2 Thessalonians 3:8-10

New Matthew Bible

⁸ Neither did we take bread from anyone for nothing, but worked with labour and travail night and day, because we did not wish to be burdensome to any of you – ⁹ not that we had no right, but to make ourselves an example for you, to follow us. ¹⁰ For when we were with you, this we warned you of: that if there were any who would not work, the same should not eat.
