1 Corinthians 9:12-18

12IfG1487 othersG243 are partakersG3348 of this rightG1849 over youG5216, are notG3756 weG2249 ratherG3123? NeverthelessG235 we haveG5530 notG3756 usedG5530 thisG5026 rightG1849; butG235 endureG4722 all thingsG3956, lestG3363 we shouldG1325G5100 hinderG1464 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547. 13Do yeG1492 notG3756 knowG1492 thatG3754 they who ministerG2038 about holy thingsG2413 liveG2068 from the things ofG1537 the templeG2411? and they who waitG4332 at the altarG2379 are partakersG4829 with the altarG2379?1 14EvenG2532 soG3779 hathG1299 the LordG2962 ordainedG1299 that they who preachG2605 the gospelG2098 should liveG2198 byG1537 the gospelG2098.

15ButG1161 IG1473 have usedG5530 noneG3762 of these thingsG5130: neitherG3756 have I writtenG1125 these thingsG5023, thatG2443 it should beG1096 soG3779 doneG1096 toG1722 meG1698: forG1063 it were betterG3123 for meG3427 to dieG599G2570, thanG2228 thatG2443 any manG5100 should makeG2758 myG3450 gloryingG2745 voidG2758. 16ForG1063 thoughG1437 I preach the gospelG2097, IG3427 haveG2076 nothingG3756 to boast ofG2745: forG1063 necessityG318 is laid uponG1945 meG3427; andG1161, woeG3759 isG2076 to meG3427, ifG3362 I preachG2097 notG3362 the gospelG2097! 17ForG1063 ifG1487 I doG4238 this thingG5124 willinglyG1635, I haveG2192 a rewardG3408: butG1161 ifG1487 against my willG210, a dispensationG3622 of the gospel is committed to meG4100. 18WhatG5101 isG2076 myG3427 rewardG3408 thenG3767? Verily thatG2443, when I preach the gospelG2097, I may makeG5087 the gospelG2098 of ChristG5547 without chargeG77, thatG1519 I may notG3361 abuseG2710 myG3450 rightG1849 inG1722 the gospelG2098.
