2 Thessalonians 3

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Finally, brothers, pray for us, so that the word of the Lord may speed forward and be glorified, as it did among you,	1 De cetero fratres, orate pro nobis ut sermo Dei currat, et clarificetur, sicut et apud vos :
2 and that we may be delivered from perverse and wicked people, for not all have faith.	2 et ut liberemur ab importunis, et malis hominibus : non enim omnium est fides.
3 But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one.	3 Fidelis autem Deus est, qui confirmabit vos, et custodiet a malo.
4 We are confident of you in the Lord that what we instruct you, you (both) are doing and will continue to do.	4 Confidimus autem de vobis, in Domino, quoniam quæ præcepimus, et facitis, et facietis.
5 May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the endurance of Christ.	5 Dominus autem dirigat corda vestra in caritate Dei, et patientia Christi.
6 We instruct you, brothers, in the name of (our) Lord Jesus Christ,to shun any brother who conducts himself in a disorderly way and not according to the tradition they received from us.	6 Denuntiamus autem vobis, fratres, in nomine Domini nostri Jesu Christi, ut subtrahatis vos ab omni fratre ambulante inordinate, et non secundum traditionem, quam acceperunt a nobis.
7 For you know how one must imitate us. For we did not act in a disorderly way among you,	7 Ipsi enim scitis quemadmodum oporteat imitari nos : quoniam non inquieti fuimus inter vos :
8 nor did we eat food received free from anyone. On the contrary, in toil and drudgery, night and day we worked, so as not to burden any of you.	8 neque gratis panem manducavimus ab aliquo, sed in labore, et in fatigatione, nocte et die operantes, ne quem vestrum gravaremus.
9 Not that we do not have the right. Rather, we wanted to present ourselves as a model for you, so that you might imitate us.	9 Non quasi non habuerimus potestatem, sed ut nosmetipsos formam daremus vobis ad imitandum nos.
10 In fact, when we were with you, we instructed you that if anyone was unwilling to work, neither should that one eat.	10 Nam et cum essemus apud vos, hoc denuntiabamus vobis : quoniam si quis non vult operari, nec manducet.
11 We hear that some are conducting themselves among you in a disorderly way, by not keeping busy but minding the business ofothers.	11 Audivimus enim inter vos quosdam ambulare inquiete, nihil operantes, sed curiose agentes.
12 Such people we instruct and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to work quietly and to eat their own food.	12 Iis autem, qui ejusmodi sunt, denuntiemus, et obsecramus in Domino Jesu Christo, ut cum silentio operantes, suum panem manducent.
13 But you, brothers, do not be remiss in doing good.	13 Vos autem, fratres, nolite deficere benefacientes.
14 If anyone does not obey our word as expressed in this letter, take note of this person not to associate with him, that he may be put to shame.	14 Quod si quis non obedit verbo nostro per epistolam, hunc notate, et ne commisceamini cum illo ut confundatur :
15 Do not regard him as an enemy but admonish him as a brother.	15 et nolite quasi inimicum existimare, sed corripite ut fratrem.
16 May the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you.	16 Ipse autem Dominus pacis det vobis pacem sempiternam in omni loco. Dominus sit cum omnibus vobis.
17 This greeting is in my own hand, Paul's. This is the sign in every letter; this is how I write.	17 Salutatio, mea manu Pauli : quod est signum in omni epistola, ita scribo.
18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.	18 Gratia Domini nostri Jesu Christi cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
