How the Truth Should Be Presented - Though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law; to them that are without law, as without law (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ), that I might gain them that are without law. To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

Thi skønt jeg står fri over for alle, har jeg dog gjort mig til tjener for alle, for at jeg kunne vinde des flere. For jøderne er jeg blevet som en jøde for at kunne vinde jøder; for de lovbundne er jeg, der ikke selv er lovbunden, blevet som en lovbunden for at kunne vinde de lovbundne; for dem, der er uden lov, er jeg, der ikke er uden lov for Gud, men bunden af Kristi lov, blevet, som om jeg var uden lov, (ikke være uden lov over for Gud, men under Kristi lov) for at kunne vinde dem, der er uden lov. For de svage er jeg blevet svag for at kunne vinde de svage; for alle er jeg blevet alt for i alt fald at kunne frelse nogle.
