1 Thessalonians 4:11

King James Version

¹¹And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

¹¹that you also aspire to lead a quiet life, ^(A)to mind your own business, and ^(B)to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,

¹²so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders^(A) and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.

¹²That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

¹²^(A)that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and that you may lack nothing.
