1COR 9:1
1 Corinthians 9:1
|
|
Am I am not an apostle? am I not free? have
I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord? |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:2
1 Corinthians 9:2
|
|
If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless
I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord. |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:3
1 Corinthians 9:3
|
|
Mine answer to them that do examine me is this, |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:4
1 Corinthians 9:4
|
|
Have we not power to eat and to drink? |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:5
1 Corinthians 9:5
|
|
Have we not power to lead about a sister, a
wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas? |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:6
1 Corinthians 9:6
|
|
Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to
forbear working? |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:7
1 Corinthians 9:7
|
|
Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges?
who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a
flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:8
1 Corinthians 9:8
|
|
Say I these things as a man? or saith not the
law the same also? |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:9
1 Corinthians 9:9
|
|
For it is written in the law of Moses, thou
shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take
care for oxen? |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:10
1 Corinthians 9:10
|
|
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. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:11
1 Corinthians 9:11
|
|
If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is
it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things? |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:12
1 Corinthians 9:12
|
|
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. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:13
1 Corinthians 9:13
|
|
Do ye not know that they which minister about
holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar
are partakers with the altar? |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:14
1 Corinthians 9:14
|
|
Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which
preach the gospel should live of the gospel. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:15
1 Corinthians 9:15
|
|
But I have used none of these things: neither
have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better
for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:16
1 Corinthians 9:16
|
|
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing
to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not
the gospel! |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:17
1 Corinthians 9:17
|
|
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward:
but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:18
1 Corinthians 9:18
|
|
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I
preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse
not my power in the gospel. |
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:19
1 Corinthians 9:19
|
|
For though I be free from all men, yet have
I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:20
1 Corinthians 9:20
|
|
And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I
might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I
might gain them that are under the law; |
| |
|
|
|
1COR 9:21
1 Corinthians 9:21
|
|
To them that are without law, as without law,
(being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain
them that are without law. |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:22
1 Corinthians 9:22
|
|
To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain
the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some. |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:23
1 Corinthians 9:23
|
|
And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I
might be partaker thereof with you. |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:24
1 Corinthians 9:24
|
|
Know ye not that they which run in a race run
all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:25
1 Corinthians 9:25
|
|
And every man that striveth for the mastery
is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but
we an incorruptible. |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:26
1 Corinthians 9:26
|
|
I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight
I, not as one that beateth the air: |
|
|
|
|
|
1COR 9:27
1 Corinthians 9:27
|
|
But I keep under my body, and bring it into
subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should
be a castaway. |
