Paul does in 1 Timothy , He quotes from the gospel of Luke
1Ti 5:18For the scripture saith, Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn. And, The labourer [is] worthy of his reward.
Luk 10:7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
The greek word for reward is the same as hire

Um, no. Both of these (and 1 Cor 9:9) are refering to the Old Testament.
Deuteronomy 25:4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn.
Paul is not quoting Luke, he is quoting the OT.
