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

For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: for night and day working hard, that we might be no burden to any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles, that they might be saved, to fill up the measure of their iniquities always: but wrath is coming upon them to the extremity.

and sent Timothy our brother, and a minister of God, and our fellow-labourer in the gospel of Christ, that he might stablish you, and comfort you concerning your faith:

that no man might be shaken by these tribulations; for ye yourselves know that thereunto we are appointed.
