¹Sha’ul [desired] , and Silvanus (Silas) [woody] , and Timothy [honoring God] , unto the church of the Thessalonians [victory of falsity] [which is] in God-The Father the Father and [in] the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] : Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from God-The Father our Father, and the Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] .

²We give thanks to God-The Father always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;

³Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord - Kurios [he to whom a person belongs] Yeshua [God is Salvation] Moshiach [Messiah] , in the sight of God-The Father and our Father;

⁴Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God-The Father.

⁵For our Gospel (joyful message) came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit [Ruach HaKodesh] , and in much assurance; as you2f know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.

⁶And you2f became followers of us, and of the Lord - Kurios, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit [Ruach HaKodesh] :

⁷So that you2f were examples (types) to all that believe in Macedonia [extended land] and Achaia [trouble] .

⁸For from you sounded out the word of the Lord - Kurios not only in Macedonia [extended land] and Achaia [trouble] , but also in every place your faith to God-The Father-ward (in custody, with a guard; prison) is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.

⁹For they themselves show of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how you2f turned to God-The Father from idols to serve the living and true God-The Father;

¹⁰And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, [even] Yeshua [God is Salvation] , which delivered us from the wrath to come.
