Or does not the Law say the same also? 9 For it is written in the Law of Moses, 'You shall not muzzle an ox while it treads out the grain.' Does God care for oxen? 10 Or does He say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he who plows should plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should partake of his hope. 11 If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it a great thing if we reap your material things? 12 If others are partakers of this right over you, should not we even more?
