葆樂訪之、因其亦以製幕為業、遂與同寓而經營焉。

and because he was a tentmaker as they were, he stayed and worked with them.

They were tentmakers, just as he was. So he stayed and worked with them.

and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.

Paul lived and worked with them, for they were tentmakers just as he was.

and since they were of the same occupation, tentmakers by trade, he stayed with them and worked.

and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them, and they worked together, for they were tent makers by trade.

So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.

and because he was of the same trade, he abode with them, and they wrought; for by their trade they were tentmakers.

and being of the same occupation, stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.

And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

and because he worked at the same trade, he stayed with them and worked with them( for they were tentmakers by trade).

and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.

弟兄們，你們記得我們的辛苦和勞碌：我們把神的福音傳給你們的時候，我們日夜做工，免得成為你們任何人的負擔。

並且親手勞苦做工。被人辱罵，我們就祝福；被人逼迫，我們就容忍；

也沒有白吃過誰的飯。相反，我們辛苦勞碌、日夜做工，免得成為你們任何人的負擔。這並不是因為我們沒有這權利，而是要親自給你們做榜樣，好讓你們效法我們。

我在你們那裡有缺乏的時候，也沒有成為任何人的負擔，因為從馬其頓省來的弟兄們補足了我的缺乏。在一切事上我都留意，不讓自己成為你們的負擔，將來也會留意。

你們自己也知道，我這雙手供應了我和與我在一起之人的需要。在一切事上，我都給你們做了榜樣：必須這樣地勞苦做工來扶助軟弱的人，並且要記住主耶穌自己說過的話：『施比受更加蒙福。』」

除了我自己沒有成為你們的負擔以外，你們所受的對待，到底有什麼不如其他教會呢？請你們饒恕我這點不公平吧！

我降卑自己，好使你們被高舉，因為我把神的福音無償地傳給你們，難道我這樣就犯了罪嗎？

難道只有我和巴拿巴沒有不做工的權利嗎？曾經有誰當兵自備糧餉呢？有誰栽種葡萄園不吃園中的果子呢？有誰牧養羊群不喝羊群的奶呢？我說這些話，難道是按人的意思嗎？律法不也是說這些話嗎？事實上，摩西的律法上記著：「牛踹穀的時候，不可籠住牠的嘴。」難道神顧念的是牛嗎？還是特別為我們說的呢？這樣寫下來，當然是為我們的緣故！因為耕田的應該懷著希望去耕田，打場的應該懷著一同分享糧食的希望去打場。既然我們為你們播下了屬靈的種子，那麼，如果我們從你們收取物質上的東西，這算過份嗎？如果別人能從你們那裡分享這權利，我們不是更能分享嗎？然而，我們並沒有用過這權利，反而凡事包容，免得給基督的福音帶來阻礙。
