1 Thessalonians 4:6-8

4:6 In this matter no one should violate the rights of his brother or take advantage of him, ¹  because the Lord is the avenger in all these cases, ²  as we also told you earlier and warned you solemnly. 4:7 For God did not call us to impurity but in holiness. 4:8 Consequently the one who rejects this is not rejecting human authority ³  but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

[4:6]  ¹ tn Grk “not to transgress against or defraud his brother in the matter,” continuing the sentence of vv. 3-5.

[4:6]  ² tn Grk “concerning all these things.”

[4:8]  ³ tn Grk “rejecting man.”
