\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-1|1]] Am I not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-2|2]] If I be not an apostle unto others, yet doubtless I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are ye in the Lord.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-3|3]] Mine answer to them that do examine me is this,
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-4|4]] Have we not power to eat and to drink?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-5|5]] Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and as the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-6|6]] Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-7|7]] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? 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?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-8|8]] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-9|9]] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-10|10]] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-11|11]] If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-12|12]] If others be partakers of this power over you, are not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-13|13]] Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live of the things of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-14|14]] Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-15|15]] But I have used none of these things: neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-16|16]] For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-17|17]] For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-18|18]] What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-19|19]] For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-20|20]] And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-21|21]] To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-22|22]] To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-23|23]] And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-24|24]] Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-25|25]] And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-26|26]] I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
\\ [[commentaar:1corinthe9-27|27]] But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
