1 Corinthians 9:24-27 Perceaue ye not, howe that they which runne in a course, runne all, but one receaueth the rewarde? So runne, that ye maye obtayne.

Great⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ Perceaue ye not, howe that they which runne in a course, runne all, but one receaueth the rewarde? So runne, that ye maye obtayne. ²⁵ Euery man that proueth masteries, abstayneth from all thynges. And they do it to obtayne a crowne that shall perysshe: but we to obtayne an euerlasting crowne. ²⁶ I therfore so runne, not as at an vncertayne thyng. So fyght I, not as one that beateth the ayer: ²⁷ but I tame my body, & brynge it into subieccyon, lest by anye meanes it come to passe, that whan I haue preached to other, I my selfe shulde be a cast awaye.
