1AmG1510 I not 1freeG1658? AmG1510 I not an 2apostleG652? Have I not 3seenG3708 JesusG2424 our LordG2962? Are you not 4my workG2041 in the LordG2962? 2IfG1487 I amG1510 not an apostleG652 to othersG243, atG235G1065 leastG235G1065 I amG1510 to you; for you are the 5sealG4973 of my 6apostleshipG651 in the LordG2962.

3My defenseG627 to thoseG3588 who examineG350 me is thisG3778: 478Do we not haveG2192 a rightG1849 to eatG2068 and drinkG4095? 5910Do we not haveG2192 a rightG1849 to takeG4013 alongG4013 a 11believingG79 wifeG1135, evenG2532 as the restG3062 of the apostlesG652 and the 12brothersG80 of the LordG2962, and 1314CephasG2786? 6OrG2228 do onlyG3441 1516BarnabasG921 and I haveG2192 noG3756 rightG1849 to refrainG3361 from 17workingG2038? 7WhoG5101 at anyG4218 timeG4218 servesG4754 18asG4754 aG4754 soldierG4754 at his ownG2398 expenseG3800? WhoG5101 19plantsG5452 a vineyardG290 and does not eatG2068 its fruitG2590? OrG2228 whoG5101 tendsG4165 a flockG4167 and does not 20consumeG2068 someG1537 of the milkG1051 of the flockG4167?
