1 Corinthians 9:15

But I have made no use of any of these rights , nor am I writing these things to secure any such provision . For I would rather die than have anyone deprive me of my ground for boasting .

But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this in the hope that you will do such things for me, for I would rather die than allow anyone to deprive me of this boast.

But I have used none of these things : neither have I written these things, that it should be so done unto me : for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make my glorying void.
