7 Who goeth a warfare at any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of its fruit? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?WBS — 1Corinthians 9:7

8 Do I say these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?WBS — 1Corinthians 9:8

9 For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?WBS — 1Corinthians 9:9

10 Or saith he this altogether for our sakes? for our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:10

11 If we have sown to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?WBS — 1Corinthians 9:11

12 If others are partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:12

13 Do ye not know that they who minister about holy things live from the things of the temple, and they who wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?WBS — 1Corinthians 9:13

14 Even so hath the Lord ordained that they who preach the gospel should live by the gospel.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:14

15 But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done to me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:15

16 For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of: for necessity is laid upon me; and woe is to me, if I preach not the gospel!WBS — 1Corinthians 9:16

17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed to me.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:17

18 What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I may not abuse my power in the gospel.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:18

19 For though I am free from all men, yet I have made myself servant to all, that I might gain the more.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:19

20 And to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;WBS — 1Corinthians 9:20

21 To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:21

22 To the weak I became as weak, that I might gain the weak: I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:22

23 And this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:23

24 Know ye not, that they who run in a race, all run, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:24

25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:25

26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so I fight, not as one that beateth the air:WBS — 1Corinthians 9:26

27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest by any means when I have preached to others, I myself should be a cast-away.WBS — 1Corinthians 9:27
