Do we not have the right to eat and drink?

We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;

But in all things commending ourselves as ministers of God; in much endurance, in afflictions, in needs, in distresses,

in stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in fastings,

in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

in hardship and toil, in sleeplessness often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness;

I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in everything I am taught both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to lack.

For you have taken a pledge from your brother for no reason, and stripped the naked of their clothing.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall affliction, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to have died.

And when they had laid many stripes on them, they threw them into prison, commanding the jailer to keep them securely.

And the high priest Ananias commanded those who stood by him to strike him on the mouth.

Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as a fool) I excel them: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.

Three times I was beaten with rods; once I was stoned; three times I was shipwrecked; a night and a day I have been in the deep;

persecutions, afflictions, which happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured. And out of them all the Lord delivered me.

And Jesus said to him, Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.
