1 Corinthians 9:6-8
New International Version
6 Or is it only I and Barnabas(A) who lack the right to not work for a living?
7 Who serves as a soldier(B) at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard(C) and does not eat its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink the milk? 8 Do I say this merely on human authority? Doesn’t the Law say the same thing?
