'Laborer' in the Bible

At that time I also said to the people, “Let each man with his servant spend the night inside Jerusalem so that they may serve as a guard for us at night and a laborer during the day.”

The appetite of a worker works for him,For his hunger urges him on.

Stay in that house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not move from house to house.

Now to a laborer, his wages are not credited as a favor or a gift, but as an obligation [something owed to him].

For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle the ox while it is treading out the grain [to keep it from eating],” and, “The worker is worthy of his wages [he deserves fair compensation].”
