Kiniseran e rempet reh bagi suina iakap diberu si nandangi mupus. E maka lanai terkiamkenca. 4 Tapi kam, o senina-senina, labo kam i bas gelap, janah wari e pagi labo min aturenna kam sengget ibahanna bagi si ibahan penangko. 5 Kerina kam anak-anak terang dingen anak-anak suari. Asalta labo i bas berngi ntah pe i bas gelap nari. 6 E maka la kita patut tunduh bagi kalak si deban. Kita arus metenget dingen jore ukurta. 7 Berngi nge kalak tunduh; berngi nge kalak mabuk. 8 Tapi kita sikerajangen suari kap; arus maka jore ukurta. Arus sipake kiniteken ras keleng ate jadi ampang-ampang tententa, janah pengarapenta guna selamat e me jadi tengkulukta. t 9 Kita ipilih Dibata labo gelah si nanami ukumen si reh i bas Ia nari, tapi gelah sialoken keselamaten arah Tuhanta Jesus Kristus, 10 si enggo mate man gunanta gelah banci kita nggeluh ersada ras Ia, subuk kita nggeluh denga ntah enggo mate asum Ia reh pagi.

15 Metengetlah gelah ola lit si erbalas alu kesalahen nandangi kalak si erbahan salah, tapi bahanlah si mehuli nandangi teman bage pe nandangi kerina manusia.
16 Meriahlah atendu katawari pe. 17 Ertotolah katawari pe,

18 janah katakenlah bujur man Dibata i bas si kugapana pe. Enda me si ngena ate Dibata ibahanndu i bas geluhndu selaku kam kalak si enggo ersada ras Kristus Jesus.
19 Ola ambati pendahin Kesah Si Badia. 20 Ola kam anggap enteng nandangi berita kerna sura-sura Dibata. 21 Kai pe ujilah lebe; cikep si mehuli,

22 silahken kerina si jahat.
23 Dibata, si mereken kemalemen ate man banta, erbahanca kam badia i bas kai pe; janah Ia si engkawali kam, kesahndu, tendindu ras kulandu bersih i bas kesalahen nari asum kerehen Tuhanta Jesus Kristus pagi.

24 Dibata si ndilo kam e setia kap, janah Ia si erbahanca maka si enda banci jadi.

25 Ertotolah kerna kami pe o senina-senina.

26 Sisalam-salamenlah kam alu dem keleng ate bagi si ersenina.

27 Kupindoken man bandu alu kuasa Tuhan: Ogekenlah surat enda man kerina senina-senina si enggo tek man Kristus.
28 Lias ate Tuhan Jesus Kristus min nemani kam.

1 Thessalonians 5

The Day of the Lord

1 Now on the topic of times and seasons,t brothers and sisters,t you have no need for anything to be written to you.2 For you know quite well that the day of the Lords will come in the same way as a thief in the night.s3 Now whens they are saying, “There is peace and security,”t then sudden destruction comes on them, like labor painst on a pregnant woman, and they will surely not escape.4 But you, brothers and sisters,t are not in the darkness for the day to overtake you like a thief would.5 For you all are sons of the light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of the darkness.6 So then we must not sleep as the rest, but must stay alert and sober.7 For those who sleep, sleep at night and those who get drunk are drunk at night.8 But since we are of the day, we must stay sober by putting on the breastplates of faith and love and as a helmet our hope for salvation.t9 For God did not destine us for wraths but for gaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.10 He diedt for us so that whether we are alert or asleeps we will come to life together with him.

11 Therefore encourage one another and build up each other, just as you are in fact doing.

Final Instructions

12 Now we ask you, brothers and sisters,t to acknowledge those who labor among you and preside over you in the Lord and admonish you,13 and to esteem them most highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.14 And we urge you, brothers and sisters,t admonish the undisciplined, comfort the discouraged, help the weak, be patient toward all.15 See that no one pays back evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good for one another and for all.16 Always rejoice,17 constantly pray,18 in everything give thanks. For this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.19 Do not extinguish the Spirit.20 Do not treat prophecies with contempt.21 But examine all things; hold fast to what is good.

22 Stay away from every form of evil.

Conclusion

23 Now may the God of peace himself make you completely holy and may your spirit and soul and body be kept entirely blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.24 He who calls you is trustworthy, and he will in fact do this.t25 Brothers and sisters,t pray for us too.26 Greet all the brothers and sisterst with a holy kiss.27 I call on you solemnly in the Lordt to have this letter read to all the brothers and sisters.st

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.s
