1 Thessalonians 4:9-12

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ Now as to the ^(A)love of the brethren, you ^(B)have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves are ^(C)taught by God to love one another; ¹⁰ for indeed ^(D)you do practice it toward all the brethren who are in all Macedonia. But we urge you, brethren, to ^(E)excel still more, ¹¹ and to make it your ambition ^(F)to lead a quiet life and ^(G)attend to your own business and ^(H)work with your hands, just as we commanded you, ¹² so that you will ^[a](I)behave properly toward ^(J)outsiders and ^[b](K)not be in any need.
