1 Thessalonians 2:4

← 1 Thessalonians 2:3 1 Thessalonians 2:4 (KJV) 1 Thessalonians 2:5 →
For our exhortation [was] not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:
But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.
For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God [is] witness:
