10. for, in fact, you do so toward all the brothers who are in all Makedonia. But we call upon you, brothers, that you do so more and more,
11. and to make it your ambition to live peaceably, and to attend to your own, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you,
12. so that you behave decently toward those who are outside, and not be in any need.
