New Testament

1 Corinthians 9:16-21 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

16. For if I bring the Good News, it is no boasting for me, for necessity is laid on me, and it is woe to me if I do not bring the Good News!

17. For if I do this voluntarily I have a reward, but if not voluntarily, I am entrusted with a management.

18. What then is my reward? That in bringing the Good News, I should offer the Good News of Messiah without cost, so as not to abuse my authority in the Good News.

19. For though I am free from all, I made myself a servant to all, in order to win more,

20. and to the Yehuḏim I became as a Yehuḏite, that I might win Yehuḏim; to those who are under Torah, as under Torah, so as to win those who are under Torah;

21. to those without Torah, as without Torah – not being without Torah toward Elohim, but under Torah of Messiah – so as to win those who are without Torah.
