1 Corinthians 9:15-18 But I have used none of these things; and I wrote not these things, that it may be so done in my case; for it were good for me rather to die, than that any one should make my glorying void.

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ But I have used none of these things; and I wrote not these things, that it may be so done in my case; for it were good for me rather to die, than that any one should make my glorying void. ¹⁶ For, if I proclaim the Gospel, it is not to me a matter of boasting; for necessity is laid upon me; for woe is to me, if I proclaim not the Gospel. ¹⁷ For, if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but, if unwillingly, I have been entrusted with a stewardship. ¹⁸ What, then, is my reward? That, when proclaiming the Gospel, I may make the Gospel without charge, to the end that I may not fully use my right in the Gospel.
