1. AM not I free? Am not I an apostle? Have not I seen Christ Jesus our Lord? Are not you my work in the Lord?
2. And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
3. My defence with them that do examine me is this.
4. Have not we power to eat and to drink?
5. Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
6. Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?
7. Who serveth as a soldier at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
