1 Corinthians 9:12-14

New International Reader's Version

¹² Others have the right to receive help from you. Don’t we have even more right to do so?

But we didn’t use that right. No, we have put up with everything. We didn’t want to keep the good news of Christ from spreading.

¹³ People who serve in the temple get their food from the temple. Don’t you know this? People who serve at the altar eat from what is offered on the altar. Don’t you know this? ¹⁴ So those who preach the good news should also receive their living from their work. That is what the Lord has commanded.
