New King James Version

1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 New King James Version (NKJV)

1. But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you.

2. For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.

3. For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.

4. But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.
