1 Corinthians 9:10 in Context — 1 Corinthians 9

8 ¿Digo esto según los hombres? ¿no dice esto también la ley?

9 Porque en la ley de Moisés está escrito: No pondrás bozal al buey que trilla. ¿Tiene Dios cuidado de los bueyes?

10 ¿O dícelo enteramente por nosotros? Pues por nosotros está escrito; porque con esperanza ha de arar el que ara; y el que trilla, con esperanza de recibir el fruto.

11 Si nosotros os sembramos lo espiritual, ¿es gran cosa si segáremos lo vuestro carnal?

12 Si otros tienen en vosotros esta potestad, ¿no más bien nosotros? Mas no hemos usado de esta potestad: antes lo sufrimos todo, por no poner ningún obstáculo al evangelio de Cristo.
