1 Thessalonians 4:12-14

Lexham English Bible

¹² so that you may live decently toward those outside, and may have need of nothing.

The Comfort of the Lord’s Return

¹³ Now we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning those who have fallen asleep, so that you will not grieve as also the rest, who have no hope. ¹⁴ For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, thus also God will bring those who have fallen asleep through Jesus together with him.
