Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that[ is] unprofitable for you.

And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you;And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake.[ And] be at peace among yourselves.

Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.

Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:

Or he that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth,[ let him do it] with simplicity; he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.

The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of[ their] conversation.

Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and[ as] the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to forbear working?Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also?For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?Or saith he[ it] altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt,[ this] is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope.If we have sown unto you spiritual things,[ is it] a great thing if we shall reap your carnal things?If others be partakers of[ this] power over you,[ are] not we rather? Nevertheless we have not used this power; but suffer all things, lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.Do ye not know that they which minister about holy things live[ of the things] of the temple? and they which wait at the altar are partakers with the altar?Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded[ us] with such things as were necessary.

It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.

Honour widows that are widows indeed.

And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.

We then,[ as] workers together[ with him], beseech[ you] also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.

And I intreat thee also, true yokefellow, help those women which laboured with me in the gospel, with Clement also, and[ with] other my fellowlabourers, whose names[ are] in the book of life.

After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly[ is] great, but the labourers[ are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.

( For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

Which also they did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare[ that] I will render double unto thee;

And first I will recompense their iniquity and their sin double; because they have defiled my land, they have filled mine inheritance with the carcases of their detestable and abominable things.

For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry,[ ye are] God’s building.

Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain.

Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

Salute Tryphena and Tryphosa, who labour in the Lord. Salute the beloved Persis, which laboured much in the Lord.

But by the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which[ was bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.

Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the LORD’S hand double for all her sins.

Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.

I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with[ us], and laboureth.

And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward, whom[ his] lord shall make ruler over his household, to give[ them their] portion of meat in due season?

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.

Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly[ is] plenteous, but the labourers[ are] few;Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

If thou put the brethren in remembrance of these things, thou shalt be a good minister of Jesus Christ, nourished up in the words of faith and of good doctrine, whereunto thou hast attained.

Behold, I have told you before.
