2 Thessalonians 3:7
NASB
2 Thes 3:7
&
For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example, because we did not act in an undisciplined manner among you,
2 Thes 3:8
&
nor did we eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but with labor and hardship we {kept} working night and day so that we would not be a burden to any of you;
2 Thes 3:9
&
not because we do not have the right {to this,} but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you, so that you would follow our example.
