Latin text · Lake, LCL 24:298

Deus autem et pater domini nostri Iesu Christi, et ipse sempiternus pontifex, dei filius Iesus Christus, aedificet vos in fide et veritate et in omni mansuetudine et sine iracundia et in patientia et in longanimitate et tolerantia et castitate; et det vobis sortem et partem inter sanctos suos, et nobis vobiscum, et omnibus qui sunt sub caelo, qui credituri sunt in dominum nostrum et deum Iesum Christum et in ipsius patrem, qui resuscitavit eum a mortuis.

English · Claude translation

Now may the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the eternal high priest himself, the Son of God, Jesus Christ, build you up in faith and truth and in all gentleness and without anger, and in patience and forbearance and endurance and purity; and may he give you a lot and share among his saints, and to us with you, and to all under heaven who will believe in our Lord and God Jesus Christ and in his Father, who raised him from the dead.

Notes

Translation notes

“Our Lord and God Jesus Christ” (dominum nostrum et deum Iesum Christum): the Latin calls Christ “God.”
The words “and God” (et deum) are not reflected in the Ante-Nicene Fathers translation (1885), which followed an earlier edition; Lake's text includes them.

Notes on the original text

Digital text corrected (OCR error in the digitized Latin; capitals lost in the digitization restored): lesus → Iesus; dorninum → dominum; iesu / iesum christum → Iesu / Iesum Christum.
