ESV

1	Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus, that as you received from us how you ought to live and to please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and more.
2	For you know what instructions we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
3	For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality;
4	that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor,
5	not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God;
6	that no one transgress and wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you.
7	For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness.
8	Therefore whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
9	Now concerning brotherly love you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another,
10	for that indeed is what you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to do this more and more,
11	and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you,
12	so that you may live properly before outsiders and be dependent on no one.
13	But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope.
14	For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.
15	For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep.
16	For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first.
17	Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord.
18	Therefore encourage one another with these words.

NIV

1	Finally, brothers, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more.
2	For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.
3	It is God's will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality;
4	that each of you should learn to control his own body in a way that is holy and honorable,
5	not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God;
6	and that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you.
7	For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.
8	Therefore, he who rejects this instruction does not reject man but God, who gives you his Holy Spirit.
9	Now about brotherly love we do not need to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.
10	And in fact, you do love all the brothers throughout Macedonia. Yet we urge you, brothers, to do so more and more.
11	Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you,
12	so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.
13	Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope.
14	We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
15	According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep.
16	For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17	After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
18	Therefore encourage each other with these words.

NLT

1	Finally, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you in the name of the Lord Jesus to live in a way that pleases God, as we have taught you. You live this way already, and we encourage you to do so even more.
2	For you remember what we taught you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.
3	God's will is for you to be holy, so stay away from all sexual sin.
4	Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor–
5	not in lustful passion like the pagans who do not know God and his ways.
6	Never harm or cheat a Christian brother in this matter by violating his wife, for the Lord avenges all such sins, as we have solemnly warned you before.
7	God has called us to live holy lives, not impure lives.
8	Therefore, anyone who refuses to live by these rules is not disobeying human teaching but is rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
9	But we don't need to write to you about the importance of loving each other, for God himself has taught you to love one another.
10	Indeed, you already show your love for all the believers throughout Macedonia. Even so, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you to love them even more.
11	Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.
12	Then people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others.
13	And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have died so you will not grieve like people who have no hope.
14	For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died.
15	We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet him ahead of those who have died.
16	For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the Christians who have died will rise from their graves.
17	Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever.
18	So encourage each other with these words.

KJV

1	Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
2	For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3	For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4	That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5	Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
6	That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7	For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8	He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
9	But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
10	And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
11	And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
12	That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
13	But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14	For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15	For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16	For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17	Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18	Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
