1 Corinthians 9:7-23

7WhoG5101 goeth to warG4754 at any time atG4218 his ownG2398 expenseG3800? whoG5101 plantethG5452 a vineyardG290, andG2532 eatethG2068 notG3756 ofG1537 itsG846 fruitG2590? orG2228 whoG5101 feedethG4165 a flockG4167, andG2532 eatethG2068 notG3756 ofG1537 the milkG1051 of the flockG4167? 8Do I sayG2980 these thingsG5023 asG3361G2596 a manG444? orG2228 saithG3004 notG3780 the lawG3551 the sameG5023 alsoG2532? 9ForG1063 it is writtenG1125 inG1722 the lawG3551 of MosesG3475, Thou shaltG5392 notG3756 muzzleG5392 the mouth of the oxG1016 that treadeth out the grainG248. DothG3199 GodG2316 take careG3199 for oxenG1016? 10OrG2228 saith heG3004 this altogetherG3843 forG1223 ourG2248 sakesG1223? ForG1223 ourG2248 sakesG1223, no doubtG1063, this is writtenG1125: thatG3754 he that plowethG722 shouldG3784 plowG722 inG1909 hopeG1680; andG2532 that he that threshethG248 in hopeG1680 should be partakerG3348 ofG1909 hisG846 hopeG1680. 11IfG1487 weG2249 have sownG4687 to youG5213 spiritual thingsG4152, is it a great thingG3173 ifG1487 weG2249 shall reapG2325 yourG5216 carnal thingsG4559? 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.

19ForG1063 though I amG5607 freeG1658 fromG1537 allG3956 men, yet I have madeG1402 myselfG1683 servantG1402 to allG3956, thatG2443 I might gainG2770 the moreG4119. 20AndG2532 to the JewsG2453 I becameG1096 asG5613 a JewG2453, thatG2443 I might gainG2770 the JewsG2453; to them that are underG5259 the lawG3551, asG5613 underG5259 the lawG3551, thatG2443 I might gainG2770 them that are underG5259 the lawG3551; 21To them that are without lawG459, asG5613 without lawG459, (beingG5607 notG3361 without lawG459 to GodG2316, butG235 under the lawG1772 to ChristG5547,) thatG2443 I might gainG2770 them that are without lawG459. 22To the weakG772 IG1096 became asG5613 weakG772, thatG2443 I might gainG2770 the weakG772: I have becomeG1096 all thingsG3956 to allG3956 men, thatG2443 I mightG4982 by all meansG3843 saveG4982 someG5100. 23AndG1161 thisG5124 I doG4160 forG1223 the gospel’sG2098 sakeG1223, thatG2443 I may beG1096 a partakerG4791 of itG846 withG4791 you .
