1 Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Haven't I seen Jesus our Lord? Aren't you the result of my work for the Lord?
2 Even though others may not think of me as an apostle, I am certainly one to you! You are the proof that I am the Lord's apostle.
3 That is what I say to stand up for myself when people judge me.
4 Don't we have the right to eat and drink?
