1 Corinthians 9:17-19
Revised Geneva Translation
17 For if I do it willingly, I have a reward. But if I do it against my will, the stewardship is entrusted to me.
18 What is my reward then? Truly, that when I preach the Gospel, I make the Gospel of Christ free, that I do not abuse my authority in the Gospel.
19 For though I am free from all, yet have I made myself servant to all, that I may win the more.

New International Version
17 If I preach voluntarily, I have a reward;(A) if not voluntarily, I am simply discharging the trust committed to me.(B) 18 What then is my reward? Just this: that in preaching the gospel I may offer it free of charge,(C) and so not make full use of my rights(D) as a preacher of the gospel.
Paul’s Use of His Freedom
19 Though I am free(E) and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone,(F) to win as many as possible.(G)
