Tweede lesing

1From Paul, Silas, and Timothy —

To the people of the church in Thessalonica, who belong to God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

2May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.

The Judgement at Christ's Coming

3Our brothers and sisters, we must thank God at all times for you. It is right for us to do so, because your faith is growing so much and the love each of you has for the others is becoming greater. 4That is why we ourselves boast about you in the churches of God. We boast about the way you continue to endure and believe through all the persecutions and sufferings you are experiencing.

11That is why we always pray for you. We ask our God to make you worthy of the life he has called you to live. May he fulfil by his power all your desire for goodness and complete your work of faith. 12In this way the name of our Lord Jesus will receive glory from you, and you from him, by the grace of our God and of the Lord Jesus Christ.
