1 Thessalonians 2:5

Paul's Ministry among the Thessalonians

Version

For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:

But as we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts.

Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
