11as ye know how we dealt with each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging you , and testifying,
11as ye know how we dealt with each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging you , and testifying,
8 even so, being affectionately desirous of you, we were well pleased to impart unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were become very dear to us.
9 For ye remember, brethren, our labor and travail: working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.
10 Ye are witnesses, and God also , how holily and righteously and unblameably we behaved ourselves toward you that believe:
11 as ye know how we dealt with each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging you , and testifying,
12 to the end that ye should walk worthily of God, who calleth you into his own kingdom and glory.
13 And for this cause we also thank God without ceasing, that, when ye received from us the word of the message, even the word of God, ye accepted it not as the word of men, but, as it is in truth, the word of God, which also worketh in you that believe.

2:11As you know in what manner, entreating and comforting you, (as a father doth his children,)

2:11as ye know how we dealt with each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging you, and testifying,
2:11As ye know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,
2:11As you know, we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,
2:11even as ye have known, how each one of you, as a father his own children, we are exhorting you, and comforting, and testifying,
2:11As you know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father does his children,
