1 Thessalonians 2:6-8

Young's Literal Translation

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,
