1For ye know yourselves, brethren, our entering in which [we had] to you, that it has not been in vain;
1Zhanen mishto tume, amare phral, ke chi geliam tumende intaino.
2but, having suffered before and been insulted, even as ye know, in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the glad tidings of God with much earnest striving.
2Tume zhanen ke chinuisardiam ai vunzhe vutisardia ame ando Filipi mai anglal sar te aresas tumende ande Thesalonika. Numa O Del dia ame e zor te anas tumenge e lashi viasta kai avel lestar, marka ke but roden te rimon.
3For our exhortation [was] not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile;
3Ke amaro divano pa Del kai phenas le manushenge, nai xoxamlo vai bi vuzho, ai chi rodas te shubisaras kanikas.
4but even as we have been approved of God to have the glad tidings entrusted to us, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who proves our hearts.
4Numa das duma sagda sar O Del mangel, ke wo manglia ai dia ame peski lashi viasta te ingeras la. Ame chi rodas te avas drazhi le manushenge, numa le Devleske, wo kai lel sama le ginduria amare ileske.
5For we have not at any time been [among you] with flattering discourse, even as ye know, nor with a pretext for covetousness, God [is] witness;
5Tume zhanen ke shoxar chi kerdiam barimata ande amaro divano, ai vi chi garadiam ande amare vorbi ke mangas te nirisaras love, ai O Del zhanel!
6nor seeking glory from men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have been a charge as Christ's apostles;
6Chi rodiam te luvudil ame khonik, chi anda tumende, ai chi andal kolaver, ai te mangliamas sai thodiamas tume te le amari zor sar slugi le Kristoske.
7but have been gentle in the midst of you, as a nurse would cherish her own children.
7Numa lashe samas kana samas tumende, lashe sar iek dei kai lel sama peske glatendar.
8Thus, yearning over you, we had found our delight in having imparted to you not only the glad tidings of God, but our own lives also, because ye had become beloved of us.
8Pala amari dragostia tumenge, gata samas te das tume na ferdi e lashi viasta kai avel katar O Del numa vi amaro traio. Ke tume kadia de drago sanas amenge.
9For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, not to be chargeable to any one of you, we have preached to you the glad tidings of God.
9Tume seren tume, amare phral, sar ame kerdiam buchi ai samas defial chine, ame kerdiam buchi vi adiese ai vi e riate, saxke te na las pe love chi ieskeske anda tumende, phendiam tumenge e lashi viasta kai avel katar O Del.
10*Ye* [are] witnesses, and God, how piously and righteously and blamelessly we have conducted ourselves with you that believe:
10Tume san amare marturia, ai vi O Del si amaro marturo: amaro traio mashkar tumende, tume kai pachan tume ando Del vuzho sas, vorta, ai bi doshako.
11as ye know how, as a father his own children, we used to exhort each one of you, and comfort and testify,
11Tume zhanen ke kerdiam swakonesa anda tumende sar kerel iek dat peske shavensa.
12that ye should walk worthy of God, who calls you to his own kingdom and glory.
12Ame diam tume zor ando pachamos, ai raduisardiam tumare ile, ame mangliam tumendar sa amare ilesa te traiin iek traio kai si drago le Devleske, wo kai akhardia tume te aven ande lesko rhaio ai ande lesko luvudimos.
13And for this cause we also give thanks to God unceasingly that, having received [the] word of [the] report of God by us, ye accepted, not men's word, but, even as it is truly, God's word, which also works in you who believe.
13Ame naisisaras le Devleske sagda anda iek kolaver diela, kana andian tumenge E Vorba le Devleski tume ashundian late, ai premisardian la na sar ek vorba kai avel katar o manush numa sar ek Vorba kai avel katar O Del, ai chaches si E Vorba le Devleski, ai e Vorba kerel buchi ande tumende kai pachan tume ande late.
14For *ye*, brethren, have become imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus; for *ye* also have suffered the same things of your own countrymen as also *they* of the Jews,
14Tume murhe phral, kerdiliam tumensa sa kodola dieli kai kerdilia le Devleske khangeriange kai si ande Judea, kodole narodoske kai dinepe le Kristoske. Tume sanas chinuime katar o narodo kai si ande tumaro them sa sar won sas chinuime katar le Zhiduvuria.
15who have both slain the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and have driven us out by persecution, and do not please God, and [are] against all men,
15Won kai mudarde le Jesus Kristos ai le profeton, ai kai chinuisarde amen, won chi traiin sar mangel O Del ai won si duzhmaia sa le manushenge.
16forbidding us to speak to the nations that they may be saved, that they may fill up their sins always: but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost.
16Won thon zor te aterdiaren ame te ingeras ka kodola kai Nai Zhiduvuria, e Vorba kai anel lenge o skepimos. Kado si lengo mai baro bezex kai thode opral pa penge bezexa kai kerde mai anglal, numa e xoli le Devleski sa woi aresli len.
17But we, brethren, having been bereaved of you and separated for a little moment in person, not in heart, have used more abundant diligence to see your face with much desire;
17Numa ame, amare phral, de sar geliamtar tumendar pe xantsi vriama, amaro stato nai tumensa, numa tume ande amare ile san, amenge si anda tumende ai sa amare ilesa mangas te mai dikhas tume!
18wherefore we have desired to come to you, even I Paul, both once and twice, and Satan has hindered us.
18Ame mangliam te avas tumende, me, o Pavlo zumadem te kerav kodia butivar, numa o beng chi meklia ame.
19For what [is] our hope, or joy, or crown of boasting? [are] not *ye* also before our Lord Jesus at his coming?
19Tume, kai san amaro pachamos, raduimos, ai o semno ke nirisarasa, ai kai ame sai luvudisavas angla amaro Devles Jesus Kristo kana avela palpale.
20for ye are our glory and joy.
20Tume san amaro luvudimos ai amaro raduimos!
