1 Corinthians 9:8-10

8I am not speaking these things 1according to 2human judgment, am I? Or does not the Law also say these things?

9For it is written in the Law of Moses, “3You shall not muzzle the ox while he is threshing.” God is not concerned about 4oxen, is He?

10Or is He speaking altogether for our sake? Yes, 5for our sake it was written, because 6the plowman ought to plow in hope, and the thresher to thresh in hope of sharing the crops.
