1 Corinthians 9:15-22

15But I have 1used none of these things. And I have not written these things so that it will be done so in my case; for it would be better for me to die than that. No one shall make 2my boast an empty one! 16For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast about, for 3I am under compulsion; for woe to me if I do not preach 4the gospel. 17For if I do this voluntarily, I have a 5reward; but if against my will, I have been entrusted with a 6commission nonetheless. 18What, then, is my 7reward? That, when I preach the gospel, I may offer the gospel 8without charge, so as 9not to make full use of my right in the gospel.

19For though I am 10free from all people, I have made myself 11a slave to all, so that I may 12gain more. 2013To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might gain Jews; to those who are under the Law, I became as one under the Law, though 14not being under the Law myself, so that I might gain those who are under the Law; 21to those who are 15without the Law, I became 16as one without the Law, though not being without the law of God but 17under the law of Christ, so that I might gain those who are without the Law. 22To the 18weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become 19all things to all people, 20so that I may by all means save some.
