The context

10Or is he speaking entirely for our sake? Yes, for our sake it was written, because the one who plows ought to plow in hope, and the one who threshes ought to thresh in hope of sharing in the harvest.

11 · This verse (above)

12If others share in the right over you, do we not even more? But we did not make use of this right; instead, we endure all things so that we may not put any obstacle in the way of the good news of the Messiah.
