1 Corinthians 9:3-7

Jubilee Bible 2000

³ ¶ My answer to those that examine me is this,

⁴ Do we not have authority to eat and to drink?

⁵ Do we not have authority to bring with us a sister, a wife, as also the other apostles and as the brothers of the Lord and Cephas?

⁶ Do only Barnabas and I not have authority to forbear working?

⁷ Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? or who feeds a flock and does not eat of the milk of the flock?
