1For the rest, then, brethren, we beg you and exhort you in [the] Lord Jesus, even as ye have received from us how ye ought to walk and please God, even as ye also do walk, that ye would abound still more.
1ܡܟܝܠ ܐܚܝ ܒܥܝܢܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܘܡܬܟܫܦܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܕܐܝܟ ܕܩܒܠܬܘܢ ܡܢܢ ܐܝܟܢ ܘܠܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܬܗܠܟܘܢ ܘܬܫܦܪܘܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܕܝܬܝܪܐܝܬ ܬܘܤܦܘܢ ܀
2For ye know what charges we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
2ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܝܗܒܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܡܪܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܀
3For this is [the] will of God, [even] your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication;
3ܗܢܘ ܓܝܪ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܩܕܝܫܘܬܟܘܢ ܘܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܦܪܝܩܝܢ ܡܢ ܟܠ ܙܢܝܘܬܐ ܀
4that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour,
4ܘܢܗܘܐ ܝܕܥ ܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܠܡܩܢܐ ܡܐܢܗ ܒܩܕܝܫܘܬܐ ܘܒܐܝܩܪܐ ܀
5(not in passionate desire, even as the nations who know not God,)
5ܘܠܐ ܒܚܫܐ ܕܪܓܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ ܕܥܡܡܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܀
6not overstepping the rights of and wronging his brother in the matter, because the Lord [is] the avenger of all these things, even as we also told you before, and have fully testified.
6ܘܠܐ ܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܫܝܚܝܢ ܠܡܥܒܪ ܘܠܡܥܠܒ ܐܢܫ ܠܐܚܘܗܝ ܒܗܕܐ ܨܒܘܬܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܪܢ ܗܘ ܬܒܘܥܐ ܥܠ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܐܦ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܙܒܢܐ ܐܡܪܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܤܗܕܢ ܀
7For God has not called us to uncleanness, but in sanctification.
7ܠܐ ܓܝܪ ܩܪܟܘܢ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܛܢܦܘܬܐ ܐܠܐ ܠܩܕܝܫܘܬܐ ܀
8He therefore that [in this] disregards [his brother], disregards, not man, but God, who has given also his Holy Spirit to you.
8ܡܟܝܠ ܡܢ ܕܛܠܡ ܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܒܪܢܫܐ ܛܠܡ ܐܠܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܝܗܒ ܒܟܘܢ ܪܘܚܗ ܩܕܝܫܬܐ ܀
9Now concerning brotherly love ye have no need that we should write to you, for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
9ܥܠ ܚܘܒܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܐܚܐ ܠܐ ܤܢܝܩܝܬܘܢ ܠܡܟܬܒ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܓܝܪ ܩܢܘܡܟܘܢ ܡܠܦܐ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܕܬܚܒܘܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܀
10For also ye do this towards all the brethren in the whole of Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, to abound still more,
10ܐܦ ܥܒܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܗܟܢܐ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܚܐ ܕܒܟܠܗ ܡܩܕܘܢܝܐ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܐܚܝ ܕܬܬܝܬܪܘܢ ܀
11and to seek earnestly to be quiet and mind your own affairs, and work with your [own] hands, even as we charged you,
11ܘܬܬܚܦܛܘܢ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܫܠܝܢ ܘܥܢܝܢ ܒܤܘܥܪܢܝܟܘܢ ܘܗܘܝܬܘܢ ܦܠܚܝܢ ܒܐܝܕܝܟܘܢ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܕܦܩܕܢܟܘܢ ܀
12that ye may walk reputably towards those without, and may have need of no one.
12ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܡܗܠܟܝܢ ܒܐܤܟܡܐ ܠܘܬ ܒܪܝܐ ܘܥܠ ܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܬܤܬܢܩܘܢ ܀
13But we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are fallen asleep, to the end that ye be not grieved even as also the rest who have no hope.
13ܨܒܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܕܬܕܥܘܢ ܐܚܝ ܕܥܠ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܡܟܝܢ ܠܐ ܬܗܘܐ ܟܪܝܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܫܪܟܐ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܕܤܒܪܐ ܠܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܀
14For if we believe that Jesus has died and has risen again, so also God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep through Jesus.
14ܐܢ ܓܝܪ ܡܗܝܡܢܝܢܢ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܝܬ ܘܩܡ ܗܟܢܐ ܐܦ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܡܟܘ ܒܝܫܘܥ ܡܝܬܐ ܥܡܗ ܀
15(For this we say to you in [the] word of [the] Lord, that *we*, the living, who remain to the coming of the Lord, are in no way to anticipate those who have fallen asleep;
15ܗܕܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܝܢܢ ܠܟܘܢ ܒܡܠܬܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܕܚܢܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܫܬܚܪܝܢܢ ܒܡܐܬܝܬܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܕܚܝܝܢܢ ܠܐ ܢܕܪܟ ܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܡܟܘ ܀
16for the Lord himself, with an assembling shout, with archangel's voice and with trump of God, shall descend from heaven; and the dead in Christ shall rise first;
16ܡܛܠ ܕܗܘ ܡܪܢ ܒܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܘܒܩܠܐ ܕܪܝܫ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܘܒܩܪܢܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܢܚܬ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܘܡܝܬܐ ܕܒܡܫܝܚܐ ܢܩܘܡܘܢ ܠܘܩܕܡ ܀
17then *we*, the living who remain, shall be caught up together with them in [the] clouds, to meet the Lord in [the] air; and thus we shall be always with [the] Lord.
17ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܚܢܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܫܬܚܪܝܢܢ ܕܚܝܝܢܢ ܢܬܚܛܦ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܐܟܚܕܐ ܒܥܢܢܐ ܠܐܘܪܥܗ ܕܡܪܢ ܒܐܐܪ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܒܟܠܙܒܢ ܥܡ ܡܪܢ ܢܗܘܐ ܀
18So encourage one another with these words.)
18ܗܘܘ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܒܝܐܝܢ ܚܕ ܠܚܕ ܒܡܠܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܀
