⁷ For yourselves know how ye ought to imitate us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

⁸ neither did we eat bread for nought at any man's hand, but in labor and travail, working night and day, that we might not burden any of you:

⁹ not because we have not the right, but to make ourselves and ensample unto you, that ye should imitate us.

³ And one said, Be pleased, I pray thee, to go with thy servants. And he answered, I will go.

⁴ So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down wood.

⁵ But as one was felling a beam, the axe-head fell into the water; and he cried, and said, Alas, my master! for it was borrowed.

⁶ And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he showed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither, and made the iron to swim.

⁷ And he said, Take it up to thee. So he put out his hand, and took it.
