2 Thessalonians 3:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]For ye yourselves know, (A)how ye ought to follow us: (B)for we behaved not ourselves inordinately among you,
8 Neither took we bread of any man for nought: but we wrought with labor and travail night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you.
9 Not because we have not authority, but that we might make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
