2Th 3:10 For even when we were with you, we commanded this to you: If anyone does not desire to work, neither let him eat.
2Th 3:11 For we hear some are walking in a disorderly way among you, not working at all, but being busybodies.
2Th 3:12 And we command such and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that working with quietness, they may eat their own bread.
2Th 3:13 And you, brothers, do not lose heart in well doing.
2Th 3:14 But if anyone does not obey our Word through the letter, mark that one, and do not associate with him, that he be shamed.
2Th 3:15 But do not count him as one hostile, but warn him as a brother.
2Th 3:16 And may the Lord of peace Himself continually give peace to you in every way. The Lord be with all of you.
2Th 3:17 The greeting of Paul by my hand is the sign in every letter; so I write.
2Th 3:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

On this day…
