King James Version
"For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more."
— 1 Corinthians 9:19, King James Version
“For though I was free from all men, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more. ”
“For though I was free from all, I brought myself under bondage to all, that I might gain the more.”
“For since I am free from all I can make myself a slave to all, in order to gain even more people.”
“For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.”
“For though I was free from all men, I made myself a servant to all, so that more might have salvation.”
“For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.”
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation of the gospel is committed unto me.
What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
