1 Corinthians 9:11-13
New English Translation
11 If we sowed spiritual blessings among you, is it too much to reap material things from you? 12 If others receive this right from you, are we not more deserving?
But we have not made use of this right. Instead we endure everything so that we may not be a hindrance to the gospel of Christ. 13 Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple[a] eat food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar receive a part of the offerings?

1 Corinthians 9:11-13
New International Version
11 If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you?(A) 12 If others have this right of support from you, shouldn’t we have it all the more?
But we did not use this right.(B) On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder(C) the gospel of Christ.
13 Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar?(D)
