1 Thessalonians 2:7
| ← 1 Thessalonians 2:6 | 1 Thessalonians 2:7 (KJV) | 1 Thessalonians 2:8 → |
|---|---|---|
Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
|
But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
|
So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
