1:1 保罗、西拉和提摩太,写信给在父神和主耶稣基督里,帖撒罗尼迦人的召会:愿恩典与平安归与你们。
Paul and Silvanus and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
1:2 我们为你们众人常常感谢神,在祷告中常提到你们;
We thank God always concerning all of you, making mention of you in our prayers,
1:3 在我们的神与父面前,不住的记念你们信心的工作,爱心的劳苦,并对我们主耶稣基督之盼望的忍耐;
Remembering unceasingly your work of faith and labor of love and endurance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;
1:4 蒙神所爱的弟兄们,我们知道你们是蒙拣选的,
Knowing, brothers, beloved of God, your selection;
1:5 因为我们的福音传到你们那里,不仅在于言语,也在于能力和圣灵,并充足的确信,正如你们知道,我们在你们中间,为你们的缘故是怎样为人。
For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance, even as you know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.
1:6 并且你们在大患难之中,带着圣灵的喜乐,领受了主的话,就效法我们,也效法了主,
And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction with joy of the Holy Spirit,
1:7 以致你们成了马其顿和亚该亚所有信徒的榜样。
So that you became a pattern to all those who believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.
1:8 因为主的话从你们那里已经宣扬出来,不单在马其顿和亚该亚,就是在各处,你们向神的信心也都传开了,所以不用我们说什么;
For from you the word of the Lord has sounded out; not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but in every place, your faith toward God has gone out, so that we have no need of saying anything.
1:9 因为他们自己正在传报关于我们的事,就是我们是怎样的进到了你们那里,你们又是怎样离弃了偶像转向神,来服事又活又真的神,
For they themselves report concerning us what kind of entrance we had toward you and how you turned to God from the idols to serve a living and true God
1:10 并且等候祂的儿子从诸天降临,就是祂从死人中所复活,那拯救我们脱离要来忿怒的耶稣。
And await His Son from the heavens, whom He raised from the dead, Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath which is coming.
