1 Thessalonians 2:1-4
1For you yourselvesG846 knowG3609, brothersG80 and sisters, that our 12receptionG1529 amongG4314 you 3was not inG2756 vainG2756,
2but after we had alreadyG4310 sufferedG4310 and been 4treatedG5195 abusivelyG5195 in 5PhilippiG5375, as you knowG3609, we hadG3955 theG3955 boldnessG3955 in our GodG2316 6to speakG2980 to you the 7gospelG2098 of GodG2316 8amidG1722 muchG4183 910oppositionG73.
3For our 11exhortationG3874 does not come from 12errorG4106 orG3761 13impurityG167 orG3761 14by wayG1722 of 15deceitG1388;
416but justG2531 asG2531 we have been approvedG1381 by GodG2316 to be 17entrustedG4100 with the gospelG2098, soG3779 we speakG2980, 18not intendingG5613 to pleaseG700 peopleG444, but to please GodG2316, who 1920examinesG1381 our heartsG2588.
