1 Corinthians 9:7-13

7Who ever carries on war at his own charges? who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? or who herds a flock and does not eat of the milk of the flock?

8Do I speak these things as a man, or does not the law also say these things?

9For in the law of Moses it is written, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that is treading out corn. Is 1God occupied about the oxen,

10or does he say [it] altogether for our sakes? For for our sakes it has been written, that the plougher should plough in hope, and he that treads out corn, in hope of partaking of [it].

11If we have sown to you spiritual things, [is it a] great [thing] if we shall reap your carnal things?

12If others partake of this right over you, should not rather we? But we have not used this right, but we bear all things, that we may put no hindrance in the way of the glad tidings of the Christ.

13Do ye not know that they who labour [at] sacred things eat of the [offerings offered in the] temple; they that attend at the altar partake with the altar?
