1 Corinthians 9:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 [a]Who [b]goeth a warfare any time at his own cost? 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?
8 [c]Say I these things [d]according to man? saith not the Law the same also?
9 For it is written in the Law of Moses, (A)Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn: doth God take care for [e]oxen?

- 1 Corinthians 9:8 Secondly he bringeth forth the authority of God’s institution by an argument of comparison.
