(Заⷱ҇ ©ѯ҃ѳ҃.) Тѣ́мже оу҆̀бо, бра́тїе, про́симъ вы̀ и҆ мо́лимъ ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ і҆и҃сѣ, ꙗ҆́коже прїѧ́сте ѿ на́съ, ка́кѡ подоба́етъ ва́мъ ходи́ти и҆ оу҆гожда́ти бг҃ови, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ хо́дите, да и҆збы́точествꙋете па́че:

¹

Finally then, brethren, we beseech and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, as ye received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, that ye would abound more and more.

²

вѣ́сте бо, какѡва̀ повелѣ̑нїѧ да́хомъ ва́мъ гдⷭ҇емъ і҆и҃сомъ.

²

For ye know what charge we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

³

Сїѧ́ бо є҆́сть во́лѧ бж҃їѧ, ст҃ость ва́ша, храни́ти себѐ самѣ́хъ ѿ блꙋда̀,

³

For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye abstain from fornication;

⁴

(и҆) вѣ́дѣти комꙋ́ждо ѿ ва́съ сво́й сосꙋ́дъ стѧжава́ти во ст҃ы́ни и҆ че́сти,

⁴

that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

⁵

(а҆) не въ стра́сти по́хотнѣй, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ ꙗ҆зы́цы не вѣ́дѧщїи бг҃а,

⁵

not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who know not God;

⁶

(и҆) є҆́же не престꙋпа́ти и҆ лихои́мствовати въ ве́щи бра́та своегѡ̀: занѐ мсти́тель є҆́сть гдⷭ҇ь ѡ҆ всѣ́хъ си́хъ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ пре́жде реко́хомъ къ ва́мъ и҆ засвидѣ́телствовахомъ.

⁶

that no man transgress, and wrong his brother in the matter: because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.

⁷

Не призва́ бо на́съ бг҃ъ на нечистотꙋ̀, но во ст҃ость.

⁷

For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.

⁸

Тѣ́мже оу҆̀бо ѿмета́ѧй не человѣ́ка ѿмета́етъ, но бг҃а, да́вшаго дх҃а своего̀ ст҃а́го въ на́съ.

⁸

Therefore he that rejecteth, rejecteth not man, but God, who hath also given his Holy Spirit unto you.

⁹

Ѡ҆ братолю́бїи же, не тре́бꙋете, да пи́шетсѧ къ ва́мъ, са́ми бо вы̀ бг҃омъ оу҆че́ни є҆стѐ, є҆́же люби́ти дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га:

⁹

But concerning love of the brethren ye have no need that one write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another;

¹⁰

и҆́бо творитѐ то̀ ко все́й бра́тїи, сꙋ́щей во все́й македо́нїи. Мо́лимъ же вы̀, бра́тїе, и҆збы́точествовати па́че,

¹⁰

for indeed ye do it toward all the brethren that are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brethren, that ye abound more and more;

¹¹

и҆ любе́знѡ прилѣжа́ти, є҆́же безмо́лвствовати и҆ дѣ́ѧти своѧ̑ и҆ дѣ́лати свои́ма рꙋка́ма, ꙗ҆́коже повелѣ́хомъ ва́мъ:

¹¹

and that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we charged you;

¹²

да хо́дите благоѡбра́знѡ ко внѣ̑шнимъ и҆ ни чесогѡ́же тре́бꙋете.

¹²

that ye may walk becomingly toward them that are without, and may have need of nothing.

¹³

(Заⷱ҇ ©о҃.) Не хощꙋ́ же ва́съ, бра́тїе, не вѣ́дѣти ѡ҆ оу҆ме́ршихъ, да не скорбитѐ, ꙗ҆́коже и҆ про́чїи не и҆мꙋ́щїи оу҆пова́нїѧ.

¹³

But we would not have you ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are fallen asleep; that ye sorrow not, even as the rest, who have no hope.

¹⁴

А҆́ще бо вѣ́рꙋемъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ і҆и҃съ оу҆́мре и҆ воскр҃се, та́кѡ и҆ бг҃ъ оу҆ме́ршыѧ во і҆и҃сѣ приведе́тъ съ ни́мъ.

¹⁴

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that are fallen asleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

¹⁵

Сїе́ бо ва́мъ глаго́лемъ сло́вомъ гдⷭ҇нимъ, ꙗ҆́кѡ мы̀ живꙋ́щїи, ѡ҆ста́вшїи въ прише́ствїе гдⷭ҇не, не и҆́мамы предвари́ти оу҆ме́ршихъ:

¹⁵

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep.

¹⁶

ꙗ҆́кѡ са́мъ гдⷭ҇ь въ повелѣ́нїи, во гла́сѣ а҆рха́гг҃ловѣ и҆ въ трꙋбѣ̀ бж҃їи сни́детъ съ нб҃сѐ, и҆ ме́ртвїи ѡ҆ хрⷭ҇тѣ̀ воскре́снꙋтъ пе́рвѣе:

¹⁶

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;

¹⁷

пото́мъ же мы̀, живꙋ́щїи ѡ҆ста́вшїи, кꙋ́пнѡ съ ни́ми восхище́ни бꙋ́демъ на ѡ҆́блацѣхъ въ срѣ́тенїе гдⷭ҇не на воздꙋ́сѣ, и҆ та́кѡ всегда̀ съ гдⷭ҇емъ бꙋ́демъ.

¹⁷

then we that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

¹⁸

Тѣ́мже оу҆тѣша́йте дрꙋ́гъ дрꙋ́га въ словесѣ́хъ си́хъ.

¹⁸

Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
