1 Resta, pues, hermanos, que oreis por nosotros, y la palabra de Dios se propague, y sea glorificada, como lo es entre vosotros: 2 Y que seamos librados de hombres importunos, y perversos: porque la fé no es de todos. 3 Mas fiel es Dios, que os confirmará, y guardará de mal. 4 Y confiamos en el Señor de vosotros, que haceis, y haréis lo que os mandamos. 5 Y el Señor enderece vuestros corazones en el amor de Dios, y en la paciencia de Christo. 6 Mas os denunciamos, hermanos, en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo, que os apartéis de todo hermano que anduviere fuera de órden, y no según la tradición, que recibieron de nosotros. 7 Porque vosotros mismos sabéis cómo debéis imitarnos: por quanto no anduvimos desordenadamente entre vosotros. 8 Ni comimos de valde el pan de alguno, antes con trabajo, y con fatiga, trabajando de noche, y de día, por no ser de gravámen á ninguno de vosotros: 9 No porque no tuviésemos potestad, sino para ofreceros en nosotros mismos un dechado que imitáseis. 10 Porque aún quando estábamos con vosotros os denunciábamos esto: Que si alguno no quiere trabajar, no coma. 11 Por quanto hemos oido que andan algunos entre vosotros inquietos que en nada entienden, sino en indagar lo que no les importa. 12 A estos pues que así se portan, les denunciamos, y rogamos en nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo, que coman su pan, trabajando en silencio. 13 Y vosotros, hermanos, no os canséis de hacer bien 14 Y si alguno no obedeciere á lo que ordenamos por nuestra carta, notadle á éste tal, y no tengáis comunicación con él, para que se avergüence: 15 Mas no lo mireis como á enemigo; antes bien corregidle como á hermano. 16 Y el mismo Señor de la paz os dé la paz sin fin en todo lugar. El Señor sea con todos vosotros. 17 La salutación de mi mano, Pablo; que es la señal en cada carta. Así escribo. 18 La gracia de nuestro Señor Jesu-Christo sea con todos vosotros. Amén.

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.
