1 Thessalonians 4:8-12

English Standard Version

⁸ Therefore ^(A)whoever disregards this, disregards not man but God, ^(B)who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

⁹ Now concerning ^(C)brotherly love ^(D)you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves have been ^(E)taught by God ^(F)to love one another, ¹⁰ for that indeed is what ^(G)you are doing to all the brothers throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers, to ^(H)do this more and more, ¹¹ and to aspire ^(I)to live quietly, and ^(J)to mind your own affairs, and ^(K)to work with your hands, as we instructed you, ¹² so that you may ^(L)walk properly before ^(M)outsiders and be dependent on no one.
