    7For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

    8Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:

  6. 1 Thessalonians 2:1–10Rank 6 from verse 18
    Open

    1FOR yourselves, brethren, know our entrance in unto you, that it was not in vain:

    2But even after that we had suffered before, and were shamefully entreated, as ye know, at Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the gospel of God with much contention.

    3For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:

    4But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

    5For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:

    6Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.

    7But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:

    8So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.

    9For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

    10Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

    3Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:

    4But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

    5In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

    6By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

    7By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

    8By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;

    9As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;

    10As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

    11O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged.
