1 Thessalonians 2:5-7
Revised Standard Version
1 Thessalonians 2:5-7
Revised Standard Version
5 For we never used either words of flattery, as you know, or a cloak for greed, as God is witness; 6 nor did we seek glory from men, whether from you or from others, though we might have made demands as apostles of Christ. 7 But we were gentle[a] among you, like a nurse taking care of her children.
