1 το λοιπον προσευχεσθε αδελφοι περι ημων ινα ο λογοσ του κυριου τρεχη και δοξαζηται καθωσ και προσ υμασ
1 Τὸ λοιπόν, προσεύχεσθε, ἀδελφοί, περὶ ἡμῶν, ἵνα ὁ λόγος τοῦ Κυρίου τρέχῃ καὶ δοξάζηται, καθὼς καὶ πρὸς ὑμᾶς,
2 και ινα ρυσθωμεν απο των ατοπων και πονηρων ανθρωπων ου γαρ παντων η πιστισ
2 καὶ ἵνα ῥυσθῶμεν ἀπὸ τῶν ἀτόπων καὶ πονηρῶν ἀνθρώπων· οὐ γὰρ πάντων ἡ πίστις.
3 πιστοσ δε εστιν ο κυριοσ οσ στηριξει υμασ και φυλαξει απο του πονηρου
3 πιστὸς δέ ἐστιν ὁ Κύριος, ὃς στηρίξει ὑμᾶς καὶ φυλάξει ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ.
4 πεποιθαμεν δε εν κυριω εφ υμασ οτι α παραγγελλομεν υμιν και ποιειτε και ποιησετε
4 Πεποίθαμεν δὲ ἐν Κυρίῳ ἐφ᾽ ὑμᾶς ὅτι ἃ παραγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν καὶ ποιεῖτε καὶ ποιήσετε.
5 ο δε κυριοσ κατευθυναι υμων τασ καρδιασ εισ την αγαπην του θεου και εισ την υπομονην του χριστου
5 Ὁ δὲ Κύριος κατευθύναι ὑμῶν τὰς καρδίας εἰς τὴν ἀγάπην τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ εἰς τὴν ὑπομονὴν τοῦ Χριστοῦ.
6 παραγγελλομεν δε υμιν αδελφοι εν ονοματι του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου στελλεσθαι υμασ απο παντοσ αδελφου ατακτωσ περιπατουντοσ και μη κατα την παραδοσιν ην παρελαβον παρ ημων
6 Παραγγέλλομεν δὲ ὑμῖν, ἀδελφοί, ἐν ὀνόματι τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, στέλλεσθαι ὑμᾶς ἀπὸ παντὸς ἀδελφοῦ ἀτάκτως περιπατοῦντος καὶ μὴ κατὰ τὴν παράδοσιν ἣν παρέλαβον παρ᾽ ἡμῶν.
7 αυτοι γαρ οιδατε πωσ δει μιμεισθαι ημασ οτι ουκ ητακτησαμεν εν υμιν
7 αὐτοὶ γὰρ οἴδατε πῶς δεῖ μιμεῖσθαι ἡμᾶς, ὅτι οὐκ ἠτακτήσαμεν ἐν ὑμῖν,
8 ουδε δωρεαν αρτον εφαγομεν παρα τινοσ αλλ εν κοπω και μοχθω νυκτα και ημεραν εργαζομενοι προσ το μη επιβαρησαι τινα υμων
8 οὐδὲ δωρεὰν ἄρτον ἐφάγομεν παρά τινος, ἀλλ᾽ ἐν κόπῳ καὶ μόχθῳ, νύκτα καὶ ἡμέραν ἐργαζόμενοι, πρὸς τὸ μὴ ἐπιβαρῆσαί τινα ὑμῶν·
9 ουχ οτι ουκ εχομεν εξουσιαν αλλ ινα εαυτουσ τυπον δωμεν υμιν εισ το μιμεισθαι ημασ
9 οὐχ ὅτι οὐκ ἔχομεν ἐξουσίαν, ἀλλ᾽ ἵνα ἑαυτοὺς τύπον δῶμεν ὑμῖν εἰς τὸ μιμεῖσθαι ἡμᾶς.
10 και γαρ οτε ημεν προσ υμασ τουτο παρηγγελλομεν υμιν οτι ει τισ ου θελει εργαζεσθαι μηδε εσθιετω
10 καὶ γὰρ ὅτε ἦμεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς, τοῦτο παρηγγέλλομεν ὑμῖν, ὅτι εἴ τις οὐ θέλει ἐργάζεσθαι, μηδὲ ἐσθιέτω.
11 ακουομεν γαρ τινασ περιπατουντασ εν υμιν ατακτωσ μηδεν εργαζομενουσ αλλα περιεργαζομενουσ
11 ἀκούομεν γάρ τινας περιπατοῦντας ἐν ὑμῖν ἀτάκτως, μηδὲν ἐργαζομένους, ἀλλὰ περιεργαζομένους·
12 τοισ δε τοιουτοισ παραγγελλομεν και παρακαλουμεν δια του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου ινα μετα ησυχιασ εργαζομενοι τον εαυτων αρτον εσθιωσιν
12 τοῖς δὲ τοιούτοις παραγγέλλομεν καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν διὰ τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ, ἵνα μετὰ ἡσυχίας ἐργαζόμενοι τὸν ἑαυτῶν ἄρτον ἐσθίωσιν.
13 υμεισ δε αδελφοι μη εκκακησητε καλοποιουντεσ
13 Ὑμεῖς δέ, ἀδελφοί, μὴ ἐκκακήσητε καλοποιοῦντες.
14 ει δε τισ ουχ υπακουει τω λογω ημων δια τησ επιστολησ τουτον σημειουσθε και μη συναναμιγνυσθε αυτω ινα εντραπη
14 εἰ δέ τις οὐχ ὑπακούει τῷ λόγῳ ἡμῶν διὰ τῆς ἐπιστολῆς, τοῦτον σημειοῦσθε, καὶ μὴ συναναμίγνυσθε αὐτῷ, ἵνα ἐντραπῇ·
15 και μη ωσ εχθρον ηγεισθε αλλα νουθετειτε ωσ αδελφον
15 καὶ μὴ ὡς ἐχθρὸν ἡγεῖσθε, ἀλλὰ νουθετεῖτε ὡς ἀδελφόν.
16 αυτοσ δε ο κυριοσ τησ ειρηνησ δωη υμιν την ειρηνην δια παντοσ εν παντι τροπω ο κυριοσ μετα παντων υμων
16 Αὐτὸς δὲ ὁ Κύριος τῆς εἰρήνης δῴη ὑμῖν τὴν εἰρήνην διὰ παντὸς ἐν παντὶ τρόπῳ. Ὁ Κύριος μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν.
17 ο ασπασμοσ τη εμη χειρι παυλου ο εστιν σημειον εν παση επιστολη ουτωσ γραφω
17 Ὁ ἀσπασμὸς τῇ ἐμῇ χειρὶ Παύλου, ὅ ἐστι σημεῖον ἐν πάσῃ ἐπιστολῇ· οὕτω γράφω.
18 η χαρισ του κυριου ημων ιησου χριστου μετα παντων υμων αμην
18 Ἡ χάρις τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ μετὰ πάντων ὑμῶν· ἀμήν.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Neither ought we, having committed everything to the prayers of the Saints, to be idle ourselves, and run into wickedness, and to lay hold of nothing; nor again when working good to despise that succor. For great indeed are the things which prayer for us can effect, but it is when we ourselves also work.

Since Paul also, having made infinite complaints, and said, "If any will not work, neither let him eat," stopped not at this, but added, "But ye, be not weary in well doing." "Nay, but these things are contradictory.

We have learnt from the Apostle, "the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patient waiting for Christ" for our tribulations.

But although Paul saith, "If any will not work, neither let him eat," to them he saith it; but to us he saith not this, but, on the contrary, "Be not weary in well doing." Even thus do we at home; when any two are striving with each other, we take each apart, and give them the opposite advice.

if where they are strangers they shine so bright, how great will they become when they shall have won their native land!" Thus they too will be reformed, and the word of godliness "will have free course," not less than in the apostles' times.
