Deuteronomy 12:12

12And ayou shall rejoice before the Lord your God, you and your sons and your daughters, your male servants and your female servants, and the Levite that is within your towns, since bhe has no portion or inheritance with you.

Deuteronomy 12:18-19

18but cyou shall eat them before the Lord your God in dthe place that the Lord your God will choose, you and your son and your daughter, your male servant and your female servant, and the Levite who is within your towns. And eyou shall rejoice before the Lord your God in all that you undertake. 19 fTake care that you do not neglect the Levite as long as you live in your land.

Matthew 10:10

10no bag for your journey, or two tunics
Greek chiton, a long garment worn under the cloak next to the skin
or sandals or a staff, for hthe laborer deserves his food.

1 Corinthians 9:4-15

4 iDo we not have the right to eat and drink? 5 jDo we not have the right to take along a believing wife,
Greek  a sister as wife
as do the other apostles and lthe brothers of the Lord and mCephas?
6Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working for a living? 7 nWho serves as a soldier at his own expense? oWho plants a vineyard without eating any of its fruit? Or who tends a flock without getting some of the milk?

8Do I say these things on human authority? Does not the Law say the same? 9For it is written in the Law of Moses, p“You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain.” Is it for oxen that God is concerned? 10Does he not certainly speak for our sake? It was written qfor our sake, because rthe plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of sharing in the crop. 11 sIf we have sown spiritual things among you, is it too much if we reap material things from you? 12If others share this rightful claim on you, do not we even more?

Nevertheless, twe have not made use of this right, but we endure anything urather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.
13Do you not know that vthose who are employed in the temple service get their food from the temple, and those who serve at the altar share in the sacrificial offerings? 14In the same way, the Lord commanded that wthose who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel.

15But xI 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 ydeprive me of my ground for boasting.

Galatians 6:6

6 zLet the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one who teaches.

Philippians 4:17-18

17 aaNot that I seek the gift, but I seek abthe fruit that increases to your credit.
Or I seek the profit that accrues to your account
18I have received full payment, and more. I am well supplied, adhaving received from Epaphroditus the gifts you sent, aea fragrant offering, afa sacrifice acceptable and pleasing to God.
