1 Thessalonians 4:11 in Context — 1 Thessalonians 4

9 Mas quanto ao amor fraternal, não precisais que eu vos escreva, pois vós mesmos estais instruídos por Deus que vos ameis uns aos outros.

10 Pois, de fato, [já] fazeis assim a todos os irmãos de toda a Macedônia. Porém, irmãos, vos exortamos que façais[isso] ainda mais.

11 E procurai viver quietos, trantando dos vossos próprios assuntos, e trabalhando com as vossas próprias mãos, como já vos mandamos;

12 para que andeis de maneira respeitosa com os que estão de fora, e não necessiteis de nada.

13 Mas irmãos, não quero que desconheçais acerca dos que morreram, para que não vos entristeçais como os outros que não têm esperança.
