1 Thessalonians 1:9

---

← 1 Thessalonians 1:8	1 Thessalonians 1:9 (KJV)	1 Thessalonians 1:10 →
For from you sounded out the word of the Lord not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith to God-ward is spread abroad; so that we need not to speak any thing.	For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;	And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, [even] Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
