1 Corinthians 9:7-13 Who at any time serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat the fruit of it? Or who shepherds a flock and does not drink from the milk of the flock?

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Who at any time serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat the fruit of it? Or who shepherds a flock and does not drink from the milk of the flock? ⁸ Do I speak these things according to man? Or does the Law not also say these things? ⁹ For in the Law of Moses it has been written: “You shall not muzzle an ox treading out grain.” Is there care for the oxen with God? ¹⁰ Or is He speaking because of us entirely? For it was written for us, because in hope the one plowing ought to plow, and the one threshing, in hope to partake. ¹¹ If we have sown spiritual things among you, is it a great thing if we will reap material things from you? ¹² If others partake of the authority over you, should we not more? But we did not use this right. Instead, we bear all things, so that we should not place any hindrance to the gospel of Christ. ¹³ Do you not know that those working in the temple eat the things of the temple; those attending at the altar partake in the altar?
