1 Thessalonians 2:4-6

21st Century King James Version

⁴ but as we were allowed by God to be entrusted with the Gospel, even so we speak not as pleasing men, but God, who trieth our hearts.

⁵ For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is our witness),

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