1 Corinthians 9

1
Am I not free? am I not an apostle? have I not seen Jesus our Lord? are not *ye* my work in [the] Lord?
2
If I am not an apostle to others, yet at any rate I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are *ye* in [the] Lord.
3
My defence to those who examine me is this:
4
Have we not a right to eat and to drink?
5
have we not a right to take round a sister [as] wife, as also the other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
6
Or *I* alone and Barnabas, have we not a right not to work?
7
Who ever carries on war at his own charges? who plants a vineyard and does not eat of its fruit? or who herds a flock and does not eat of the milk of the flock?
8
Do I speak these things as a man, or does not the law also say these things?
9
For in the law of Moses it is written, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that is treading out corn. Is God occupied about the oxen,
10
or does he say [it] altogether for our sakes? For for our sakes it has been written, that the plougher should plough in hope, and he that treads out corn, in hope of partaking of [it].
11
If we have sown to you spiritual things, [is it a] great [thing] if *we* shall reap your carnal things?
12
If others partake of this right over you, should not rather *we*? But we have not used this right, but we bear all things, that we may put no hindrance in the way of the glad tidings of the Christ.
13
Do ye not know that they who labour [at] sacred things eat of the [offerings offered in the] temple; they that attend at the altar partake with the altar?
14
So also the Lord has ordained to those that announce the glad tidings to live of the glad tidings.
15
But *I* have used none of these things. Now I have not written these things that it should be thus in my case; for [it were] good for me rather to die than that any one should make vain my boast.
16
For if I announce the glad tidings, I have nothing to boast of; for a necessity is laid upon me; for it is woe to me if I should not announce the glad tidings.
17
For if I do this voluntarily, I have a reward; but if not of my own will, I am entrusted with an administration.
18
What is the reward then that I have? That in announcing the glad tidings I make the glad tidings costless [to others], so as not to have made use, as belonging to me, of my right in [announcing] the glad tidings.
19
For being free from all, I have made myself bondman to all, that I might gain the most [possible].
20
And I became to the Jews as a Jew, in order that I might gain the Jews: to those under law, as under law, not being myself under law, in order that I might gain those under law:
21
to those without law, as without law, (not as without law to God, but as legitimately subject to Christ,) in order that I might gain [those] without law.
22
I became to the weak, [as] weak, in order that I might gain the weak. To all I have become all things, in order that at all events I might save some.
23
And I do all things for the sake of the glad tidings, that I may be fellow-partaker with them.
24
Know ye not that they who run in [the] race-course run all, but one receives the prize? Thus run in order that ye may obtain.
25
But every one that contends [for a prize] is temperate in all things: *they* then indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown, but *we* an incorruptible.
26
*I* therefore thus run, as not uncertainly; so I combat, as not beating the air.
27
But I buffet my body, and lead it captive, lest [after] having preached to others I should be myself rejected.


1 Corinthians 10

1
For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2
and all were baptised unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3
and all ate the same spiritual food,
4
and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they drank of a spiritual rock which followed [them]: (now the rock was the Christ;)
5
yet God was not pleased with the most of them, for they were strewed in the desert.
6
But these things happened [as] types of us, that we should not be lusters after evil things, as they also lusted.
7
Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.
8
Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed fornication, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand.
9
Neither let us tempt the Christ, as some of them tempted, and perished by serpents.
10
Neither murmur ye, as some of them murmured, and perished by the destroyer.
11
Now all these things happened to them [as] types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come.
12
So that let him that thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.
13
No temptation has taken you but such as is according to man's nature; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able [to bear], but will with the temptation make the issue also, so that [ye] should be able to bear [it].
14
Wherefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15
I speak as to intelligent [persons]: do *ye* judge what I say.
16
The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not [the] communion of the blood of the Christ? The bread which we break, is it not [the] communion of the body of the Christ?
17
Because we, [being] many, are one loaf, one body; for we all partake of that one loaf.
18
See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar?
19
What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20
But that what [the nations] sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. Now I do not wish you to be in communion with demons.
21
Ye cannot drink [the] Lord's cup, and [the] cup of demons: ye cannot partake of [the] Lord's table, and of [the] table of demons.
22
Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23
All things are lawful, but all are not profitable; all things are lawful, but all do not edify.
24
Let no one seek his own [advantage], but that of the other.
25
Everything sold in the shambles eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.
26
For the earth [is] the Lord's and its fulness.
27
But if any one of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are minded to go, all that is set before you eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake.
28
But if any one say to you, This is offered to holy purposes, do not eat, for his sake that pointed it out, and conscience sake;
29
but conscience, I mean, not thine own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another conscience?
30
If *I* partake with thanksgiving, why am I spoken evil of for what *I* give thanks for?
31
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.
32
Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God.
33
Even as *I* also please all in all things; not seeking my own profit, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
