2 Thessalonians 3:9-10

3:9 It was not because we do not have that right, but to give ourselves as an example for you to imitate. ¹  3:10 For even when we were with you, we used to give you this command: “If anyone is not willing to work, neither should he eat.”

[3:9]  ¹ tn Grk “an example for you to imitate us.”
