2 Thessalonians 1:11

1:11 And in this regard we pray for you always, that our God will make you worthy of his calling ¹  and fulfill by his power your every desire for goodness and every work of faith,

2 Thessalonians 3:8

3:8 and we did not eat anyone’s food without paying. ²  Instead, in toil and drudgery we worked ³  night and day in order not to burden any of you.

[1:11]  ¹ tn Or “your calling.”

[3:8]  ² tn Grk “we did not eat bread freely from anyone.”

[3:8]  ³ tn Grk “but working,” as a continuation of the previous sentence. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started with the word “Instead” in the translation.
