1 Thessalonians 4

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 Therefore, concerning other things, brothers, we ask and beg you, in the Lord Jesus, that, just as you have received from us the way in which you ought to walk and to please God, so also may you walk, in order that you may abound all the more.	1 فمن ثم ايها الاخوة نسألكم ونطلب اليكم في الرب يسوع انكم كما تسلمتم منا كيف يجب ان تسلكوا وترضوا الله تزدادون اكثر.
2 For you know what precepts I have given to you through the Lord Jesus.	2 لانكم تعلمون ايّة وصايا اعطيناكم بالرب يسوع.
3 For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from fornication,	3 لان هذه هي ارادة الله قداستكم. ان تمتنعوا عن الزنى
4 that each one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor,	4 ان يعرف كل واحد منكم ان يقتني اناءه بقداسة وكرامة.
5 not in passions of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God,	5 لا في هوى شهوة كالامم الذين لا يعرفون الله.
6 and that no one should overwhelm or circumvent his brother in business. For the Lord is the vindicator of all these things, just as we have preached and testified to you.	6 ان لا يتطاول احد ويطمع على اخيه في هذا الامر لان الرب منتقم لهذه كلها كما قلنا لكم قبلا وشهدنا.
7 For God has not called us to impurity, but to sanctification.	7 لان الله لم يدعنا للنجاسة بل في القداسة.
8 And so, whoever despises these teachings, does not despise man, but God, who has even provided his Holy Spirit within us.	8 اذا من يرذل لا يرذل انسانا بل الله الذي اعطانا ايضا روحه القدوس
9 But concerning the charity of brotherhood, we have no need to write to you. For you yourselves have learned from God that you should love one another.	9 واما المحبة الاخوية فلا حاجة لكم ان اكتب اليكم عنها لانكم انفسكم متعلمون من الله ان يحب بعضكم بعضا.
10 For indeed, you act in this way with all the brothers in all of Macedonia. But we petition you, brothers, so that you may abound all the more,	10 فانكم تفعلون ذلك ايضا لجميع الاخوة الذين في مكدونية كلها. وانما اطلب اليكم ايها الاخوة ان تزدادوا اكثر
11 to choose work that allows you to be tranquil, and to carry out your business and to do your work with your own hands, just as we have instructed you,	11 وان تحرصوا على ان تكونوا هادئين وتمارسوا اموركم الخاصة وتشتغلوا بايديكم انتم كما اوصيناكم
12 and to walk honestly with those who are outside, and to desire nothing belonging to another.	12 لكي تسلكوا بلياقة عند الذين هم من خارج ولا تكون لكم حاجة الى احد
13 And we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who are sleeping, so as not to be sorrowful, like these others who do not have hope.	13 ثم لا اريد ان تجهلوا ايها الاخوة من جهة الراقدين لكي لا تحزنوا كالباقين الذين لا رجاء لهم.
14 For if we believe that Jesus has died and risen again, so also will God bring back with Jesus those who sleep in him.	14 لانه ان كنا نؤمن ان يسوع مات وقام فكذلك الراقدون بيسوع سيحضرهم الله ايضا معه.
15 For we say this to you, in the Word of the Lord: that we who are alive, who remain until the return of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.	15 فاننا نقول لكم هذا بكلمة الرب اننا نحن الاحياء الباقين الى مجيء الرب لا نسبق الراقدين.
16 For the Lord himself, with a command and with the voice of an Archangel and with a trumpet of God, shall descend from heaven. And the dead, who are in Christ, shall rise up first.	16 لان الرب نفسه بهتاف بصوت رئيس ملائكة وبوق الله سوف ينزل من السماء والاموات في المسيح سيقومون اولا.
17 Next, we who are alive, who are remaining, shall be taken up quickly together with them into the clouds to meet Christ in the air. And in this way, we shall be with the Lord always.	17 ثم نحن الاحياء الباقين سنخطف جميعا معهم في السحب لملاقاة الرب في الهواء. وهكذا نكون كل حين مع الرب.
18 Therefore, console one another with these words.	18 لذلك عزوا بعضكم بعضا بهذا الكلام
