1 Thessalonians 5 :: King James Version (KJV)

	1Th 5:1	¶ But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
	1Th 5:2	For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
	1Th 5:3	For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
	1Th 5:4	But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
	1Th 5:5	Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
	1Th 5:6	Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
	1Th 5:7	For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
	1Th 5:8	But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
	1Th 5:9	For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
	1Th 5:10	Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
	1Th 5:11	Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
	1Th 5:12	¶ And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
	1Th 5:13	And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
	1Th 5:14	Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
	1Th 5:15	See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
	1Th 5:16	Rejoice evermore.
	1Th 5:17	Pray without ceasing.
	1Th 5:18	In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
	1Th 5:19	Quench not the Spirit.
	1Th 5:20	Despise not prophesyings.
	1Th 5:21	Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
	1Th 5:22	Abstain from all appearance of evil.
	1Th 5:23	¶ And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
	1Th 5:24	Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
	1Th 5:25	Brethren, pray for us.
	1Th 5:26	Greet all the brethren with an holy kiss.
	1Th 5:27	I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
	1Th 5:28	The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.[fn]
