1 Timothy 5:17

Honoring the Elders

17 ^aThe elders who ^blead well are to be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who ^clabor ¹at preaching the word and teaching.

1 Timothy 5:18

« 1 Tim 41 Tim 51 Tim 6 »

18 For the Scripture says, “^aYou shall not muzzle the ox while it is threshing,” and “^bThe laborer is worthy of his wages.”

1 Corinthians 9:8-10

« 1 Cor 81 Cor 91 Cor 10 »

8 Am I speaking these things ^aaccording to ¹human judgment? Or does not the Law also say these things? 9 For it is written in the Law of Moses, “^aYou shall not muzzle the ox while it is threshing.” Is God merely concerned about ^boxen? 10 Or is He speaking altogether for our sake? Yes, ^afor our sake it was written, because ^bthe plowman ought to plow in hope, and the thresher to thresh in hope of sharing the crops.
