1 Am I not free? Am I not an emissary? Have I not seen Yeshua our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord?
2 If to others I am not an emissary, at least I am to you—for you are the seal of my office of emissary in the Lord.
3 My defense to those who examine me is this.
4 Don’t we have the right to food and drink?
5 Don’t we have the right to take along a believing wife, as do the other emissaries and the Lord’s brothers and Kefa?
6 Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to not work?
