orthjbc - 2Thessalonians:3

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Lemaskana (note:)finally(:note), Achim b'Moshiach, daven tefillos for us, that the Dvar Hashem will run and be lifted up in kavod, just as it is also with you,

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:2 @ and that we may be delivered from wicked anshei resha, for not all possess the emunah.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:3 @ But Ne'eman is Hashem who gives you chozek (note:)strength(:note) and is shomer over you, guarding you from the Evil One.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:4 @ And we have bittachon in Hashem concerning you, that you are doing and will continue to do what we have directed.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ Now may Hashem direct your levavot in the ahavat Hashem and into the zitzfleisch of Moshiach. ADMONITION AGAINST SCHNORRERS IN THE KEHILLAH

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we charge you, Achim b'Moshiach, b'Shem Adoneinu Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, to shun association with every one of the Achim b'Moshiach who follows the derech habatlanim (note:)way of idlers(:note) and walks not according to Moshiach's torah that was handed over and transmitted to you and which you received from us.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how it is necessary to imitate us as a mofet, a role model, because we were not batlanim among you.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ Nor did we eat lechem (note:)food(:note) from anyone gratis, but in labor and exertion lailah v'yomah we were working for the tachlis of not weighing down any one of you;

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ not because we do not have the zechut (note:)right(:note), but in order that we impart ourselves as a mofet role model to you that you might imitate us.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, this we used to direct you: that if anyone will not be a melachah (note:)worker(:note), neither let him be an ochel eater.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that some among you are leading the life of a batlan (note:)loafer(:note), not being busy with a parnasah, but being busybodies with hitarevut meddlesomeness.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:12 @ Now such persons we are directing and exhort in Moshiach Yehoshua Adoneinu to work with quietness that they may eat their own lechem.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:13 @ But you, Achim b'Moshiach, do not lose chozek in well-doing.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:14 @ But if anyone does not obey the gzeira (note:)injunction(:note) in this iggeret letter, take special notice of that one; do not associate with him, for the purpose of stirring him with a sense of bushah shame.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ And do not consider (note:)him(:note) an an oyev enemy but warn him as an ach b'Moshiach. FINAL TEFILLAH

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:16 @ Now may Elohei haShalom Himself grant you shalom in every way. Hashem be with you all.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:17 @ I, Sha'ul, send dirshu bishalom in my own handwriting, which is the distinctive siman (note:)sign(:note) in every iggeret; this is the way I write.

orthjbc@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The unmerited Chen v'Chesed Hashem of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu Yehoshua be with you all.
