1 Thessalonians 2:4-8

4ButG235 asG2531 we were allowedG1381 ofG5259 GodG3588G2316 to be put in trust withG4100 the gospelG3588G2098, even soG3779 we speakG2980; notG3756 asG5613 pleasingG700 menG444, butG235 GodG3588G2316, whichG3588 triethG1381 ourG1473 heartsG3588G2588. 5ForG1063 neitherG3777 at any timeG4218 used weG1096 flatteringG2850 wordsG3056, asG2531 ye knowG1492, norG3777 a clokeG4392 of covetousnessG4124; GodG2316 is witnessG3144:

6NorG3777 ofG1537 menG444 sought weG2212 gloryG1391, neitherG3777 ofG575 youG4771, norG3777 yet ofG575 othersG243, when we mightG1410 have beenG1510 burdensomeG1722G922, asG5613 the apostlesG652 of ChristG5547. 7ButG235 we wereG1096 gentleG2261 amongG1722 youG4771, evenG302 asG5613 a nurseG5162 cherishethG2282 herG1438 childrenG5043: 8SoG3779 being affectionately desirousG2442 of youG4771, we were willingG2106 to have impartedG3330 unto youG4771, notG3756 the gospelG3588G2098 of GodG3588G2316 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 our ownG1438 soulsG5590, becauseG1360 ye wereG1096 dearG27 unto usG1473.
