Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you.

Brothers and sisters, we ask you to accept the godly leaders who work hard among you. They care for you in the Lord. They correct you.

We ask you, brothers, to respect those who labor among you and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,

Dear brothers and sisters, honor those who are your leaders in the Lord’s work. They work hard among you and give you spiritual guidance.

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to give recognition to those who labor among you and lead you in the Lord and admonish you,

But we ask you, brothers and sisters, to recognize those who diligently labor among you and are in leadership over you in the Lord, and give you instruction,

And we urge you, brethren, to recognize those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and admonish you,

But we beseech you, brethren, to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

Now we ask you, brothers, to give recognition to those who labor among you and lead you in the Lord and admonish you,

And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;

Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who labor among you and preside over you in the Lord and admonish you,

But we beg you, brothers, to know those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you,

Have confidence in your leaders and submit to their authority, because they keep watch over you as those who must give an account. Do this so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no benefit to you. (niv)

Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. (niv)

The elders who direct the affairs of the church well are worthy of double honor, especially those whose work is preaching and teaching.For Scripture says,“ Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain,” and“ The worker deserves his wages.” (niv)

For they refreshed my spirit and yours also. Such men deserve recognition. (niv)

to submit to such people and to everyone who joins in the work and labors at it. (niv)

and which now at his appointed season he has brought to light through the preaching entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior, (niv)

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them— yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. (niv)

Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you, for the worker deserves his wages. Do not move around from house to house. (niv)

To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me. (niv)

As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. (niv)

as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain. (niv)

For we are co- workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building. (niv)

The reason I left you in Crete was that you might put in order what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you. (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. (niv)

The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and of the seven golden lampstands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.“ To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands. (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze. (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open. (niv)

Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood. (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Pergamum write: These are the words of him who has the sharp, double-edged sword. (niv)

After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go.He told them,“ The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field. (niv)

Are they servants of Christ?( I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. (niv)

Surely you remember, brothers and sisters, our toil and hardship; we worked night and day in order not to be a burden to anyone while we preached the gospel of God to you. (niv)

The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops. (niv)

So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These are the words of him who is the First and the Last, who died and came to life again. (niv)

In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said:‘ It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” (niv)

“ To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of him who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. (niv)

And we urge you, brothers and sisters, warn those who are idle and disruptive, encourage the disheartened, help the weak, be patient with everyone. (niv)

Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them— not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve;not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. (niv)

I fear for you, that somehow I have wasted my efforts on you. (niv)

Then he said to his disciples,“ The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.” (niv)

You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary. (niv)

And God has placed in the church first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healing, of helping, of guidance, and of different kinds of tongues. (niv)

Do not rebuke an older man harshly, but exhort him as if he were your father. Treat younger men as brothers, (niv)

I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor.” (niv)

But those elders who are sinning you are to reprove before everyone, so that the others may take warning. (niv)

These, then, are the things you should teach. Encourage and rebuke with all authority. Do not let anyone despise you. (niv)

I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered when I receive news about you. (niv)
