And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

And labour, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we suffer it:

For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

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.
