1 For what remains, pray brethren, for us - in order that the Word of the Prince may move quickly and be extolled, just as even with you, 2 and that we should be protected from those disgusting and wicked men, since the faith is not for all. 3 But trustworthy is the Prince, who will establish you and keep you from the wicked. 4 And we are persuaded by the Prince concerning you, that the things which we have instructed you are doing and you will do. 5 Now the Prince is to keep your hearts straight in the love of Yahweh and in the endurance of the Anointed. 6 And we instruct you, brethren, in the name of our Prince Yahshua Christ, you are to avoid every brother conducting himself in a disorderly manner, and not in accordance with the tradition which they have received from us. 7 For you yourselves know how it is necessary to imitate us, seeing that we have not been disorderly among you, 8 nor did we eat bread from anyone freely, but in labor and hardship, working night and day, by which not to be burdensome to any of you. 9 Not that we have not authority, but that we ourselves would give to you a model by which to imitate us. 10 Also when we were with you, this we instructed you, that if anyone wishes not to work, neither must he eat. 11 For we hear that some among you are conducting themselves in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but rather meddling with others' affairs. 12 Now to such we instruct and we exhort by Prince Yahshua Christ, that working with silence, their own bread they should eat. 13 But you, brethren, doing well do not falter, 14 and if anyone obeys not our word through this letter, make him known, not to associate yourselves with him, that he may turn about, 15 and do not regard him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother. 16 Now the Prince Himself of peace, may give that peace to you continually in every way. The Prince is with all of you. 17 This salutation of Paul by my own hand, which is a sign in every letter, so I write. 18 The favor of our Prince Yahshua Christ is with all of you.
