others <3062 -loipoy -> which <3588 -ho -> have <2192 -echo ->

04 : 14 For if <1487 -ei -> we believe <4100 -pisteuo -> that

Jesus <2424 -Iesous -> died <0599 -apothnesko -> and rose <0450 -

anistemi -> again <0450 -anistemi -> , even so <3779 -houto ->

them also <2532 -kai -> which sleep <2837 -koimao -> in Jesus

04 : 15 For this <5124 -touto -> we say <3004 -lego -> unto you

by the word <3056 -logos -> of the Lord <2962 -kurios -> , that

we which <3588 -ho -> are alive <2198 -zao -> [ and ] remain

<4035 -perileipo -> unto the coming <3952 -parousia -> of the

Lord <2962 -kurios -> shall not prevent <5348 -phthano -> them

which <3588 -ho -> are asleep <2837 -koimao -> .

04 : 16 For the Lord <2962 -kurios -> himself <0846 -autos ->

shall descend <2597 -katabaino -> from heaven <3772 -ouranos ->

with a shout <2752 -keleuma -> , with the voice <5456 -phone ->

05 : 03 For when <3752 -hotan -> they shall say <3004 -lego -> ,

Peace <1515 -eirene -> and safety <0803 -asphaleia -> ; then

<5119 -tote -> sudden <0160 -aiphnidios -> destruction <3639 -

olethros -> cometh <2186 -ephistemi -> upon them , as travail

05 : 04 But ye , brethren <0080 -adephos -> , are not in

darkness <4655 -skotos -> , that that day <2250 -hemera ->

drunken <3184 -methuo -> are drunken <3184 -methuo -> in the

05 : 08 But let us , who <3588 -ho -> are of the day <2250 -

<4030 -perikephalaia -> , the hope <1680 -elpis -> of salvation

<4991 -soteria -> .

05 : 09 For God <2316 -theos -> hath not appointed <5087 -

tithemi -> us to wrath <3709 -orge -> , but to obtain <4047 -

peripoiesis -> salvation <4991 -soteria -> by our Lord <2962 -
