The Scriptures 1998

1 Thessalonians 4:1-10 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

1. For the rest then, brothers, we beg you and call upon you in the Master יהושע, that as you received from us how you should walk and to please Elohim, you should excel still more,

2. for you know what commands we gave you through the Master יהושע.

3. For this is the desire of Elohim: your set-apartness! – that you should abstain from whoring,

4. that each one of you should know how to possess his own vessel in set-apartness and respect,

5. not in passion of lust, like the gentiles who do not know Elohim,

6. not to overstep and take advantage of his brother in this matter, because the Master is the revenger of all such, as we indeed said to you before and earnestly warned.

7. For Elohim did not call us to uncleanness, but in set-apartness.

8. Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but Elohim, who also gives us His Set-apart Spirit.

9. And it is not necessary to write to you about brotherly love, for you yourselves are taught by Elohim to love one another,

10. for, in fact, you do so toward all the brothers who are in all Makedonia. But we call upon you, brothers, that you do so more and more,
