OET 1TH chapter 4

4 So finally, brothers and sisters, you learnt from us about how to live in a way that pleases God as indeed you are. Now we are requesting you and we are instructing in the master Yeshua to do this even more, 2 because you all know the instructions that we gave to you through the master Yeshua. 3 Because this is God’s will: that you all stay holy, keeping away from all sexual immorality, 4 knowing that each of your bodies is like a container that you can fill with holiness and honour. 5 Don’t fill them with lustful passions like those who don’t know God, 6 nor going beyond lusts and exploiting your fellow believers, because the master is the one who avenges all those things as we’ve told you before and testified to you all. 7 God has not called us to impurity but to holiness, 8 so whoever rejects this is not rejecting a human but rejecting God—the one who gives his holy spirit to you all.

9 Then concerning brotherly love, you don’t need me to write about that because you yourselves have been taught by God to be loving each other 10 and because you’re all already doing it to the believers all over Macedonia. But we advise you, brothers and sisters to do it even more 11 and to make it your ambition to live quietly and to look after your own selves. Work with your own hands as we instructed you, 12 so that you have a good attitude towards non-believers and so that you don’t have any outstanding needs.

4 Therefore finally, brothers, we _are _asking you _all and we _are _exhorting in the_master Yaʸsous, as you _all _received from us, which how it _is _fitting you _all to _be _walking and to _be _bringing _pleasure to_god (as even you _all _are _walking), in _order _that you _all _may _be _being _plentiful more.
2 For/Because you _all _have _known what _all charges we _gave to _you _all through the master Yaʸsous.
3 For/Because this is the_will of_ the _god, the holiness of _you _all, to _be _keeping _away you _all from the sexual _immorality, 4 to _have _known each of _you _all the of _himself vessel, to _be _acquiring in holiness and honour, 5 not in the_passion of _lust, just _as also the pagans which not having _known the god, 6 which not to _be _going _beyond and to _be _exploiting in the matter the brother of _him, because avenging is the_master concerning all these things, as also we _previously _said to _you _all and we _testified.
7 For/Because not called us the god to impurity, but in holiness.
8 So _then the one rejecting this, not a_human is _rejecting, but the god, the one giving the spirit of _him the holy to you _all.
9 And concerning the brotherly _love, no need you _all _are _having for _me to _be _writing to _you _all, because/for yourselves you _all god-taught are, in _order that to _be _loving one _another.
10 For/Because also you _all _are _doing it toward all the brothers, who are in all the Makedonia.
But we _are _exhorting you _all, brothers, to _be _being _plentiful more, 11 and to _be _being _ambitious to _be _living _quietly and to _be _doing your own things, and to _be _working with _your own hands of _you _all, as to _you _all we _commanded, 12 in _order _that you _all _may _be _walking properly toward the ones outside, and of _nothing need you _all _may _be _having.

4:13 The master’s return

13 But we don’t want you to be ignorant, brothers and sisters, about those who’ve died so that you won’t mourn like others who don’t have any hope, 14 because if we believe that Yeshua died and came back to life, then we can also believe that when he returns, Yeshua will be bringing with him those who have died. 15 [ref]So this is what we’re saying in the message about the master: those who are still living when the master returns, we certainly won’t precede those who’ve already died 16 because there’ll be an announcement from the archangel and God’s trumpet will sound and then the master will come down from heaven with a loud shout. The dead believers in Messiah will come to life again first, 17 then we who are still alive will be pulled up into the clouds together with them to meet the master in the air, and from then will always remain with the master. 18 So when someone dies, comfort each other with those truths.

4:15-17: 1Cor 15:51-52.

13 Not but we _are _wanting you _all to _be _not _knowing, brothers, concerning the ones being _fallen _asleep, in _order _that not you _all _may _be _being _sorrowed, as also the rest, the ones not having hope.
14 For/Because if we _are _believing that Yaʸsous/(Yəhōshūˊa) died _off and rose _up, thus also the god the ones having _been _fallen _asleep through the Yaʸsous will _be _bringing with him.
15 For/Because this to _you _all we _are _saying in the_message of_the_master, that we the ones living, which being _remaining to the coming of _the master, by _no _means not may _precede the ones having _been _fallen _asleep.
16 Because himself the master with a_loud _command, with the_voice of_an_archangel, and with the_trumpet of_god, will _be _coming _down from heaven, and the dead in chosen _one /messiah will _be _rising _up first, 17 then we the ones living, which being _remaining together with them, will _be _being _snatched in the_clouds for the_meeting of _the master in the_air, and thus always with the_master we _will _be.
18 So _then be _comforting one _another with the messages these.
