2 Thessalonians 3:9

not that we have not such power, but that we might be ourselves an example for you to imitate.

Have we not power to eat and drink?

For ye yourselves know how ye ought to imitate us; for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you,

not seeking glory from men, neither from you, nor from others, though we might have been burdensome, as apostles of Christ.

nor a scrip for the journey, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor stick: for the workman is worthy of his food.

For I have given you an example, that just as I have done to you, ye should do also.

Let him who is a learner of the word communicate to his instructor in all good things.

For hereunto have ye been called, because Christ also hath suffered for you, leaving you a pattern, that ye should follow his steps;
