1 Corinthians 9:6–14

⁶Or I only and ^lBarnabas, have not we power ^gto forbear working? ⁷Who goeth ^ma warfare any time at his own ⁿcharges? who ^oplanteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who ^pfeedeth a ^qflock, and eateth not of the milk of the ^qflock? ⁸Say I these things ^ras a man? or saith not the law the same also? ⁹For it is written in the law of Moses, ^sThou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that ^ttreadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? ¹⁰Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? ^uFor our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that ^whe that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that ^tthresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. ^11xIf we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? ¹²If others be partakers of this power ^yover you, are not we rather? Nevertheless ^zwe have not used this power; but ^asuffer all things, ^blest we should hinder the gospel of Christ. ¹³Do ye not know that ^cthey which minister about holy things ^||live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar? ¹⁴Even so ^dhath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel ^gshould live of the gospel.
