* Now we enjoin you , brethren , in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ , that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us . * For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us , because we have not walked disorderly among you ; * nor have we eaten bread from any one without cost ; but in toil and hardship working night and day not to be chargeable to any one of you : * not that we have not the right , but that we might give ourselves as an example to you , in order to your imitating us . * For also when we were with you we enjoined you this , that if any man does not like to work , neither let him eat . * For we hear that [there are ] some walking among you disorderly , not working at all , but busybodies . * Now such we enjoin and exhort in [the ] Lord Jesus Christ , that working quietly they eat their own bread . * But ye , brethren , do not faint in well-doing . * But if any one obey not our word by the letter , mark that man , and do not keep company with him , that he may be ashamed of himself ; * and do not esteem him as an enemy , but admonish [him ] as a brother .
