19 For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all men, that I may win the more.

20 (A)And unto the Jews, I become as a Jew, that I may win the Jews: to them that are under the [a]Law, as though I were under the Law, that I may win them that are under the Law:

21 To them that are without Law, as though I were without Law, (when I am not without Law as pertaining to God, but am in the Law through Christ) that I may win them that are without Law:

22 To the weak I become as weak, that I may win the weak: I am made all things to [b]all men, that I might by all means save some.

23 And this I do for the Gospel’s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with [c]you.
