弟兄們，你們與猶太地區上帝的各教會，就是在基督耶穌裏的各教會，有同樣的遭遇，因為你們也受了同胞的迫害，像他們受了猶太人的迫害一樣。

我們從前在腓立比蒙難受辱，這是你們知道的，可是我們還是靠着上帝給我們的勇氣，在強烈反對中把上帝的福音傳給你們。

我卻不以性命為念，只要走完我的路程，完成我從主耶穌所領受的職分，為上帝恩典的福音作見證。

弟兄們，我們要把上帝賜給馬其頓眾教會的恩惠告訴你們：他們在患難中受大考驗的時候，仍然滿有喜樂，在極度貧窮中還格外顯出他們樂捐的慷慨。

但帖撒羅尼迦的猶太人知道保羅又在庇哩亞傳上帝的道，就往那裏去，煽動挑撥羣眾。

所以，我們在上帝的各教會裏為你們誇耀，因為你們在所受的一切壓迫患難中仍牢守着耐心和信心。這正是上帝公義判斷的明證，使你們配得上他的國，你們就是為這國受苦。既然上帝是公義的，他必以患難報復那加患難給你們的人，

「我對你們說了這些事，是要使你們不至於跌倒。人要把你們趕出會堂，而且時候將到，凡殺你們的還以為是在事奉上帝。他們這樣做，是因為沒有認識父，也沒有認識我。

但不信的猶太人心裏嫉妒，聚集了些市井流氓，搭夥成羣，煽動全城的人闖進耶孫的家，要把保羅和西拉帶到民眾那裏。那些人找不着他們，就把耶孫和幾個弟兄拉到地方官那裏，喊叫着：「這些攪亂天下的人也到這裏來了，耶孫竟收留他們。這些人都違背凱撒的命令，說另有一個王耶穌。」眾人和地方官聽見這些話，就惶恐了，於是收了耶孫和其餘的人的保證金後，釋放了他們。

保羅和西拉經過暗妃坡里、亞波羅尼亞，來到帖撒羅尼迦，在那裏有猶太人的會堂。
