1 Thessalonians 4:10-12
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

Nevertheless we urge you, brothers, to progress even more,(A) 11 and to aspire to live a tranquil life, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your [own] hands, as we instructed you, 12 that you may conduct yourselves properly toward outsiders and not depend on anyone.
