1 Corinthians 9:10-12
New International Reader's Version
10 Doesn’t he say that for us? Yes, it was written for us. Whoever plows and separates the grain hopes to share the harvest. And it is right for them to hope for this. 11 We have planted spiritual seed among you. Is it too much to ask that we receive from you some things we need? 12 Others have the right to receive help from you. Don’t we have even more right to do so?
But we didn’t use that right. No, we have put up with everything. We didn’t want to keep the good news of Christ from spreading.

1 Corinthians 9:10-12
New International Version
10 Surely he says this for us, doesn’t he? Yes, this was written for us,(A) because whoever plows and threshes should be able to do so in the hope of sharing in the harvest.(B) 11 If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you?(C) 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.(D) On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder(E) the gospel of Christ.

1 Corinthians 9:10-12
King James Version
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.
11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
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.
