So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded. | So then, let’s not sleep as others do, but let’s be alert and sober. |
So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing. | Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up, just as you also are doing. |
See that no one pays back evil for evil, but always try to do good to each other and to all people. | See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek what is good for one another and for all people. |
Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. | Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus. |
But test everything that is said. Hold on to what is good. Stay away from every kind of evil. | But examine everything; hold firmly to that which is good, abstain from every form of evil. |
God will make this happen, for he who calls you is faithful. | Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will do it. |
