For we hear of some who walk among you in rebellion, who don’t work at all, but are busybodies.
For we hear of some that walk among you disorderly, that work not at all, but are busybodies.
Now those who are that way, we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ, that they work with quietness and eat their own bread.

If any man doesn’t obey our word in this letter, note that man and have no company with him, to the end that he may be ashamed.

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.
