1 Corinthians 9:8-10

New King James Version

⁸ Do I say these things as a mere man? Or does not the law say the same also? ⁹ For it is written in the law of Moses, ^(A)“You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.” Is it oxen God is concerned about? ¹⁰ Or does He say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written, that ^(B)he who plows should plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should be partaker of his hope.
