For we hear that some among you walk in idleness, not busy at work, not busy bodies. Now such persons we command and encouraged in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to earn their own living. 1st Thessalonians 4: 11-12. And to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own Affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you, so that you may want to properly before Outsiders and be dependent on no one.
