2 Thessalonians 3:6-12 We charge you, brothers, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from any brother who lives in idleness, instead of following the teaching you received from us.

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ We charge you, brothers, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from any brother who lives in idleness, instead of following the teaching you received from us. ⁷ For you know yourselves what you must do to follow my example, for I was not idle when I was with you; ⁸ I did not eat anybody's bread without paying for it, but with toil and labor I worked night and day, in order not to be a burden to any of you. ⁹ Not that I had not a right to my support, but to give you in my own conduct an example to imitate. ¹⁰ When I was with you, I gave you this rule: "If anyone refuses to work, give him nothing to eat!" ¹¹ For we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere busybodies, not doing any work. ¹² Now with the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ we charge and exhort such people to keep quiet and do their work and earn their own living.
