2 Thessalonians 3

1Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also it is with you; 2and that we may be delivered from unreasonable and evil men; for not all have faith. 3But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and guard you from the evil one. 4And we have confidence in the Lord concerning you, that you both do and will do the things which we command. 5And may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Messiah. 6Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Yeshua Messiah, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother who walks disorderly, and not according to the tradition which they received from us. 7For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we did not behave ourselves disorderly among you; 8neither did we eat bread for nothing at any man’s hand, but in labor and toil, working night and day, that we might not burden any of you: 9not because we do not have the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, that you should imitate us. 10For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, If any will not work, neither let him eat. 11For we hear of some who walk among you disorderly, who do not work at all, but are busybodies. 12Now those who are such we command and exhort in the Lord Yeshua Messiah, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. 13But you, brothers, do not be weary in well-doing. 14And if any man does not obey our word by this letter, note that man, that you have no company with him, so that he may be ashamed. 15And yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. 16Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all. 17The greeting of me Paul with my own hand, which is the sign in every letter: so I write. 18The grace of our Lord Yeshua Messiah be with you all.
