1 Thessalonians 2:11

As ye know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children,

As you know how we exhorted, comforted, and implored every one of you, as a father does his own children,

as ye know how we `dealt with' each one of you, as a father with his own children, exhorting you, and encouraging `you', and testifying,

For you know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children—
