1 Thessalonians 4:9-12

MLV(i) 9 Now concerning brotherly-love, you have no need for someone to write to you; for you yourselves are taught by God, that you should love one another; 10 for you are also practicing it toward all the brethren who are in the whole of Macedonia. But brethren, we encourage you, that you abound even more, 11 and that you make it your aim to be living quiet lives and to do your own things, and to work with your own hands (just-as we commanded you), 12 in order that you may walk decently toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
