2 Thessalonians 3:10-15

10For even while we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.

11Indeed, we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined and inappropriate life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies [meddling in other people’s business].

12Now such people we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and work quietly and earn their own food and other necessities [supporting themselves instead of depending on the hospitality of others].

13And as for [the rest of] you, believers, do not grow tired or lose heart in doing good [but continue doing what is right without weakening].

14Now if anyone [in the church] does not obey what we say in this letter, take special note of that person and do not associate with him, so that he will be ashamed and repent.

15Do not regard him as an enemy, but keep admonishing him as a [believing] brother.
