1 Thessalonians 2:6
Robinson-Pierpont Byzantine Textform · Berean Standard Bible
οὔτε ζητοῦντες ἐξ ἀνθρώπων δόξαν, οὔτε ἀφ’ ὑμῶν οὔτε ἀπὸ ἄλλων, δυνάμενοι ἐν βάρει εἶναι, ὡς χριστοῦ ἀπόστολοι,
Nor did we seek praise from you or from anyone else, although as apostles of Christ we had authority to demand it.
