1 Corinthians 9:7-13

7What soldierG4754 everG4218 serveth at his ownG2398 charges? who planteth a vineyardG290, and eateth not the fruitG2590 thereof? or who feedeth a flockG4167, and eateth not of the milkG1051 of the flockG4167?

8Do I speakG2980 these thingsG3778 after the manner of menG444? or saith not the lawG3551 alsoG2532 the same?

9For it is writtenG1125 in the lawG3551 of MosesG3475, Thou shalt not muzzleG5392 the oxG1016 when he treadeth out the corn. Is it for the oxenG1016 that GodG2316 careth,

10or saith he it assuredly for our sakeG1223? Yea, for our sakeG1223 it was writtenG1125: because he that ploweth oughtG3784 to plowG722 in hopeG1680, and he that thresheth, to thresh in hopeG1680 of partaking.

11If we sowedG4687 unto you spiritualG4152 thingsG3173, is it a greatG3173 matter if we shall reapG2325 your carnal thingsG3173?

12If othersG243 partakeG3348 of this rightG1849 over you, do not we yetG235 moreG3123? Nevertheless we did not useG5530 this rightG1849; but we bear all thingsG3778, that we may cause no hindrance to the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547.

13Know ye not that they that minister about sacredG2413 things eatG2068 of the things of the temple, and they that wait upon the altarG2379 have their portion with the altarG2379?
