2 Thessalonians 3
1 As for the other matters, [our] fellow believers, pray for us that more and more [people will] hear [PRS] our message [about our] Lord [Jesus]. Pray that they will believe this message, as you [have done].
Katapustapusan, mga kapatid, ay inyong idalangin kami, upang ang salita ng Panginoon ay lumaganap at luwalhatiin nawa na gaya rin naman sa inyo;
2 Pray also for us that we will be rescued {that God will rescue us} from those very perverse/evil people [here] who [cause us to suffer. Pray like that] because [they and many others] refuse to believe [LIT] [this message].
At upang kami ay mangaligtas sa mga taong walang katuwiran at masasama; sapagka't hindi lahat ay mayroong pananampalataya.
3 [Remember that our] Lord [Jesus] is trustworthy! [So we are sure that] he will cause you to continue to be steadfast. [We are also sure that] he will protect you from [Satan], the evil one (OR, from evil).
Nguni't tapat ang Panginoon na magpapatibay sa inyo, at sa inyo'y magiingat sa masama.
4 [Because of your close relationship with our] Lord [Jesus], we are confident that you are obeying what we have commanded you, and we are confident that you will obey what we are commanding [you in this letter].
At may pagkakatiwala kami sa Panginoon tungkol sa inyo, na inyong ginagawa at gagawin naman ang mga bagay na aming iniuutos.
5 [We pray that our] Lord [Jesus] would enable you to continue [knowing] that God loves you. [We pray] also that Christ will cause you to continue [being] steadfast (OR, being steadfast as he [was steadfast]).
At patnubayan nawa ng Panginoon ang inyong mga puso sa pagibig ng Dios, at sa pagtitiis ni Cristo.
6 [Our] fellow believers, we command you, with the authority [MTY] that our Lord Jesus Christ [has given to us], that you stop associating with every fellow believer who is lazy and refuses to work. That is, you must stay away from those who are not [conducting their lives] in the manner that we taught you.
Aming inuutos nga sa inyo, mga kapatid, sa pangalan ng ating Panginoong Jesucristo, na kayo'y magsihiwalay sa bawa't kapatid na lumalakad ng walang kaayusan, at hindi ayon sa aral na tinanggap nila sa amin.
7 [We tell you this] because you yourselves know that you should [behave] like we [behaved]. We (did not just sit [around] without working/were never lazy) [while we were living] among you.
Sapagka't kayo rin ang nangakakaalam kung paano kami ay inyong dapat tularan: sapagka't kami ay hindi nangagugali ng walang kaayusan sa inyo;
8 Specifically, we did not eat anyone’s food if we did not pay [that person] for it. Instead, we worked very hard ([to support ourselves/to earn the money to buy what we needed]). We worked hard [DOU] during the day and during the night, in order that we would not have to depend on any of you [to supply what we needed].
Ni nagsikain man kami ng walang bayad ng tinapay ng sinoman; kundi sa pagpapagal at sa pagdaramdam na gumagawa gabi't araw, upang kami ay huwag maging pasanin sa kanino man sa inyo:
9 We have always had the right [to depend on you for money, but instead we worked hard in order to make ourselves] examples for you, in order that you should behave like we behave.
Hindi dahil sa kami ay walang karapatan, kundi upang kami ay mangakapagbigay sa inyo ng isang uliran, upang kami ay inyong tularan.
10 Remember that when we were [there] with you, we kept commanding you that if any [fellow believer] refuses to work, [you should not give] him food to eat.
Sapagka't noon pa mang kami ay kasama ninyo, ay aming iniutos ito sa inyo, Kung ang sinoman ay ayaw gumawa, ay huwag din namang kumain.
11 [We are commanding the same thing] again now, because someone has told us that some of you are lazy and not working at all, just interfering [with what other people are doing]!
Sapagka't aming nababalitaan ang ilan sa inyo na nagsisilakad ng walang kaayusan, na hindi man lamang nagsisigawa, kundi mga mapakialam sa mga bagay ng iba.
12 We command those fellow believers who are not working, and urge [them] by the authority [MTY] of our Lord Jesus Christ, that they settle down and (support themselves by working/work to earn money to buy what they need).
Sa mga gayon nga ay aming iniuutos at ipinamamanhik sa Panginoong Jesucristo, na sila'y magsigawang may katahimikan, at magsikain ng kanilang sariling tinapay.
13 Fellow believers! Do not ever get tired of doing what is right!
Nguni't kayo, mga kapatid, huwag kayong mangapagod sa paggawa ng mabuti.
14 If any [fellow believer refuses to work] and does not obey what I have written in this letter, ([publicly] identify that person/tell the congregation what that person is doing). Then do not associate with him, in order that he may become ashamed.
At kung ang sinoma'y hindi tumalima sa aming salita sa pamamagitan ng sulat na ito, inyong tandaan ang taong yaon, upang huwag kayong makisama sa kaniya, nang siya'y mahiya.
15 Do not think of him as though he was [your] enemy; instead, warn him as [you would warn your other] fellow believers.
At gayon ma'y huwag ninyong ariin siyang kaaway, kundi inyo siyang paalalahanan tulad sa kapatid.
16 [I pray that our] Lord [Jesus] himself, who [gives inner] peace [to his people], will give [inner] peace to you always (and in every situation/whatever happens). 2 Thessalonians 3:16b-18 I [pray that our] Lord [Jesus will continue to] help you all.
Ngayon ang Panginoon din ng kapayapaan ay magbigay nawa sa inyo ng kapayapaan sa buong panahon at sa lahat ng paraan. Ang Panginoon ay sumainyo nawang lahat.
17 Now, having taken the pen from my scribe, I, Paul, am sending this greeting to you as I write this myself [SYN]. I do this in all my letters in order that you may know that it is truly I who have sent this letter. This is how I always end my letters.
Ang bati na sinulat ng aking sariling kamay, akong si Pablo, na siyang tanda sa bawa't sulat: gayon sumusulat ako.
18 I pray that our Lord Jesus Christ will continue to act kindly to you all.
Ang biyaya ng ating Panginoong Jesucristo ay sumainyo nawang lahat.
