ગુજરાતીથેસ્સાલોનિકીઓને પહેલો પત્ર ૨:૮
કેમ કે તમારી ઉપર સ્નેહ હોવાથી અમે તમને કેવળ ઈશ્વરની સુવાર્તા જ નહિ, પણ પોતાનો જીવ આપવાને પણ રાજી હતા, કેમ કે તમે અમને ઘણાં જ પ્રિય થઈ પડ્યા હતા.
हिन्दी1 थिस्सलुनीकियों २:८
और वैसे ही हम तुम्हारी लालसा करते हुए, न केवल परमेश्वर का सुसमाचार, पर अपना-अपना प्राण भी तुम्हें देने को तैयार थे, इसलिए कि तुम हमारे प्यारे हो गए थे।

In context

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.

10You are witnesses with God how holy, righteously, and blamelessly we behaved ourselves toward you who believe.
