| 4:1 | 還有，弟兄們，我們在主耶穌裡請求並勸勉你們，你們既然接受了我們的教訓，知道當怎樣行，並怎樣討神的喜悅，就要照你們現在所行的，更加充盈超越。 Furthermore, brothers, we ask and exhort you in the Lord Jesus that even as you received from us how you ought to walk and please God, even as indeed you do walk, that you abound still more. |
| 4:2 | 你們原曉得，我們藉著主耶穌給了你們什麼囑咐。 For you know what charges we gave you through the Lord Jesus. |
| 4:3 | 神的旨意就是要你們聖別，禁戒淫亂； For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from fornication; |
| 4:4 | 要你們各人曉得，怎樣用聖別和尊貴，持守自己的器皿， That each one of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, |
| 4:5 | 不放縱私慾的邪情，像那不認識神的外邦人； Not in the passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God; |
| 4:6 | 也不要在這事上越分，佔他弟兄的便宜；因為關於這一切的事，主必報應，就如我們先前告訴過你們，又鄭重見證過的。 That no one overstep and take advantage of his brother in the matter, because the Lord is the avenger concerning all these things, even as we also said before to you and solemnly charged. |
| 4:7 | 神本是在聖別中召了我們，並不是要我們沾染污穢。 For God has not called us for uncleanness but in sanctification. |
| 4:8 | 所以那棄絕的，不是棄絕人，乃是棄絕那位將祂的聖靈賜給你們的神。 Consequently, he who rejects, rejects not man but God, who also gives His Holy Spirit to you. |
| 4:9 | 關於弟兄相愛，不用我寫信給你們，因為你們自己蒙了神的教導，叫你們彼此相愛； Now concerning brotherly love, you have no need for me to write to you, for you yourselves are taught of God to love one another; |
| 4:10 | 其實，你們向全馬其頓所有的弟兄，就是這樣行。但弟兄們，我們勸你們要更加充盈超越； For you also do this unto all the brothers in the whole of Macedonia. But we exhort you, brothers, to abound still more |
| 4:11 | 又要立定志向作安靜人，辦自己的事，親手作工，正如我們曾囑咐過你們的， And to aspire to be quiet and attend to your own affairs and work with your hands, even as we charged you, |
| 4:12 | 叫你們對外人行事端正得體，自己也就沒有什麼缺乏了。 That you may walk becomingly toward those outside and may have need of nothing. |
| 4:13 | 關於睡了的人，弟兄們，我們不願意你們無知無識，恐怕你們憂傷，像其餘沒有盼望的人一樣。 But we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who are sleeping, that you would not grieve even as also the rest who have no hope. |
| 4:14 | 因為我們若信耶穌死而復活了，神也必照樣將那些已經藉著耶穌睡了的人與祂一同帶來。 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose, so also those who have fallen asleep through Jesus, God will bring with Him. |
| 4:15 | 我們現在憑著主的話，告訴你們這件事，就是我們這些活著還存留到主來臨的人，絕不能在那已經睡了的人之先； For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are living, who are left remaining unto the coming of the Lord, shall by no means precede those who have fallen asleep; |
| 4:16 | 因為主必親自從天降臨，有發令的呼叫，有天使長的聲音，又有神的號聲，那在基督裡死了的人必先復活， Because the Lord Himself, with a shout of command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, will descend from heaven, and the dead in Christ will rise first. |
| 4:17 | 然後我們這些活著還存留的人，必同時與他們一起被提到雲裡，在空中與主相會；這樣，我們就要和主常常同在。 Then we who are living, who are left remaining, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and thus we will be always with the Lord. |
| 4:18 | 所以你們當用這些話彼此安慰。 Therefore comfort one another with these words. |
