帖撒羅尼迦前書-1 Thessalo 第 1 章

1:1保羅、西拉和提摩太,寫信給在父神和主耶穌基督裡,帖撒羅尼迦人的召會:願恩典與平安歸與你們。
Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
1:2我們為你們眾人常常感謝神,在禱告中常提到你們;
We thank God always concerning all of you, making mention of you in our prayers,
1:3在我們的神與父面前,不住的記念你們信心的工作,愛心的勞苦,並對我們主耶穌基督之盼望的忍耐;
Remembering unceasingly your work of faith and labor of love and endurance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;
1:4蒙神所愛的弟兄們,我們知道你們是蒙揀選的,
Knowing, brothers, beloved of God, your selection;
1:5因為我們的福音傳到你們那裡,不僅在於言語,也在於能力和聖靈,並充足的確信,正如你們知道,我們在你們中間,為你們的緣故是怎樣為人。
For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, even as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.
1:6並且你們在大患難之中,帶著聖靈的喜樂,領受了主的話,就傚法我們,也傚法了主,
And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction with joy of the Holy Spirit,
1:7以致你們成了馬其頓和亞該亞所有信徒的榜樣。
So that you became a pattern to all those who believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.
1:8因為主的話從你們那裡已經宣揚出來,不單在馬其頓和亞該亞,就是在各處,你們向神的信心也都傳開了,所以不用我們說什麼;
For from you the word of the Lord has sounded out; not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but in every place, your faith toward God has gone out, so that we have no need of saying anything.
1:9因為他們自己正在傳報關於我們的事,就是我們是怎樣的進到了你們那裡,你們又是怎樣離棄了偶像轉向神,來服事又活又真的神,
For they themselves report concerning us what kind of entrance we had toward you and how you turned to God from the idols to serve a living and true God
1:10並且等候祂的兒子從諸天降臨,就是祂從死人中所復活,那拯救我們脫離要來忿怒的耶穌。
And await His Son from the heavens, whom He raised from the dead, Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath which is coming.
