1 Am 1510 I not 3756 an apostle 652? am 1510 I not 3756 free 1658? have I not 3780 seen 3708 Jesus 2424 Christ 5547 our 2257 Lord 2962? are 2075 not 3756 ye 5210 my 3450 work 2041 in 1722 the Lord 2962?
2 If 1487 I be 1510 not 3756 an apostle 652 unto others 243, yet 235 doubtless 1065 I am 1510 to you 5213: for 1063 the seal 4973 of mine 1699 apostleship 651 are 2075 ye 5210 in 1722 the Lord 2962.
3 Mine 1699 answer 627 to them that do examine 350 me 1691 is 2076 this 3778,
4 Have we 2192 not 3378 power 1849 to eat 5315 and 2532 to drink 4095?
5 Have we 2192 not 3378 power 1849 to lead about 4013 a sister 79, a wife 1135, as well as 5613 2532 other 3062 apostles 652, and 2532 as the brethren 80 of the Lord 2962, and 2532 Cephas 2786?
6 Or 2228 I 1473 only 3441 and 2532 Barnabas 921, have 2192 0 not 3756 we 2192 power 1849 to forbear 3361 working 2038?
7 Who 5101 goeth a warfare 4754 any time at 4218 his own 2398 charges 3800? who 5101 planteth 5452 a vineyard 290, and 2532 eateth 2068 not 3756 of 1537 the fruit 2590 thereof 846? or 2228 who 5101 feedeth 4165 a flock 4167, and 2532 eateth 2068 not 3756 of 1537 the milk 1051 of the flock 4167?
8 Say I 2980 these things 5023 as 3361 2596 a man 444? or 2228 saith 3004 not 3780 the law 3551 the same 5023 also 2532?
9 For 1063 it is written 1125 in 1722 the law 3551 of Moses 3475, Thou shalt 5392 0 not 3756 muzzle 5392 the mouth of the ox 1016 that treadeth out the corn 248. 3361 Doth 3199 0 God 2316 take care 3199 for oxen 1016?
10 Or 2228 saith he 3004 it altogether 3843 for 1223 0 our 2248 sakes 1223? For 1223 0 our 2248 sakes 1223, no doubt 1063, this is written 1125: that 3754 he that ploweth 722 should 3784 plow 722 in 1909 hope 1680; and 2532 that he that thresheth 248 in hope 1680 should be partaker 3348 of 1909 his 848 hope 1680.
11 If 1487 we 2249 have sown 4687 unto you 5213 spiritual things 4152, is it a great thing 3173 if 1487 we 2249 shall reap 2325 your 5216 carnal things 4559?
12 If 1487 others 243 be partakers 3348 of this power 1849 over you 5216, are not 3756 we 2249 rather 3123? Nevertheless 235 we have 5530 0 not 3756 used 5530 this 5026 power 1849; but 235 suffer 4722 all things 3956, lest 3363 we should 1325 5100 hinder 1464 the gospel 2098 of Christ 5547.
13 Do ye 1492 0 not 3756 know 1492 that 3754 they which minister 2038 about holy things 2413 live 2068 of the things of 1537 the temple 2411? and they which wait 4332 at the altar 2379 are partakers 4829 with the altar 2379?
14 Even 2532 so 3779 hath 1299 0 the Lord 2962 ordained 1299 that they which preach 2605 the gospel 2098 should live 2198 of 1537 the gospel 2098.
15 But 1161 I 1473 have used 5530 none 3762 of these things 5130: 1161 neither 3756 have I written 1125 these things 5023, that 2443 it should be 1096 0 so 3779 done 1096 unto 1722 me 1698: for 1063 it were better 3123 for me 3427 to die 599 2570, than 2228 that 2443 any man 5100 should make 2758 0 my 3450 glorying 2745 void 2758.
16 For 1063 though 1437 I preach the gospel 2097, I 3427 have 2076 nothing 3756 to glory of 2745: for 1063 necessity 318 is laid upon 1945 me 3427; yea 1161, woe 3759 is 2076 unto me 3427, if 3362 0 I preach 2097 0 not 3362 the gospel 2097!
17 For 1063 if 1487 I do 4238 this thing 5124 willingly 1635, I have 2192 a reward 3408: but 1161 if 1487 against my will 210, a dispensation 3622 of the gospel is committed unto me 4100.
18 What 5101 is 2076 my 3427 reward 3408 then 3767? Verily that 2443, when I preach the gospel 2097, I may make 5087 the gospel 2098 of Christ 5547 without charge 77, that 1519 I abuse 2710 not 3361 my 3450 power 1849 in 1722 the gospel 2098.
19 For 1063 though I be 5607 free 1658 from 1537 all 3956 men, yet have I made 1402 0 myself 1683 servant 1402 unto all 3956, that 2443 I might gain 2770 the more 4119.
20 And 2532 unto the Jews 2453 I became 1096 as 5613 a Jew 2453, that 2443 I might gain 2770 the Jews 2453; to them that are under 5259 the law 3551, as 5613 under 5259 the law 3551, that 2443 I might gain 2770 them that are under 5259 the law 3551;
21 To them that are without law 459, as 5613 without law 459, (being 5607 not 3361 without law 459 to God 2316, but 235 under the law 1772 to Christ 5547,) that 2443 I might gain 2770 them that are without law 459.
22 To the weak 772 became I 1096 as 5613 weak 772, that 2443 I might gain 2770 the weak 772: I am made 1096 all things 3956 to all 3956 men, that 2443 I might 4982 0 by all means 3843 save 4982 some 5100.
23 And 1161 this 5124 I do 4160 for 1223 0 the gospel's 2098 sake 1223, that 2443 I might be 1096 partaker 4791 0 thereof 846 with 4791 you.
24 Know ye 1492 not 3756 that 3754 they which run 5143 in 1722 a race 4712 run 5143 all 3956 3303, but 1161 one 1520 receiveth 2983 the prize 1017? So 3779 run 5143, that 2443 ye may obtain 2638.
25 And 1161 every man 3956 that striveth for the mastery 75 is temperate 1467 in all things 3956. 3303 Now 3767 they 1565 do it to 2443 obtain 2983 a corruptible 5349 crown 4735; but 1161 we 2249 an incorruptible 862.
26 I 1473 therefore 5106 so 3779 run 5143, not 3756 as 5613 uncertainly 84; so 3779 fight I 4438, not 3756 as 5613 one that beateth 1194 the air 109:
27 But 235 I keep under 5299 my 3450 body 4983, and 2532 bring it into subjection 1396: lest that by any means 3381 4458, when I have preached 2784 to others 243, I myself 846 should be 1096 a castaway 96.
