¹¹ Now may ^[a]our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way unto you: ¹² and the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we also do toward you; ¹³ to the end he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before ^[b]our God and Father, at the ^[c]coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints. ^[d]

⁹ But concerning love of the brethren ye have no need that one write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another; ¹⁰ for indeed ye do it toward all the brethren that are in all Macedonia. But we exhort you, brethren, that ye abound more and more; ¹¹ and that ye ^[a]study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your hands, even as we charged you; ¹² that ye may walk becomingly toward them that are without, and may have need of nothing.
