2 Thessalonians 3:8-10
Jubilee Bible 2000
8 neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought, but working with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you,
9 Not because we did not have authority, but to give you an example that you might imitate us.
10 For even when we were with you, this we declared unto you, that if anyone desires not to work neither should he eat.

2 Thessalonians 3:8-10
New International Version
8 nor did we eat anyone’s food without paying for it. On the contrary, we worked(A) night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help,(B) but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate.(C) 10 For even when we were with you,(D) we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work(E) shall not eat.”
