Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of God may run, and may be glorified, even as among you;
1De cetero fratres, orate pro nobis ut sermo Dei currat, et clarificetur, sicut et apud vos:
2And that we may be delivered from importunate and evil men; for all men have not faith.
2et ut liberemur ab importunis, et malis hominibus: non enim omnium est fides.
3But God is faithful, who will strengthen and keep you from evil.
3Fidelis autem Deus est, qui confirmabit vos, et custodiet a malo.
4And we have confidence concerning you in the Lord, that the things which we command, you both do, and will do.
4Confidimus autem de vobis, in Domino, quoniam quæ præcepimus, et facitis, et facietis.
5And the Lord direct your hearts, in the charity of God, and the patience of Christ.
5Dominus autem dirigat corda vestra in caritate Dei, et patientia Christi.
6And we charge you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother walking disorderly, and not according to the tradition which they have received of us.
6Denuntiamus autem vobis, fratres, in nomine Domini nostri Jesu Christi, ut subtrahatis vos ab omni fratre ambulante inordinate, et non secundum traditionem, quam acceperunt a nobis.
7For yourselves know how you ought to imitate us: for we were not disorderly among you;
7Ipsi enim scitis quemadmodum oporteat imitari nos: quoniam non inquieti fuimus inter vos:
8Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nothing, but in labour and in toil we worked night and day, lest we should be chargeable to any of you.
8neque gratis panem manducavimus ab aliquo, sed in labore, et in fatigatione, nocte et die operantes, ne quem vestrum gravaremus.
9Not as if we had not power: but that we might give ourselves a pattern unto you, to imitate us.
9Non quasi non habuerimus potestatem, sed ut nosmetipsos formam daremus vobis ad imitandum nos.
10For also when we were with you, this we declared to you: that, if any man will not work, neither let him eat.
10Nam et cum essemus apud vos, hoc denuntiabamus vobis: quoniam si quis non vult operari, nec manducet.
11For we have heard there are some among you who walk disorderly, working not at all, but curiously meddling.
11Audivimus enim inter vos quosdam ambulare inquiete, nihil operantes, sed curiose agentes.
12Now we charge them that are such, and beseech them by the Lord Jesus Christ, that, working with silence, they would eat their own bread.
12Iis autem, qui ejusmodi sunt, denuntiemus, et obsecramus in Domino Jesu Christo, ut cum silentio operantes, suum panem manducent.
13But you, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
13Vos autem, fratres, nolite deficere benefacientes.
14And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed:
14Quod si quis non obedit verbo nostro per epistolam, hunc notate, et ne commisceamini cum illo ut confundatur:
15Yet do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.
15et nolite quasi inimicum existimare, sed corripite ut fratrem.
16Now the Lord of peace himself give you everlasting peace in every place. The Lord be with you all.
16Ipse autem Dominus pacis det vobis pacem sempiternam in omni loco. Dominus sit cum omnibus vobis.
17The salutation of Paul with my own hand; which is the sign in every epistle. So I write.
17Salutatio, mea manu Pauli: quod est signum in omni epistola, ita scribo.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
18Gratia Domini nostri Jesu Christi cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
