2 Thessalonians 3:9

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.

nor scrip for the way, nor two body coats, nor sandals, nor a staff: for the workman is worthy of his nourishment.

Have we not a right to eat and to drink?

Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things.

nor seeking glory from men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have been a charge as Christ's apostles;

For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us, because we have not walked disorderly among you;

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

For to this have ye been called; for Christ also has suffered for you, leaving you a model that ye should follow in his steps:

Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening.

I entreat you therefore, be my imitators.
