1 Corinthians 9:5-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
5 Don’t we have the right to be accompanied by a Christian wife[a] like the other apostles,(A) the Lord’s brothers, and Cephas?(B) 6 Or do Barnabas(C) and I alone have no right to refrain from working? 7 Who ever goes to war at his own expense?(D) Who plants a vineyard and does not eat its fruit? Or who shepherds a flock and does not drink the milk from the flock?

New International Version
5 Don’t we have the right to take a believing wife(A) along with us, as do the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers(B) and Cephas[a]?(C) 6 Or is it only I and Barnabas(D) who lack the right to not work for a living?
7 Who serves as a soldier(E) at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard(F) and does not eat its grapes? Who tends a flock and does not drink the milk?
