Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁶ nor were we seeking human glory either from you or from others. We might have appeared with weight as Christ's apostles; ⁷ but we were gentle among you. Our affectionate regard for you being such, as that with which a nursing mother would cherish her own children, ⁸ we were willing to impart to you not only the glad tidings of God, but even our own lives, because you were dear to us. ⁹ For you, brethren, remember our labour and our toil: for working day and night that we might not be burthensome to any of you, we proclaimed to you the glad tidings of God.
