¹Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the assembly of Thessalonians in God [the] Father and [the] Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to you and peace.

¹Katar o Pavlo, o Silas, ai o Timote ka tume kai si ande khangeri ande Thesalonika, kai tume si le Devleske O Dat, ai ande le Devles Jesus Kristos o mishtimos ai e pacha te avel tumen dini katar O Del amaro Dat, ai le Devles Jesus Kristo.

²We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you at our prayers,

²Ame naisisaras sagda le Devleske anda tumende savorhende, ai das ame sagda goji tumende kana rhugisavas.

³remembering unceasingly your work of faith, and labour of love, and enduring constancy of hope, of our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

³Seras ame angla Del amaro Dat sar sikadian tumaro pachamos, ai sar tumari dragostia dia tume voia te keren buchi le Devleske, ai sar tumaro pachamos ando Jesus Kristo ankerel.

⁴knowing, brethren beloved by God, your election.

⁴Amare phral, ame zhanas ke O Del drago sas tumenge, ai alosardia tume te aven leske.

⁵For our glad tidings were not with you in word only, but also in power, and in [the] Holy Spirit, and in much assurance; even as ye know what we were among you for your sakes:

⁵Ke andiam tumenge e lashi viasta, na ferdi le vorbensa, numa la putierasa kai avel katar O Swunto Duxo. Ai o pachamos kai si amen ando kado chachimos kai avel katar e viasta. Tume zhanen sar traiisardiam mashkar tumende pe tumaro mishtimos.

⁶and *ye* became our imitators, and of the Lord, having accepted the word in much tribulation with joy of [the] Holy Spirit,

⁶Tume liam tume pala amende ai pala Kristo; chinuisardiam but, numa tume premisardian E Vorba le Devleski le raduimasa kai del O Swunto Duxo.

⁷so that ye became models to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia:

⁷No pe tumende sai len sama sa le phral kai si ande Macedonia ai ande Gretsia sar te traiin angla Del.

⁸for the word of the Lord sounded out from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith which [is] towards God has gone abroad, so that we have no need to say anything;

⁸E Vorba le Devleski tumendar avili, na ferdi ande Macedonia ai ande Gretsia, numa katar godi e viasta tumare pachamos ka ando Del ashundili. Ame chi mai trobul te mothas kanikaske.

⁹for they themselves relate concerning us what entering in we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God,

⁹Savorhe den duma pa kodia kai premisardian ame kana geliam tumende, ai kai meklian le ikoni te bolden tume karing O Del, saxke te keren buchi le Devleski le zhuvindeske ai le chacheske;

¹⁰and to await his Son from the heavens, whom he raised from among the dead, Jesus, our deliverer from the coming wrath.

¹⁰ai te azhukeren te avel lesko Shav anda rhaio, kai zhuvindisardia les andai martia, lesko Shav O Jesus Kristo, ai kai ankaladia ame avri anda xoli le Devleski kai si te avel.
