7 And remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for ^gthe laborer deserves his wages. Do not go from house to house.

6 ^yLet the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches.

17 Let the elders ^zwho rule well be considered worthy of ^adouble honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching. 18 For the Scripture says, ^b“You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain,” and, ^c“The laborer deserves his wages.”
