6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from every brother who leads an unruly life and not according to the tradition which you received from us.

2 Thessalonians 3:10

10 For even when we were with you, we used to give you this order: if anyone is not willing to work, then he is not to eat, either.
