I Thessalonians 4

de cetero ergo fratres rogamus vos et obsecramus in Domino Iesu ut quemadmodum accepistis a nobis quomodo vos oporteat ambulare et placere Deo sicut et ambulatis ut abundetis magis
Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
scitis enim quae praecepta dederimus vobis per Dominum Iesum
For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
haec est enim voluntas Dei sanctificatio vestra
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
ut abstineatis vos a fornicatione ut sciat unusquisque vestrum suum vas possidere in sanctificatione et honore
That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
non in passione desiderii sicut et gentes quae ignorant Deum
Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
ut ne quis supergrediatur neque circumveniat in negotio fratrem suum quoniam vindex est Dominus de his omnibus sicut et praediximus vobis et testificati sumus
That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
non enim vocavit nos Deus in inmunditia sed in sanctificatione
For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
itaque qui spernit non hominem spernit sed Deum qui etiam dedit Spiritum suum Sanctum in vobis
He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
de caritate autem fraternitatis non necesse habemus scribere vobis ipsi enim vos a Deo didicistis ut diligatis invicem
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
etenim facitis illud in omnes fratres in universa Macedonia rogamus autem vos fratres ut abundetis magis
And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
et operam detis ut quieti sitis et ut vestrum negotium agatis et operemini manibus vestris sicut praecepimus vobis
And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
et ut honeste ambuletis ad eos qui foris sunt et nullius aliquid desideretis
That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
nolumus autem vos ignorare fratres de dormientibus ut non contristemini sicut et ceteri qui spem non habent
But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
si enim credimus quod Iesus mortuus est et resurrexit ita et Deus eos qui dormierunt per Iesum adducet cum eo
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
hoc enim vobis dicimus in verbo Domini quia nos qui vivimus qui residui sumus in adventum Domini non praeveniemus eos qui dormierunt
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
quoniam ipse Dominus in iussu et in voce archangeli et in tuba Dei descendet de caelo et mortui qui in Christo sunt resurgent primi
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
deinde nos qui vivimus qui relinquimur simul rapiemur cum illis in nubibus obviam Domino in aera et sic semper cum Domino erimus
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
itaque consolamini invicem in verbis istis
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
