Don’t move around from home to home. Stay in one place, eating and drinking what they provide. Don’t hesitate to accept hospitality, because those who work deserve their pay.“ If you enter a town and it welcomes you, eat whatever is set before you.Heal the sick, and tell them,‘ The Kingdom of God is near you now.’But if a town refuses to welcome you, go out into its streets and say,‘ We wipe even the dust of your town from our feet to show that we have abandoned you to your fate. And know this— the Kingdom of God is near!’I assure you, even wicked Sodom will be better off than such a town on judgment day.

Elders who do their work well should be respected and paid well, especially those who work hard at both preaching and teaching.For the Scripture says,“ You must not muzzle an ox to keep it from eating as it treads out the grain.” And in another place,“ Those who work deserve their pay!”

“ But we don’t have anything to offer him,” Saul replied.“ Even our food is gone, and we don’t have a thing to give him.”

John replied,“ If you have two shirts, give one to the poor. If you have food, share it with those who are hungry.”

Those who are taught the word of God should provide for their teachers, sharing all good things with them.Don’t be misled— you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.

Don’t we have the right to live in your homes and share your meals?Don’t we have the right to bring a believing wife with us as the other apostles and the Lord’s brothers do, and as Peter does?Or is it only Barnabas and I who have to work to support ourselves?What soldier has to pay his own expenses? What farmer plants a vineyard and doesn’t have the right to eat some of its fruit? What shepherd cares for a flock of sheep and isn’t allowed to drink some of the milk?Am I expressing merely a human opinion, or does the law say the same thing?For the law of Moses says,“ You must not muzzle an ox to keep it from eating as it treads out the grain.” Was God thinking only about oxen when he said this?Wasn’t he actually speaking to us? Yes, it was written for us, so that the one who plows and the one who threshes the grain might both expect a share of the harvest.Since we have planted spiritual seed among you, aren’t we entitled to a harvest of physical food and drink?If you support others who preach to you, shouldn’t we have an even greater right to be supported? But we have never used this right. We would rather put up with anything than be an obstacle to the Good News about Christ.Don’t you realize that those who work in the temple get their meals from the offerings brought to the temple? And those who serve at the altar get a share of the sacrificial offerings.In the same way, the Lord ordered that those who preach the Good News should be supported by those who benefit from it.

When you come, be sure to bring the coat I left with Carpus at Troas. Also bring my books, and especially my papers.
