1 Thessalonians 2:4-6

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁴ but because we have been approved of God that he might entrust us with the gospel, even so we speak, not as pleasing men, but God, who tries our hearts.

⁵ For we were never flatterers in the word, as ye know, nor tainted with covetousness, God is witness,

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