Berean Standard Bible

1 Corinthians 9:4-7

4Have we no right to food and to drink? 5Have we no right to take along a believing wife,1 as do the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers and Cephas?2 6Or are Barnabas and I the only apostles who must work for a living?3

7Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Who tends a flock and does not drink of its milk?
