3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “eat” →
Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
