1st Corinthians 9:3

1 Am I not free? am I not an Apostle? have I not seen Jesus our Lord? are you not my work in the Lord?

2 If to others I am not an Apostle, at least I am one to you: for the fact that you are Christians is the sign that I am an Apostle.

3 My answer to those who are judging me is this.

4 Have we no right to take food and drink?

5 Have we no right to take about with us a Christian wife, like the rest of the Apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

6 Or I only and Barnabas, have we no right to take a rest from work?

7 Who ever goes to war without looking to someone to be responsible for his payment? who puts in vines and does not take the fruit of them? or who takes care of sheep without drinking of their milk?
