ગુજરાતીથેસ્સાલોનિકીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૨:૭
પણ જેમ દૂધ પાનાર મા પોતાનાં બાળકોનું જતન કરે છે, તેમ અમે તમારી સાથે કોમળતાથી વર્ત્યા હતા.
हिन्दी1 थिस्सलुनीकियों २:७
परन्तु जिस तरह माता अपने बालकों का पालन-पोषण करती है, वैसे ही हमने भी तुम्हारे बीच में रहकर कोमलता दिखाई है।

In context

5For neither were we at any time found using words of flattery, as you know, nor a cloak of covetousness (God is witness),

6nor seeking glory from men (neither from you nor from others), when we might have claimed authority as apostles of Christ.

7But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother cherishes her own children.

8Even so, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not the Good News of God only, but also our own souls, because you had become very dear to us.

9For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail; for working night and day, that we might not burden any of you, we preached to you the Good News of God.
