1For yourselves, brethren, know our entering in unto you, that it hath not been found vain:
1ܘܐܢܬܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܚܝ ܕܡܥܠܢܢ ܕܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܤܪܝܩܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܀
2but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as ye know, at Philippi, we waxed bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God in much conflict.
2ܐܠܐ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܚܫܢܢ ܘܐܨܛܥܪܢܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܝܕܥܝܬܘܢ ܒܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܒܐܓܘܢܐ ܪܒܐ ܡܠܠܢ ܥܡܟܘܢ ܒܦܪܗܤܝܐ ܕܐܠܗܢ ܤܒܪܬܗ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀
3For our exhortation [is] not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
3ܒܘܝܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܡܢ ܛܥܝܘܬܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܡܢ ܛܢܦܘܬܐ ܐܦܠܐ ܒܢܟܠܐ ܀
4but even as we have been approved of God to be intrusted with the gospel, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God who proveth our hearts.
4ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܒܩܝܢܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܬܬܗܝܡܢ ܤܒܪܬܗ ܗܟܢܐ ܡܡܠܠܝܢܢ ܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܠܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܢܫܦܪ ܐܠܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܒܩܐ ܠܒܘܬܢ ܀
5For neither at any time were we found using words of flattery, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness, God is witness;
5ܐܦܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܡܬܘܡ ܐܬܚܫܚܢ ܒܡܡܠܠܐ ܫܕܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܒܥܠܬܐ ܕܝܥܢܘܬܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܤܗܕ ܀
6nor seeking glory of men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
6ܘܠܐ ܒܥܝܢ ܫܘܒܚܐ ܡܢ ܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܠܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܘܠܐ ܡܢ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܟܕ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܝܩܝܪܐ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܫܠܝܚܐ ܕܡܫܝܚܐ ܀
7But we were gentle in the midst of you, as when a nurse cherisheth her own children:
7ܐܠܐ ܗܘܝܢ ܒܝܢܬܟܘܢ ܡܟܝܟܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܡܪܒܝܢܝܬܐ ܕܡܚܒܒܐ ܒܢܝܗ ܀
8even so, being affectionately desirous of you, we were well pleased to impart unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were become very dear to us.
8ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܡܚܒܒܝܢܢ ܘܡܤܘܚܝܢܢ ܠܡܬܠ ܠܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܤܒܪܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܦ ܢܦܫܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܚܒܝܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܀
9For ye remember, brethren, our labor and travail: working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
9ܥܗܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܐܚܝܢ ܕܠܐܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܥܡܠܝܢ ܒܥܒܕ ܐܝܕܝܢ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܘܒܐܝܡܡܐ ܕܥܠ ܚܕ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܢܐܩܪ ܀
10Ye are witnesses, and God [also], how holily and righteously and unblameably we behaved ourselves toward you that believe:
10ܐܢܬܘܢ ܤܗܕܝܢ ܘܐܠܗܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܐܟܪܙܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܤܒܪܬܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܟܝܐܝܬ ܘܟܐܢܐܝܬ ܘܕܠܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܠܘܬ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܀
11as ye know how we [dealt with] each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging [you], and testifying,
11ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܡܢ ܚܕ ܚܕ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܐܒܐ ܡܢ ܒܢܘܗܝ ܒܥܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܡܠܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܒܠܒܟܘܢ ܘܡܤܗܕܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܀
12to the end that ye should walk worthily of God, who calleth you into his own kingdom and glory.
12ܕܬܗܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܕܝܐܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܩܪܟܘܢ ܠܡܠܟܘܬܗ ܘܠܫܘܒܚܗ ܀
13And for this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that, when ye received from us the word of the message, [even the word] of God, ye accepted [it] not [as] the word of men, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also worketh in you that believe.
13ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܦ ܚܢܢ ܡܘܕܝܢܢ ܐܡܝܢܐܝܬ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܩܒܠܬܘܢ ܡܢܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܒܢܝܢܫܐ ܩܒܠܬܘܢܗ ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܗܝ ܒܥܒܕܐ ܡܤܬܥܪܐ ܒܟܘܢ ܒܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܗܝܡܢܝܢ ܀
14For ye, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus: for ye also suffered the same things of your own countrymen, even as they did of the Jews;
14ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܝ ܐܬܕܡܝܬܘܢ ܠܥܕܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܒܝܗܘܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܕܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܗܟܢ ܤܝܒܪܬܘܢ ܐܦ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܡܢ ܒܢܝ ܫܪܒܬܟܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܗܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܀
15who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove out us, and pleased not God, and are contrary to all men;
15ܗܢܘܢ ܕܠܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܩܛܠܘ ܘܠܢܒܝܐ ܕܡܢܗܘܢ ܘܠܢ ܪܕܦܘ ܘܠܐܠܗܐ ܠܐ ܫܦܪܝܢ ܘܥܒܝܕܝܢ ܤܩܘܒܠܐ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܀
16forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved; to fill up their sins always: but the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.
16ܕܟܠܝܢ ܠܢ ܕܢܡܠܠ ܥܡ ܥܡܡܐ ܕܢܚܘܢ ܠܡܫܠܡܘ ܚܛܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܡܛܝ ܕܝܢ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܪܘܓܙܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܚܪܬܐ ܀
17But we, brethren, being bereaved of you for a short season, in presence not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face with great desire:
17ܚܢܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܝܬܡܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܙܒܢܐ ܕܫܥܬܐ ܒܐܦܝܢ ܘܠܐ ܒܠܒܢ ܘܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܐܬܚܦܛܢ ܠܡܚܙܐ ܐܦܝܟܘܢ ܒܚܘܒܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܀
18because we would fain have come unto you, I Paul once and again; and Satan hindered us.
18ܘܨܒܝܢ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܠܘܬܟܘܢ ܐܢܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܚܕܐ ܙܒܢ ܘܬܪܬܝܢ ܘܥܘܟܢܝ ܤܛܢܐ ܀
19For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of glorying? Are not even ye, before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
19ܐܝܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܤܒܪܢ ܘܚܕܘܬܢ ܘܟܠܝܠܐ ܕܫܘܒܗܪܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܩܕܡ ܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܒܡܐܬܝܬܗ ܀
20For ye are our glory and our joy.
20ܐܢܬܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܢ ܘܚܕܘܬܢ ܀
