1 Tesalonicenses 4

And last of all, the prayer which we make to you from our heart and in the name of the Lord Jesus, is this: that as we made clear to you what sort of behaviour is pleasing to God, as in fact you are doing now, so you will go on in these ways, but more and more.

RESTA pues, hermanos, que os roguemos y exhortemos en el Señor Jesús, que de la manera que fuisteis enseñados de nosotros de cómo os conviene andar, y agradar á Dios, así vayáis creciendo.

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

Finally then, brothers, we beg and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God, that you abound more and more.

Because you have in mind the orders we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

Porque ya sabéis qué mandamientos os dimos por el Señor Jesús.

For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

For the purpose of God for you is this: that you may be holy, and may keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh;

Porque la voluntad de Dios es vuestra santificación: que os apartéis de fornicación;

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

For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

So that every one of you may keep his body holy and in honour;

Que cada uno de vosotros sepa tener su vaso en santificación y honor;

That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

Not in the passion of evil desires, like the Gentiles, who have no knowledge of God;

No con afecto de concupiscencia, como los Gentiles que no conocen á Dios:

Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:

not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God,

And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.

Que ninguno oprima, ni engañe en nada á su hermano: porque el Señor es vengador de todo esto, como ya os hemos dicho y protestado.

That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.

that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.

Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.

Porque no nos ha llamado Dios á inmundicia, sino á santificación.

For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.

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

Whoever, then, goes against this word, goes against not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

Así que, el que menosprecia, no menosprecia á hombre, sino á Dios, el cual también nos dió su Espíritu Santo.

He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.

Therefore he who rejects this doesn’t reject man, but God, who has also given his Holy Spirit to you.

But about loving the brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you in this letter: for you have the teaching of God that love for one another is right and necessary;

Mas acerca de la caridad fraterna no habéis menester que os escriba: porque vosotros mismos habéis aprendido de Dios que os améis los unos á los otros;

But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

But concerning brotherly love, you have no need that one write to you. For you yourselves are taught by God to love one another,

And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;

Y también lo hacéis así con todos los hermanos que están por toda Macedonia. Empero os rogamos, hermanos, que abundéis más;

And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;

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

And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;

Y que procuréis tener quietud, y hacer vuestros negocios, y obréis de vuestras manos de la manera que os hemos mandado;

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

and that you make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, even as we instructed you,

That you may be respected by those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.

A fin de que andéis honestamente para con los extraños, y no necesitéis de nada.

That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.

But it is our desire, brothers, that you may be certain about those who are sleeping; so that you may have no need for sorrow, as others have who are without hope.

Tampoco, hermanos, queremos que ignoréis acerca de los que duermen, que no os entristezcáis como los otros que no tienen esperanza.

But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you don’t grieve like the rest, who have no hope.

For if we have faith that Jesus underwent death and came back again, even so those who are sleeping will come again with him by God's power.

Porque si creemos que Jesús murió y resucitó, así también traerá Dios con él á los que durmieron en Jesús.

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

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in Jesus.

For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are still living at the coming of the Lord, will not go before those who are sleeping.

Por lo cual, os decimos esto en palabra del Señor: que nosotros que vivimos, que habremos quedado hasta la venida del Señor, no seremos delanteros á los que durmieron.

For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.

For this we tell you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will in no way precede those who have fallen asleep.

Because the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a word of authority, with the voice of the chief angel, with the sound of a horn: and the dead in Christ will come to life first;

Porque el mismo Señor con aclamación, con voz de arcángel, y con trompeta de Dios, descenderá del cielo; y los muertos en Cristo resucitarán primero:

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:

For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with God’s trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,

Then we who are still living will be taken up together with them into the clouds to see the Lord in the air: and so will we be for ever with the Lord.

Luego nosotros, los que vivimos, los que quedamos, juntamente con ellos seremos arrebatados en las nubes á recibir al Señor en el aire, y así estaremos siempre con el Señor.

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.

So then, give comfort to one another with these words.

Por tanto, consolaos los unos á los otros en estas palabras.

Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Therefore comfort one another with these words.
