1 Thessalonians 5:1-5 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. I don't need to write to you about the time or date when all this will happen.

2. You know that the Lord's return will be as a thief coming at night.

3. People will think they are safe and secure. But destruction will suddenly strike them like the pains of a woman about to give birth. And they won't escape.

4. My dear friends, you don't live in darkness, and so that day won't surprise you like a thief.

5. You belong to the light and live in the day. We don't live in the night or belong to the dark.
