1 Thessalonians 4:12-14
New Matthew Bible
12 so that you may conduct yourselves honourably toward those who are outside, and so that nothing be lacking to you.
13 I would not, brethren, have you be ignorant concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow like others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, so then also those who sleep in Jesus, God will bring again with him.
