New King James Version
4 (A)Do we have no [a]right to eat and drink? 5 Do we have no right to take along [b]a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, (B)the brothers of the Lord, and (C)Cephas? 6 Or is it only Barnabas and I (D)who have no right to refrain from working? 7 Who ever (E)goes to war at his own expense? Who (F)plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? Or who (G)tends a flock and does not drink of the milk of the flock?
