1 Thessalonians 2:9-12

English Standard Version

⁹ For you remember, brothers, ^(A)our labor and toil: we ^(B)worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, while we proclaimed to you the gospel of God. ¹⁰ You are witnesses, and ^(C)God also, ^(D)how holy and righteous and blameless was our conduct toward you believers. ¹¹ For you know how, ^(E)like a father with his children, ¹² we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and ^(F)charged ^(G)you to walk in a manner worthy of God, ^(H)who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.
