And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; (4:11) That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and [that] ye may have lack of nothing (4:12) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope (4:13) For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him (4:14) For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep (4:15) For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: (4:16) com1 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (4:17) 81 75 Wherefore comfort one another with these words
(4:18)
