1 Od Pavla i Silvana i Timotija crkvi solunskoj u Bogu Ocu našem i Gospodu Isusu Hristu: 2 Blagodat vam i mir od Boga Oca našeg i Gospoda Isusa Hrista. 3 Dužni smo svagda zahvaljivati Bogu za vas, braćo, kao što treba; jer raste vrlo vera vaša, i množi se ljubav svakog od vas među vama, 4 tako da se mi sami hvalimo vama crkvama Božjima, vašim trpljenjem i verom u svim vašim gonjenjima i nevoljama koje podnosite, 5 za znak pravednog suda Božjeg da se udostojite carstva Božjeg, za koje i stradate. 6 Jer je pravedno u Boga da vrati muke onima koji vas muče; 7 a vama koje muče pokoj s nama kad se pokaže Gospod Isus s neba s anđelima sile svoje 8 u ognju plamenom, koji će dati osvetu onima koji ne poznaju Boga i ne slušaju jevanđelja Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista; 9 koji će primiti muku, pogibao večnu od lica Gospodnjeg i od slave Njegove, 10 kad dođe da se proslavi u svetima svojim, i divan da bude u svima koji Ga verovaše; jer se primi svedočanstvo naše među vama u onaj dan. 11 Zato se i molimo svagda za vas da vas udostoji Bog naš zvanja, i ispuni svaku radost dobrote i delo vere u sili; 12 da se proslavi ime Gospoda našeg Isusa Hrista u vama i vi u Njemu, po blagodati Boga našeg i Gospoda Isusa Hrista.

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).
The greater part of men do and devise all things with a view to ingratiate themselves with rulers, and with those who are greater than themselves; and they account it a great thing, and think themselves happy, if they can obtain that object.

… shall the Son of Man also confess before the angels of God, but he that denieth Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God;" and Paul in another place says, "When the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his angels."
