1 Thessalonians 2:6-9 not seeking glory from men, neither from you, nor from others, though we might have been burdensome, as apostles of Christ.

Haweis⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ not seeking glory from men, neither from you, nor from others, though we might have been burdensome, as apostles of Christ. ⁷ But we were gentle in the midst of you, as a nurse cherisheth her own infants. ⁸ So, tenderly affected towards you, we could with pleasure have imparted to you not the gospel of God only, but our own lives also, because ye were beloved by us. ⁹ For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: for night and day working hard, that we might be no burden to any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
