2 Thessalonians 3:9

Hebrew Names version (HNV)

not because we don't have the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, that you should imitate us.

See the chapter Copy

Take no bag for your journey, neither two coats, nor shoes, nor staff: for the laborer is worthy of his food.

For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.

I beg you therefore, be imitators of me.

But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches.

nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as emissaries of Messiah.

For you know how you ought to imitate us. For we didn't behave ourselves rebelliously among you,

For to this you were called, because Messiah also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,

neither as lording it over the charge allotted to you, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
