1 Thessalonians 2:5-7

5 Neither yet did we ever use flattering words, as ye know, nor colored covetousness, God is record.
6 [a]Neither sought we praise of men, neither of you, nor of others, when we might have been [b]chargeable, as the Apostles of Christ.
7 But we were [c]gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children.
