1 Ka'omea-na, uma-pi kidadahi kalentora-kai. Toe pai' ki'uli', agina aku' mepopea hi ngata Atena, pai' ompi'-ta Timotius kipahawa' tilou hi koi' ompi'–ompi' hi Tesalonika. Timotius toei, doo hampobagoa-kai hi rala pobago Alata'ala, apa' natulungi-kai mpokeni Kareba Kristus. Jadi', kipahawa' mpu'u-imi Timotius tilou, ki'uli'-ki: "Iko-mi to hilou mpokinomo ompi'-ta hi Tesalonika, nurohoi pai' nupomotede' pepangala'-ra."
2 (3:1)
3 Kipahawa'-i tilou toe, bona neo' mpai' ria haduaa to mokalingka pepangala'-ra sabana pebalinai' to mporumpa'-koi. Apa' ta'inca moto ompi', pebalinai' to mporumpa'-ta toe, gati patuju Alata'ala ami'-mi hi kita' to Kristen.
4 Bula-kai retu-pidi wengi, ki'uli' ami'-mi karia-ra mpai' to mpobalinai'-ta. Hiaa' madupa' mpu'u-mi, hewa to ni'inca moto-mi ompi'.
5 Jadi', toe-die pai' kuhubui-i Timotius tilou-e, bona ku'inca kabeiwa-na pepangala'-ni, apa' uma mpu'u-pi kudadahi kalentora-ku. Pai' koro'-a, nee–neo' nasori Magau' Topesori-koi duu'-na napanawu'-koi pai' uma-pi ria kalaua lenge'-kai mpokeni Kareba Lompe' hi koi'.
6 Jadi', hewa toe lau, rata nculii'-imi Timotius hi rehe'i, pai' naparata-mikakai kareba to mpakagoe'-kai. Na'uli': "To Tesalonika toera ria, moroho moto pepangala'-ra pai' ahi'-ra. Rapolio oa'-ta pai' lentora wo'o-ra-rawo doko' mpohirua'-taka, hewa kita' wo'o doko' mpohirua'-raka."
7 Mpo'epe kareba to nakeni Timotius toe, tetanta'u-makai ompi'. Nau' rabalinai' pai' rapakasusa'-kai hi rei, tetanta'u oa' nono-kai mpo'epe kamoroho-na pepangala'-ni.
8 Jadi', morawa-mi nono-kai, apa' moroho pepangala'-ni hi Pue' Yesus.
