1 Thessalonians 4:9-12
New International Version
9 Now about your love for one another(A) we do not need to write to you,(B) for you yourselves have been taught by God(C) to love each other.(D) 10 And in fact, you do love all of God’s family throughout Macedonia.(E) Yet we urge you, brothers and sisters, to do so more and more,(F) 11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands,(G) just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders(H) and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.
1 Thessalonians 4:9-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
9 Now concerning love of the brothers and sisters, you do not need to have anyone write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another,(A) 10 and indeed you do love all the brothers and sisters throughout Macedonia. But we urge you, brothers and sisters, to do so more and more, 11 to aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we directed you,(B) 12 so that you may behave properly toward outsiders and be dependent on no one.(C)
