1 Corinthians 9:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
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 [a]oxen?
10 Either saith he it not altogether for our sakes? For our sakes no doubt it is written, that he which eareth, should ear in hope, and that he that thresheth in hope, should be partaker of his hope.
11 (B)[b]If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap your carnal things?
