1 Corinthians 9:12

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

If others have this right to your support, shouldn’t we have it all the more? But we did not exercise this right. Instead, we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
If others partake of this right over you, don’t we yet more? Nevertheless we did not use this right, but we bear all things, that we may cause no hindrance to the Good News of Christ.
World English Bible (WEB)
If{G1487} others{G243} be partakers{G3348}{(G5719)} of this power{G1849} over you{G5216}, are not{G3756} we{G2249} rather{G3123}? Nevertheless{G235} we have{G5530} not{G3756} used{G5530}{(G5662)} this{G5026} power{G1849}; but{G235} suffer{G4722}{(G5719)} all things{G3956}, lest{G3363} we should{G1325}{(G5632)}{G5100} hinder{G1464} the gospel{G2098} of Christ{G5547}.
Strong's King James
(12) If others share this authority in you, don't we moreso? Yet, we didn't use this authoritative right but rather endured everything to not cause a hindrance to the good news of The Mashiach.
The F.O.G*
[12] If others have this right to support from you, don't we deserve it even more? But we haven't used this right! Instead, we endure anything rather than hinder the gospel of the Messiah.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
if others do partake of the authority over you—not we more? but we did not use this authority, but all things we bear, that we may give no hindrance to the good news of the Christ.
Young's Literal Translation
