Disciples’ Literal New Testament
8 I robbed[a] other churches, having taken rations[b] from them for your ministry! 9 And while being present with you and having been in-need, I did not burden anyone— for the brothers having come from Macedonia supplied my need. And in every way I kept and will keep myself unburdensome to you.
