I not°
an apostle?°

I not°
free?°
have I not°
seen°°
Jesus°
Christ°
our°
Lord?°
are°°
not°
ye°
my°
work°
in°
the Lord?° |

9:2
If to others I am not an apostle, yet at least I am to you; for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord. |
|
9:2
If°
I be°°
not°
an apostle°
unto others,°
yet°
doubtless°
I am°°
to you:°°
for°
the°
seal°
of mine°
apostleship°
are°°
ye°
in°
the Lord.° |
|
9:3
My defence to them that examine me is this. |
|
9:3
Mine°
answer°
to them that do examine°°
me°
is°°

Have we no right to eat and to drink? |
|
9:4
Have°
we°°
not°
power°
to eat°°
and°
to drink?°° |
|
9:5
Have we no right to lead about a wife that is a believer, even as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas? |
|
9:5
Have°
we°°
not°
power°
to lead about°°
a sister,°
a wife,°
as well as°°
other°
apostles,°
and°
[as] the°
brethren°
of the°
Lord,°
and°
Cephas?° |
|
9:6
Or I only and Barnabas, have we not a right to forbear working? |
|

Or°
I°
only°
and°
Barnabas,°
have°°
not°
we°°
power°
to forbear°
working?°°° |

9:7
What soldier ever serveth at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not the fruit thereof? Or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? |
|
9:7
Who°
goeth a warfare°°
any time°
at°
his own°
charges?°
who°
planteth°°
a vineyard,°
and°
eateth°°
not°
of°
the°
fruit°
thereof?°°
or°
who°
feedeth°°
a flock,°
and°
eateth°°
not°
of°
the°
milk°
of the°
flock?° |
|
9:8
Do I speak these things after the manner of men? or saith not the law also the same? |
|
9:8
Say°
I°°
these things°°
as°°
a man?°
or°
saith°°
not°
the°
law°
the°
same°
also?° |
|
9:9
For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn. Is it for the oxen that God careth, |

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?° |
|
9:10
or saith he it assuredly for our sake? Yea, for our sake it was written: because he that ploweth ought to plow in hope, and he that thresheth, [to thresh] in hope of partaking. |
|
9:10
Or°
saith°
he°°
[it] 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.° |

9:11
If we sowed unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we shall reap your carnal things? |
|
9:11
If°
we°
have sown°°
unto you°
spiritual things,°
[is it] a great thing°
if°
we°
shall reap°°
your°
carnal things?° |
|
9:12
If others partake of [this] right over you, do not we yet more? Nevertheless we did not use this right; but we bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the gospel of Christ. |
|
9:12
If°
others°
be 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.° |
|

Know ye not that they that minister about sacred things eat [of] the things of the temple, [and] they that wait upon the altar have their portion with the altar? |
|
9:13
Do ye°°
not°
know°°
that°
they which minister°°
about holy things°
live°°
[of the things] of°
the°
temple?°
and they which wait°°
at the°
altar°
are partakers°°
with°
the°
altar?° |
|
9:14
Even so did the Lord ordain that they that proclaim the gospel should live of the gospel. |
|
9:14
Even°
so°
hath°°
the°
Lord°
ordained°°
that they which preach°°
the°
gospel°
should live°°
of°
the°
gospel.° |
|
9:15
But I have used none of these things: and I write not these things that it may be so done in my case; for [it were] good for me rather to die, than that any man should make my glorifying void. |
|
9:15
But°
I°
have used°°
none°
of these things:°°
neither°°
have I written°°
these things,°
that°
it should be°°
so°
done°°
unto°
me:°
for°
[it were] better°°
for me°
to°
die,°°°
than°
that°
any man°
should make°°
my°
glorying°
void.°°°° |
|
9:16
For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of; for necessity is laid upon me; for woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel. |
|
9:16
For°
though°
I preach the gospel,°°
I°
have°°
nothing°
to glory of:°
for°
necessity°
is laid upon°°
me;°
yea,°
woe°
is°°
unto me,°
if°°°
I preach°°
not°
the gospel!°°° |
|
9:17
For if I do this of mine own will, I have a reward: but if not of mine own will, I have a stewardship intrusted to me. |
|
9:17
For°
if°
I do°°
this thing°
willingly,°
I have°°
a reward:°
but°
if°
against my will,°
a dispensation°
[of the gospel] is committed°
unto me.°° |
|
9:18
What then is my reward? That, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel without charge, so as not to use to the full my right in the gospel. |
|
9:18
What°
is°°
my°
reward°
then?°
[Verily] that,°
when I preach the gospel,°°
I may make°°
the°
gospel°
of Christ°
without charge,°
that°
I abuse°°
not°
my°
power°
in°
the°
gospel.° |
|
9:19
For though I was free from all [men], I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more. |
|
9:19
For°
though I be°°
free°
from°
all°
[men], yet have I made°°
myself°
servant°°°
unto all,°
that°
I might gain°°
the°
more.° |
|
9:20
And to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, not being myself under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; |
|
9:20
And°
unto 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;° |
|
9:21
to them that are without law, as without law, not being without law to God, but under law to Christ, that I might gain them that are without law. |
|
9:21
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.° |
|
9:22
To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak: I am become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some. |
|
9:22
To the°
weak°
became°
I°°
as°
weak,°
that°
I might gain°°
the°
weak:°
I am made°°
all things°
to all°
[men], that°
I might°°
by all means°
save°°
some.° |
|
9:23
And I do all things for the gospel's sake, that I may be a joint partaker thereof. |
|
9:23
And°
this°
I do°°
for°°
the gospel's°
sake,°°°
that°
I might be°°
partaker°°
thereof°
with°°
[you]. |
|
9:24
Know ye not that they that run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? Even so run; that ye may attain. |
|
9:24
Know°
ye°°
not°
that°
they which run°°
in°
a race°
run°°
all,°°
but°
one°
receiveth°°
the°
prize?°
So°
run,°°
that°
ye may obtain.°° |
|
9:25
And every man that striveth in the games exerciseth self-control in all things. Now they [do it] to receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. |
|
9:25
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.° |
|
9:26
I therefore so run, as not uncertainly; so fight I, as not beating the air: |
|
9:26
I°
therefore°
so°
run,°°
not°
as°
uncertainly;°
so°
fight°
I,°°
not°
as°
one that beateth°°
the air:° |
|
9:27
but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. |
|
9:27
But°
I keep under°°
my°
body,°
and°
bring [it] into subjection:°°
lest that by any means,°°
when I have preached°°
to others,°
I myself°°
should be°°
a castaway.° |
