2 Thessalonians 3:8-9 We did not eat anyone’s food without paying for it. Instead, we worked hard and struggled night and day in order not to be a burden to any of you.

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁸ We did not eat anyone’s food without paying for it. Instead, we worked hard and struggled night and day in order not to be a burden to any of you. ⁹ It is not because we do not have the right, but to make ourselves an example for you to imitate us.
