Think
over, my beloved brothers, think over his words: Pray the Lord of the
harvest to send laborers into his harvest. Pray for us so that we may
be able to labor worthily on your behalf, that our tongue may not
grow weary of exhortation, that after we have taken up the office of
preaching our silence may not bring us condemnation from the just
judge.
