For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.
For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.
Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
