1 Corinthians 9:16-23

Godbey(i) 16 For if I preach the gospel, there is no boasting to me; for necessity is laid upon me; for woe is unto me, if I may not preach the gospel. 17 For if I do this willingly, I have a reward: but if unwillingly, I have been intrusted with a dispensation. 18 Then what is my reward? that preaching the gospel, I may render the gospel free from charge, in order that I may not use my right in the gospel. 19 For being free from all, I rendered myself servant to all, that I may gain the more. 20 And to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I may gain the Jews; to those under the law, as under the law, not myself being under law, that I may gain those under the law; 21 to those without law, I became as without law, not being without the law of God, but under the law of Christ, that I may gain those without law. 22 To the weak I became as weak, that I may gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I may indeed save some. 23 But I do all these things for the sake of the gospel, that I may be its fellow-partaker.
