1 Thessalonians 2:7 YLT

⁵  for at no time did we come with speech of flattery, (as ye have known,) nor in a pretext for covetousness, (God 'is' witness!)

⁶  nor seeking of men glory, neither from you nor from others, being able to be burdensome, as Christ's apostles.

⁷  But we became gentle in your midst, as a nurse may cherish her own children,

⁸  so being desirous of you, we are well-pleased to impart to you not only the good news of God, but also our own souls, because beloved ye have become to us,

⁹  for ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail, for, night and day working not to be a burden upon any of you, we did preach to you the good news of God;
