 aFinallyg3062, brethreng80,  bprayg4336 for us that  cthe wordg3056 of the Lordg2962 will  1spreadg5143 rapidlyg5143 and be glorifiedg1392, justg2531a as it did alsog2532 with you;

2

and that we will be  arescuedg4506 from  1perverseg824 and evilg4190 meng444; for not allg3956 have  2faithg4102.

3

But  athe Lordg2962 is faithfulg4103,  1and He will strengtheng4741 and protectg5442 you  2from  bthe evilg4190 one.

4

We haveg3982  aconfidenceg3982 in the Lordg2962 concerningg1909 you, that you  bare doingg4160 and will continue to dog4160 whatg3739 we commandg3853.

May the Lordg2962  adirectg2720 your heartsg2588 into the loveg26 of Godg2316 and into the steadfastnessg5281 of Christg5547.

6

Nowg1161 we commandg3853 you, brethreng80,  ain the nameg3686 of our Lordg2962 Jesusg2424 Christg5547, that you  1 bkeepg4724 awayg4724 from everyg3956 brotherg80 who  2leadsg4043 an  3 cunrulyg814 lifeg4043 and not accordingg2596 to  dthe traditiong3862 whichg3739  4you receivedg3880 from us.

7

For you yourselvesg846 knowg3609a howg4459 you oughtg1163 to  1 afollowg3401 our exampleg3401, becauseg3754 we did not actg812 in an undisciplinedg812 mannerg812 amongg1722 you,

8

norg3761 did we  aeatg2068  1anyone'sg3844g5100 breadg740  2withoutg1431 payingg1431 for it, but with  blaborg2873 and hardshipg3449 we kept  cworkingg2038b nightg3571 and dayg2250 sog4314 that we would not be a burdeng1912 to anyg5100 of you;

9

not becauseg3754 we do not haveg2192  athe rightg1849 to this, but in orderg2443 to offerg1325 ourselvesg1438  bas a modelg5179b for you, sog1519 that you would  1followg3401 our exampleg3401.

10

For eveng2532  awheng3753 we were with you, we used to giveg3853 you thisg3778 orderg3853:  bifg1487 anyoneg5100 is not willingg2309 to workg2038b, theng3754 he is not to eatg2068, eitherg3366.

11

For we hearg191 that someg5100 amongg1722 you are  aleadingg4043 an undisciplinedg814 lifeg4043, doingg2038b nog3367 workg2038b at allg3367, but actingg4020 likeg4020  bbusybodiesg4020.

12

Nowg1161 suchg5108 personsg5108 we commandg3853 and  aexhortg3870 in the Lordg2962 Jesusg2424 Christg5547 to  bworkg2038b in quietg2271 fashiong2271 and eatg2068 their owng1438 breadg740.

13

But as for you,  abrethreng80,  bdo not growg1457b wearyg1457b of doingg2569 goodg2569.

14

Ifg1487 anyoneg5100 does not obeyg5219 our  1instructiong3056  2 ain thisg3588 letterg1992, takeg4593 specialg4593 noteg4593 of that persong3778  3 band do not associateg4874 with him, sog2443 that he will be  cputg1788 to shameg1788.

15

Yet  ado not regardg2233 him as an enemyg2190, but  1 badmonishg3560 him as a  cbrotherg80.

16

Nowg1161  amay the Lordg2962 of peaceg1515  bHimselfg846 continuallyg1223g3956 grantg1325 you peaceg1515 in everyg3956  1circumstanceg5158.  cThe Lordg2962 be with you allg3956!

17

 1I, Paulg3972, write thisg3588 greetingg783  awith my owng1699 handg5495, and thisg3739 is a distinguishingg4592 markg4592 in everyg3956 letterg1992; thisg3779 is the wayg3779 I writeg1125.
