8 Nor did we eat bread from anyone for free, but rather, we worked night and day, in hardship and weariness, so as not to be burdensome to you.
9 It was not as if we had no authority, but this was so that we might present ourselves as an example to you, in order to imitate us.
10 Then, too, while we were with you, we insisted on this to you: that if anyone was not willing to work, neither should he eat.
11 For we have heard that there are some among you who act disruptively, not working at all, but eagerly meddling.
12 Now we charge those who act in this way, and we beg them in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they work in silence and eat their own bread.
13 And you, brothers, do not grow weak in doing good.
14 But if anyone does not obey our word by this epistle, take note of him and do not keep company with him, so that he may be ashamed.
