men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I
might win the more 20 and to the Jews I became
as a Jew, that I might win Jews to those who are
under the law, as under the law, that I might win
those who are under the law 21 to those who are
without law, as without law (not being without
law toward God, but under law toward Christ),
that I might win those who are without law 22
to the weak I became as weak, that I might win
the weak. I have become all things to all men,
that I might by all means save some. 23 Now this
I do for the gospel's sake, that I may be
partaker of it with you.
