3 For our exhortation was not from deceit, nor from impurity, nor in guile;
4 But as we were allowed by God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who trieth our hearts.
5 For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness:
6 Nor from men sought we glory, neither from you, nor yet from others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
7 But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:
8 So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear to us.
2:6Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor [yet] of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
2:6We were not looking for praise from men, not from you or anyone else.
2:6Nor sought we glory of men, neither of you, nor of others.
2:6nor seeking glory of men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
2:6nor seeking glory from men, neither from you nor from others, when we might have been a charge as Christ's apostles;
2:6nor seeking glory of men, neither from you, nor from others, when we might have been burdensome, as apostles of Christ.
2:6nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.
2:6nor seeking of men glory, neither from you nor from others, being able to be burdensome, as Christ's apostles.
2:6Nor of men sought we glory, neither of you, nor yet of others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ.
