1 Thessalonians 2:9-12

Tree of Life Version

⁹ For you recall, brothers and sisters, our labor and hardship—working night and day, so as not to burden any of you while we proclaimed to you the Good News of God. ¹⁰ You are witnesses, along with God, of how devoutly and righteously and blamelessly we behaved toward you who believe. ¹¹ For you know how, as a father with his own children, ¹² we exhorted and encouraged and urged each one of you to walk in a manner worthy of God, who calls you into His own kingdom and glory.
