7 But we became gentle among you, even as a nurse ever cherishes her children:
8 thus yearning over you, we well-approved to impart to you not only the evangelism of Elohim but also our own souls; because you became beloved to us.
9 For you remember, brothers, our labor and toil - working night and day to not overburden any of you we preached to you the evangelism of Elohim.
10 You and Elohim are witnesses, how mercifully and justly and unblameably we became among you who trust:
11 exactly as you know how we besought and consoled and witnessed each one of you as a father his children;
12 that you witness to walk worthy of Elohim who calls you to his sovereigndom and glory.
