"The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops."
— 2 Timothy 2:6, World English Bible
“The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.”
“The husbandman that laboreth must be the first to partake of the fruits. ”
“The farmer who works hard ought to have the first share of the crops.”
“The husbandman that laboureth must first partake of the fruits.”
“It is right for the worker in the fields to be the first to take of the fruit.”
“The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.”
You therefore must endure hardship, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.
No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.
Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn't crowned unless he has competed by the rules.
The farmers who labor must be the first to get a share of the crops.
Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things.
Remember Jesus Christ, risen from the dead, of the seed of David, according to my Good News,
in which I suffer hardship to the point of chains as a criminal. But God's word isn't chained.
