<P> Maranatha ( Aramaic : either מרנא תא : maranâ thâ ' or מרן אתא : maran ' athâ ' , Greek : Μαραναθα ) is a two - word Aramaic formula occurring only once in the New Testament ( see Aramaic of Jesus ) . It appears in Didache 10 : 6 , which is part of the Apostolic Fathers ' collection . It is transliterated into Greek letters rather than translated and , given the nature of early manuscripts , the lexical difficulty lies in determining just which two Aramaic words constitute the single Greek expression , found at the end of Paul 's First Epistle to the Corinthians ( 1 Cor 16 : 22 ) . </P>
