King James Version
"For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies."
— 2 Thessalonians 3:11, King James Version
“For we hear of some that walk among you disorderly, that work not at all, but are busybodies. ”
“For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who don't work at all, but are busybodies.”
“For we hear that some among you are living an undisciplined life, not doing their own work but meddling in the work of others.”
“For we have heard there are some among you who walk disorderly: working not at all, but curiously meddling.”
“For it has come to our ears that there are some among you whose behaviour is uncontrolled, who do no work at all, but are over-interested in the business of others.”
“For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.”
Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
