Reading 1, Second Thessalonians 3:6-10, 16-18

⁷ You know how you should take us as your model: we were not undisciplined when we were with you,

⁹ This was not because we had no right to be, but in order to make ourselves a model for you to imitate.

¹⁰ We urged you when we were with you not to let anyone eat who refused to work.
