5:1  But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you.
5:2  For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night.
5:3  For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction comes on them, as travail on a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
5:4  But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5:5  You are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
5:6  Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
5:7  For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
5:8  But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
5:9  For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
5:10  Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
5:11  Why comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also you do.
5:12  And we beseech you, brothers, to know them which labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;
5:13  And to esteem them very highly in love for their work's sake. And be at peace among yourselves.
5:14  Now we exhort you, brothers, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
5:15  See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
5:16  Rejoice ever more.
5:17  Pray without ceasing.
5:18  In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
5:19  Quench not the Spirit.
5:20  Despise not prophesyings.
5:21  Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
5:22  Abstain from all appearance of evil.
5:23  And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
5:24  Faithful is he that calls you, who also will do it.
5:25  Brothers, pray for us.
5:26  Greet all the brothers with an holy kiss.
5:27  I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the holy brothers.
5:28  The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
