1 Thessalonians 2:9

« 1 Thes 11 Thes 21 Thes 3 »

9 For you remember, brothers, our ^alabor and hardship, how ^bworking night and day so as not to be a ^cburden to any of you, we proclaimed to you the ^dgospel of God.

2 Thessalonians 3:7-9

« 2 Thes 22 Thes 31 Tim 1 »

7 For you yourselves know how you ought to ^aimitate us, because we did not act in an unruly manner among you, 8 nor did we ^aeat ¹anyone’s bread ²without paying for it, but with ^blabor and hardship we kept ^cworking night and day so that we would not be a burden to any of you; 9 not because we do not have ^athe authority, but in order to offer ourselves ^bas a model for you, so that you would imitate us.
