الكتاب المقدس

حياة ترضي الله

1 وَبَعْدُ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، فَمِثْلَمَا تَلَقَّيْتُمْ مِنَّا كَيْفَ يَجِبُ أَنْ تَسْلُكُوا سُلُوكاً يُرْضِي اللهَ، وَكَمَا أَنْتُم فَاعِلُونَ، نَرْجُو مِنْكُمْ وَنُحَرِّضُكُمْ فِي الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ أَنْ تُضَاعِفُوا تَقَدُّمَكُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ أَكْثَرَ فَأَكْثَرَ. 

2 فَإِنَّكُمْ تَعْرِفُونَ الْوَصَايَا الَّتِي لَقَّنَّاكُمْ إِيَّاهَا مِنْ قِبَلِ الرَّبِّ يَسُوعَ. 

3 فَإِنَّ مَشِيئَةَ اللهِ هِيَ هذِهِ: قَدَاسَتُكُمْ. وَذَلِكَ بِأَنْ تَمْتَنِعُوا عَنِ الزِّنَى، 

4 وَأَنْ يَعْرِفَ كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ كَيْفَ يَحْفَظُ جَسَدَهُ فِي الطَّهَارَةِ وَالْكَرَامَةِ 

5 غَيْرَ مُنْسَاقٍ لِلشَّهْوَةِ الْجَامِحَةِ كَالْوَثَنِيِّينَ الَّذِينَ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ اللهَ، 

6 وَأَلَّا يَتَعَدَّى حُقُوقَ أَخِيهِ وَيُسِيءَ إِلَيْهِ فِي هَذَا الأَمْرِ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ هُوَ الْمُنْتَقِمُ لِجَمِيعِ هَذِهِ الإِسَاءَاتِ، كَمَا أَنْذَرْنَاكُمْ قَبْلاً وَشَهِدْنَا لَكُمْ بِحَقٍّ. 

7 فَإِنَّ اللهَ دَعَانَا لَا إِلَى النَّجَاسَةِ بَلْ (إِلَى الْعَيْشِ) فِي الْقَدَاسَةِ. 

8 إِذَنْ، مَنِ اسْتَخَفَّ بِأَخِيهِ فِي هَذَا الأَمْرِ، يَسْتَخِفُّ لَا بِإِنْسَانٍ بَلْ بِاللهِ، بِذَاكَ الَّذِي وَهَبَكُمْ فِعْلاً رُوحَهُ الْقُدُّوسَ. 

9 أَمَّا الْمَحَبَّةُ الأَخَوِيَّةُ، فَلَسْتُمْ فِي حَاجَةٍ لأَنْ أَكْتُبَ إِلَيْكُمْ عَنْهَا، لأَنَّكُمْ بِأَنْفُسِكُمْ قَدْ تَعَلَّمْتُمْ مِنَ اللهِ أَنْ تُحِبُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً، 

10 وَلأَنَّكُمْ أَيْضاً هكَذَا تُعَامِلُونَ جَمِيعَ الإِخْوَةِ فِي مُقَاطَعَةِ مَقِدُونِيَّةَ كُلِّهَا. وَإِنَّمَا نُحَرِّضُكُمْ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، أَنْ تُضَاعِفُوا ذَلِكَ أَكْثَرَ فَأَكْثَرَ، 

11 وَأَنْ تَسْعَوْا بِجِدٍّ إِلَى الْعَيْشِ بِهُدُوءٍ، مُهْتَمِّينَ بِمُمَارَسَةِ شُؤُونِكُمُ الْخَاصَّةِ، وَمُحَصِّلِينَ مَعِيشَتَكُمْ بِعَمَلِ أَيْدِيكُمْ، كَمَا أَوْصَيْنَاكُمْ. 

12 عِنْدَئِذٍ تَكُونُ سِيرَتُكُمْ حَسَنَةَ السُّمْعَةِ تُجَاهَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ خَارِجِ الْكَنِيسَةِ، وَلا تَكُونُونَ فِي حَاجَةٍ إِلَى شَيْءٍ. 

المؤمنون الذين رقدوا

13 عَلَى أَنَّنَا نُرِيدُ، أَيُّهَا الإِخْوَةُ، أَلَّا يَخْفَى عَلَيْكُمْ أَمْرُ الرَّاقِدِينَ، حَتَّى لَا يُصِيبَكُمُ الْحُزْنُ كَغَيْرِكُمْ مِنَ النَّاسِ الَّذِينَ لَا رَجَاءَ لَهُمْ. 

14 فَمَادُمْنَا نُؤْمِنُ أَنَّ يَسُوعَ مَاتَ ثُمَّ قَامَ، فَمَعَهُ كَذَلِكَ سَيُحْضِرُ اللهُ أَيْضاً الرَّاقِدِينَ بِيَسُوعَ. 

15 فَهَذَا نَقُولُهُ لَكُمْ بِكَلِمَةٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ: إِنَّنَا نَحْنُ الْبَاقِينَ أَحْيَاءَ إِلَى حِينِ عَوْدَةِ الرَّبِّ، لَنْ نَسْبِقَ الرَّاقِدِينَ. 

16 لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ نَفْسَهُ سَيَنْزِلُ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ حَالَمَا يُدَوِّي أَمْرٌ بِالتَّجَمُّعِ، وَيُنَادِي رَئِيسُ مَلائِكَةٍ، وَيُبَوَّقُ فِي بُوقٍ إِلهِيٍّ، عِنْدَئِذٍ يَقُومُ الأَمْوَاتُ فِي الْمَسِيحِ أَوَّلاً. 

17 ثُمَّ إِنَّنَا، نَحْنُ الْبَاقِينَ أَحْيَاءَ، نُخْتَطَفُ جَمِيعاً فِي السُّحُبِ لِلاِجْتِمَاعِ بِالرَّبِّ فِي الْهَوَاءِ. وَهكَذَا نَبْقَى مَعَ الرَّبِّ عَلَى الدَّوَامِ. 

18 لِذلِكَ عَزُّوا بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً بِهَذَا الْكَلام!

English Standard Version

A Life Pleasing to God

1 Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more. (أف 4:1; في 4:9; كو 1:10; كو 2:6; 1تس 3:12) 

2 For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus. (1كو 11:2) 

3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality; (رو 6:19; رو 6:22; 1كو 1:30; 1كو 6:18; 2تس 2:13; 1تي 2:15; عب 12:14; 1بط 1:2) 

4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor, (رو 1:24; 2كو 4:7; 1بط 3:7) 

5 not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God; (مز 79:6; إر 9:3; إر 10:25; رو 1:26; غل 4:8; أف 4:17) 

6 that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you. (رو 12:19; رو 13:4; 1كو 6:8; عب 13:4) 

7 For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness. (1تس 2:3; 1تس 4:3; 1بط 1:15) 

8 Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you. (لو 10:16; 1تس 2:13; 1يو 3:24; 1يو 4:13) 

9 Now concerning brotherly love you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another, (يو 6:45; يو 13:34; 1تس 5:1; عب 13:1; 1يو 2:27) 

10 for that indeed is what you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do this more and more, (1تس 1:7; 1تس 3:12) 

11 and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, (أم 17:14; أم 20:3; أم 25:8; أع 18:3; أف 4:28; 2تس 3:11; 2تس 3:12; 1بط 4:15) 

12 so that you may walk properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one. (مر 4:11; رو 13:13; كو 4:5) 

The Coming of the Lord

13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. (لا 19:28; تث 14:1; 2صم 12:20; مر 5:39; أف 2:12) 

14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. (1كو 15:13; 1كو 15:18; 2كو 4:14; رؤ 1:18) 

15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. (1مل 13:17; 1كو 15:51; 1تس 2:19) 

16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. (يؤ 2:11; مت 16:27; مت 24:31; 1كو 15:23; 1كو 15:52; 2تس 1:7; 2تس 2:1; يه 1:9; رؤ 14:13) 

17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. (دا 7:13; يو 12:26; أع 1:9; 2كو 12:2; رؤ 11:12) 

18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.
