Pavao, Silvan i Timotej Crkvi Solunjana u Bogu Ocu našemu i Gospodinu Isusu Kristu. Milost vam i mir od Boga Oca i Gospodina Isusa Krista! Zahvaljivati moramo Bogu uvijek za vas, braćo, kao što dolikuje jer izvanredno raste vaša vjera i množi se ljubav svakoga od vas prema drugima, tako da se mi sami po crkvama Božjim vama ponosimo zbog vaše postojanosti i vjere u svim progonstvima i nevoljama koje podnosite. One su najava pravednog Suda Božjega: da ćete se naći dostojni kraljevstva Božjega za koje i trpite. Jer pravo je da Bog vašim mučiteljima mukom, a vama, mučenima, zajedno s nama spokojem uzvrati kad se Gospodin Isus objavi s nama, zajedno s anđelima svoje moći, u ognju žarkome i osveti se onima koji ne poznaju Boga i ne pokoravaju se evanđelju Gospodina našega Isusa. Oni će biti kažnjeni vječnom propašću, daleko od lica Gospodnjega i od slave njegova veličanstva, kada - u onaj Dan - dođe da se proslavi u svojim svetima i da se prodiči u svima koji povjerovaše. Jer povjerovalo se svjedočanstvu našemu među vama. Zato i molimo uvijek za vas da vas Bog učini dostojnima poziva i snažno dovede do punine svako vaše nastojanje oko dobra i djelo vaše vjere te da se proslavi ime Gospodina našega Isusa u vama i vi u njemu - po milosti Boga našega i Gospodina Isusa Krista.
