For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

They that {were} foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

{It is} vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: {for} so he giveth his beloved sleep.

{Thus} I was; in the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night; and my sleep departed from mine eyes.
