A majority of the Committee preferred the reading with the genitives (supported by a B F G 33 81 104 255 256 263 442 1611 1845 1908 2005), which is in conformity with Paul’s usage in 1 Thessalonians 2:9 and 1 Thessalonians 3:10. The reading with the accusatives (supported by A D K L P most minuscules) appears to be a heightening of the apostle’s statement, by emphasizing the duration of his labors (“throughout night and day”).
