2 Thessalonians 3 — Context

10

Then, too, while we were with you, we insisted on this to you: that if anyone was not willing to work, neither should he eat.

12

Now we charge those who act in this way, and we beg them in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they work in silence and eat their own bread.

13

And you, brothers, do not grow weak in doing good.

14

But if anyone does not obey our word by this epistle, take note of him and do not keep company with him, so that he may be ashamed.

15

But do not be willing to consider him as an enemy; instead, correct him as a brother.

16

Then may the Lord of peace himself give you an everlasting peace, in every place. May the Lord be with all of you.
