(1th 1:1) Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians {which is} in God the Father and {in} the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace {be} unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
(1th 1:2) We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you in our prayers;
(1th 1:3) Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
(1th 1:4) Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
(1th 1:5) For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake.
(1th 1:6) And ye became followers of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost:
(1th 1:7) So that ye were ensamples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.
(1th 1:8) For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.
(1th 1:9) For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;
(1th 1:10) And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, {even} Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
