1 Thessalonians 3:3-4

EasyEnglish Bible

³ You are receiving many troubles. We did not want anyone among you to turn away from Christ because of that. You already know that we who are believers must receive troubles like that.

⁴ Even when we were there with you, we told you that troubles would come. We told you before the troubles came and now it has really happened. You know that it is true.
