Finally,G3063 brothers,G80 prayG4336 for us, that the wordG3056 of the LordG2962 may haveG2192 free course,G5143 and be glorified,G1392 evenG2532 as it is with you:
2
And that we may be deliveredG4506 from unreasonableG824 and wickedG4190 men:G444 for allG3956 men have not faith.G4102
3
But the LordG2962 is faithful,G4103 whoG3739 shall establishG4741 you, and keepG5442 you from evil.G4190
4
And we have confidenceG3982 in the LordG2962 touchingG1909 you, that you bothG2532 doG4160 and will doG4160 the things whichG3739 we commandG3853 you.
5
And the LordG2962 directG2720 yourG5216 heartsG2588 intoG1519 the loveG26 of God,G2316 and intoG1519 the patientG5281 waiting for Christ.G5547
6
NowG1161 we commandG3853 you, brothers,G80 in the nameG3686 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ,G5547 that you withdrawG4724 yourselves from everyG3956 brotherG80 that walksG4043 disorderly,G814 and not afterG2596 the traditionG3862 whichG3739 he receivedG3880 of us.
7
For yourselvesG846 knowG1492 howG4459 you oughtG1163 to followG3401 us: for we behavedG812 not ourselves disorderlyG812 amongG1722 you;
8
NeitherG3761 did we eatG5315 anyG5100 man's breadG740 for nothing;G1432 but workedG2038 with laborG2873 and travailG3449 nightG3571 and day,G2250 that we might not be chargeableG1912 to anyG5100 of you:
9
Not becauseG3754 we haveG2192 not power,G1849 but to makeG1325 ourselvesG1438 an ensampleG5179 to you to followG3401 us.
10
For evenG2532 whenG3753 we were with you, thisG5124 we commandedG3853 you, that ifG1487 anyG1536 wouldG2309 not work,G2038 neitherG3366 should he eat.G2068
11
For we hearG191 that there are someG5100 which walkG4043 amongG1722 you disorderly,G814 workingG2038 not atG3367 all,G3367 but are busybodies.G4020
12
NowG1161 them that are suchG5108 we commandG3853 and exhortG3870 by our LordG2962 JesusG2424 Christ,G5547 that with quietnessG2271 they work,G2038 and eatG2068 their ownG1438 bread.G740
13
But you, brothers,G80 be not wearyG1573 in wellG2569 doing.G2569
14
And ifG1487 anyG5100 man obeyG5219 not our wordG3056 by thisG3588 letter,G1992 noteG4593 that man, and haveG2192 noG3361 companyG4874 with him, that he may be ashamed.G1788
15
YetG2532 countG2233 him not as an enemy,G2190 but admonishG3560 him as a brother.G80
16
NowG1161 the LordG2962 of peaceG1515 himselfG846 giveG1325 you peaceG1515 alwaysG1223 G3956 by allG3956 means.G5158 The LordG2962 be with you all.G3956

18
The graceG5485 of our LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 be with you all.G3956 Amen.G281 The second epistle to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.
