1 Thessalonians 2:8

|---|---|---|
But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
|
So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
|
For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
