2 Thessalonians 3:10-12
International Standard Version
10 While we were with you, we gave this order: “If anyone doesn’t want to work, he shouldn’t eat.”
11 We hear that some of you are living in idleness.[a] You are not busy working[b]—you are busy interfering[c] in other people’s lives! 12 We order and encourage such people by the Lord Jesus, the Messiah,[d] to do their work quietly and to earn their own living.
