1 Thessalonians 2:7 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 Brothers and sisters, you know that our visit to you was not a failure.
2 Before we came to you, people in Philippi abused us with insults and made us suffer. You know all about that. And then, when we came to you, many people there caused trouble for us. But our God gave us the courage we needed to tell you his Good News.
3 When we encourage people to believe the Good News, it's not out of wrong motives. We are not trying to trick or fool anyone.
4 No, it was God who gave us this work, but only after he tested us and saw that we could be trusted to do it. So when we speak, we are not trying to please people. We are only trying to please God. He is the one who can see what is in our hearts.
5 You know that we never tried to influence you by saying nice things about you. We were not trying to get your money. We had no greed to hide from you. God knows that this is true.
6 We were not looking for praise from people. We were not looking for praise from you or anyone else.
7 When we were with you, as apostles of Christ we could have used our authority to make you help us. But we were very gentle with you. We were like a mother caring for her little children.
8 We loved you very much, so we were happy to share God's Good News with you. But not only that—we were also happy to share even our own lives with you.
9 Brothers and sisters, I know that you remember how hard we worked. We worked night and day to support ourselves, so that we would not be a burden to anyone while we did the work of telling you God's Good News.
10 When we were there with you believers, we were pure, honest, and without fault in the way we lived. You know, just as God does, that this is true.
11 You know that we treated each one of you like a father treats his own children.
12 We encouraged you, we comforted you, and we told you to live good lives for God. He calls you to be part of his glorious kingdom.
13 Also, we always thank God because of the way you accepted his message. You heard it and accepted it as God's message, not our own. And it really is God's message. And it works in you who believe.
14 Brothers and sisters, you are like God's churches in Christ Jesus that are in Judea. You were treated badly by your own people, just as God's people in Judea were treated badly by the other Jews there.
15 Those Jews killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets. And they forced us to leave their country. They are not pleasing to God, and they are against everyone else.
16 And they are trying to stop us from teaching those who are not Jews. They don't want them to be saved. But they are just adding more and more sins to the ones they already have. Now the time has come for them to suffer God's anger.
17 Brothers and sisters, we were separated from you for a short time. But even though we were not there, our thoughts were still with you. We wanted very much to see you, and we tried very hard to do this.
18 Yes, we wanted to come to you. I, Paul, tried more than once to come, but Satan stopped us.
19 You are our hope, our joy, and the crown we will be proud of when our Lord Jesus Christ comes.
20 You bring us honor and joy.
1 For G1063 CONJ yourselves G846 P-NPM , brethren G80 N-VPM , know G1492 V-RAI-2P our G3588 T-ASF entrance in G1529 N-ASF unto G4314 PREP you G5209 P-2AP , that G3754 CONJ it was G1096 V-2RAI-3S not G3756 PRT-N in vain G2756 A-NSF :
2 But G235 CONJ even G2532 CONJ after that we had suffered before G4310 V-2AAP-NPM , and G2532 CONJ were shamefully entreated G5195 V-APP-NPM , as G2531 ADV ye know G1492 V-RAI-2P , at G1722 PREP Philippi G5375 N-DPM , we were bold G3955 V-ADI-1P in G1722 PREP our G3588 T-DSM God G2316 N-DSM to speak G2980 V-AAN unto G4314 PREP you G5209 P-2AP the G3588 T-ASN gospel G2098 N-ASN of God G2316 N-GSM with G1722 PREP much G4183 A-DSM contention G73 N-DSM .
3 For G1063 CONJ our G2257 P-1GP exhortation G3874 N-NSF was not G3756 PRT-N of G1537 PREP deceit G4106 N-GSF , nor G3761 ADV of G1537 PREP uncleanness G167 N-GSF , nor G3777 CONJ in G1722 PREP guile G1388 N-DSM :
4 But G235 CONJ as G2531 ADV we were allowed G1381 V-RPI-1P of G3588 T-GSM God G2316 N-GSM to be put in trust G4100 V-APN with the G3588 T-ASN gospel G2098 N-ASN , even so G3779 ADV we speak G2980 V-PAI-1P ; not G3756 PRT-N as G5613 ADV pleasing G700 V-PAP-NPM men G444 N-DPM , but G235 CONJ God G2316 N-DSM , which trieth G1381 V-PAP-DSM our G3588 T-APF hearts G2588 N-APF .
5 For G1063 CONJ neither G3777 CONJ at any time G4218 PRT used we flattering words G1096 V-AOI-1P , as G2531 ADV ye know G1492 V-RAI-2P , nor G3777 CONJ a cloak G4392 N-DSF of covetousness G4124 N-GSF ; God G2316 N-NSM is witness G3144 N-NSM :
6 Nor G3777 CONJ of G1537 PREP men G444 N-GPM sought G2212 V-PAP-NPM we glory G1391 N-ASF , neither G3777 CONJ of G575 PREP you G5216 P-2GP , nor G3777 CONJ yet of G575 PREP others G243 A-GPM , when we might G1410 V-PNP-NPM have been G1511 V-PXN burdensome G922 N-DSN , as G5613 ADV the apostles G652 N-NPM of Christ G5547 N-GSM .
7 But G235 CONJ we were G1096 V-AOI-1P gentle G2261 A-NPM among G1722 PREP you G5216 P-2GP , even as ADV a nurse G5162 N-NSF cherisheth G2282 V-PAS-3S her G1438 F-3GSF children G5043 N-APN :
8 So G3779 ADV being affectionately desirous G2442 V-PNP-NPM of you G5216 P-2GP , we were willing G2106 V-IAI-1P to have imparted G3330 V-2AAN unto you G5213 P-2DP , not G3756 PRT-N the G3588 T-ASN gospel G2098 N-ASN of God G2316 N-GSM only G3440 ADV , but G235 CONJ also G2532 CONJ our own G1438 F-3GPM souls G5590 N-APF , because G1360 CONJ ye were G1096 V-RPI-2P dear G27 A-NPM unto us G2254 P-1DP .
9 For G1063 CONJ ye remember G3421 V-PAI-2P , brethren G80 N-VPM , our G3588 T-ASM labor G2873 N-ASM and G2532 CONJ travail G3449 N-ASM : for G1063 CONJ laboring G2038 V-PNP-NPM night G3571 N-GSF and G2532 CONJ day G2250 N-GSF , because we would not G3361 PRT-N be chargable G1912 V-AAN unto any G5100 X-ASM of you G5216 P-2GP , we preached G2784 V-AAI-1P unto G1519 PREP you G5209 P-2AP the G3588 T-ASN gospel G2098 N-ASN of God G2316 N-GSM .
10 Ye G5210 P-2NP are witnesses G3144 N-NPM , and G2532 CONJ God G2316 N-NSM also , how G5613 ADV holily G3743 ADV and G2532 CONJ justly G1346 ADV and G2532 CONJ unblamably G274 ADV we behaved ourselves G1096 V-AOI-1P among you G3588 T-DPM that believe G4100 V-PAP-DPM :
11 As G2509 ADV ye know G1492 V-RAI-2P how G5613 ADV we exhorted G3870 V-PAP-NPM and G2532 CONJ comforted G3888 V-PNP-NPM and G2532 CONJ charged G3140 every G1538 A-ASM one G1520 A-ASM of you G5216 P-2GP , as G5613 ADV a father G3962 N-NSM doth his G1438 F-3GSM children G5043 N-APN ,
12 That G3588 T-ASN ye G3588 T-ASN would walk G4043 V-AAN worthy G516 ADV of God G2316 N-GSM , who hath called G2564 V-PAP-GSM you G5209 P-2AP unto G1519 PREP his G1438 F-3GSM kingdom G932 N-ASF and G2532 CONJ glory G1391 N-ASF .
13 For this cause G1223 PREP also G2532 CONJ thank G2168 V-PAI-1P we G3588 T-DSM God G2316 N-DSM without ceasing G89 ADV , because G3754 CONJ , when ye received G3880 V-2AAP-NPM the G3588 T-GSM word G3056 N-ASM of God G2316 N-GSM which ye heard G189 N-GSF of G3844 PREP us G2257 P-1GP , ye received G1209 V-ADI-2P it not G3756 PRT-N as the word G3056 N-ASM of men G444 N-GPM , but G235 CONJ as G2531 ADV it is G2076 V-PXI-3S in truth G230 ADV , the word G3056 N-ASM of God G2316 N-GSM , which G3739 R-NSM effectually worketh G1754 V-PMI-3S also G2532 CONJ in G1722 PREP you G3588 T-DPM that believe G4100 V-PAP-DPM .
14 For G1063 CONJ ye G5210 P-2NP , brethren G80 N-VPM , became G1096 V-AOI-2P followers G3402 N-NPM of G3588 T-GPF the G3588 T-GPF churches G1577 N-GPF of God G2316 N-GSM which G3588 T-DSF in G1722 PREP Judea G2449 N-DSF are G5607 V-PXP-GPF in G1722 PREP Christ G5547 N-DSM Jesus G2424 N-DSM : for G3754 CONJ ye G5210 P-2NP also G2532 CONJ have suffered G3958 V-2AAI-2P like things G5024 of G3588 T-GPM your own G2398 A-GPM countrymen G4853 N-GPM , even as G2531 ADV they G846 P-APN have CONJ of CONJ the G3588 T-GPM Jews G2453 A-GPM :
15 Who both killed G615 V-AAP-GPM the G3588 T-ASM Lord G2962 N-ASM Jesus G2424 N-ASM , and G2532 CONJ their own G2398 A-APM prophets G4396 N-APM , and G2532 CONJ have persecuted G1559 V-AAP-GPM us G2248 P-1AP ; and G2532 CONJ they please G700 V-PAP-GPM not G3361 PRT-N God G2316 N-DSM , and G2532 CONJ are contrary G1727 A-GPM to all G3956 A-DPM men G444 N-DPM :
16 Forbidding G2967 V-PAP-GPM us G2248 P-1AP to speak G2980 V-AAN to the G3588 T-DPN Gentiles G1484 N-DPN that G2443 CONJ they might be saved G4982 V-APS-3P , to fill up G378 V-AAN their G3588 T-APF sins G266 N-APF always G3842 ADV : for G1161 CONJ the G3588 T-NSF wrath G3709 N-NSF is come G5348 V-AAI-3S upon G1909 PREP them G846 P-GPM to G1519 PREP the uttermost G5056 N-ASN .
17 But G1161 CONJ we G2249 P-1NP , brethren G80 N-VPM , being taken G642 V-APP-NPM from G575 PREP you G5216 P-2GP for G4314 PREP a short time G5610 N-GSF in presence G4383 N-DSN , not G3756 PRT-N in heart G2588 N-DSF , endeavored G4704 V-AAI-1P the more abundantly G4056 ADV to see G1492 V-2AAN your G3588 T-ASN face G4383 N-ASN with G1722 PREP great G4183 A-DSF desire G1939 N-DSF .
18 Wherefore G1352 CONJ we would G2309 V-AAI-1P have come G2064 V-2AAN unto G4314 PREP you G5209 P-2AP , even G3303 PRT I G1473 P-1NS Paul G3972 N-NSM , once and again G530 ADV ; but G2532 CONJ Satan G4567 N-NSM hindered G1465 V-AAI-3S us G2248 P-1AP .
19 For G1063 CONJ what G5101 I-NSF is our G2257 P-1GP hope G1680 N-NSF , or G2228 PRT joy G5479 N-NSF , or G2228 PRT crown G4735 N-NSM of rejoicing G2746 N-GSF ? Are PRT not G2228 PRT even G2532 CONJ ye G5210 P-2NP in the presence G1715 PREP of G3588 T-GSM our G3588 T-GSM Lord G2962 N-GSM Jesus G2424 N-GSM Christ G5547 at G1722 PREP his G846 P-GSM coming G3952 N-DSF ?
20 For G1063 CONJ ye G5210 P-2NP are G2075 V-PXI-2P our G3588 T-NSF glory G1391 N-NSF and G2532 CONJ joy G5479 N-NSF .
