I robbedotherchurchesby takingwages[from] [them] to serveyou;
and we toil,workingwith our ownhands;when we are reviled,we bless;when we are persecuted,we endure;
Ordo onlyBarnabasand I not havea rightto refrainfrom working?
and when I was presentwith you and was in need,I was not a burdento anyone;for when the brethrencamefrom Macedoniathey fully suppliedmy need,and in everythingI keptmyselffrom being a burdento you, and will continueto do so.
But I have receivedeverythingin fulland have an abundance;I am amply supplied,having receivedfrom Epaphrodituswhat you have sent,a fragrantaroma,an acceptablesacrifice,well-pleasingto God.
