1 Corinthians 9:4-7

4Don’t we have the right to food and drink?

5Don’t we have the right to take a believing wife along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers and Cephas?

6Or is it only I and Barnabas who lack the right to not work for a living?

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