1 Corinthians 9:24-27 You know, that in a race, tho' all run, but one receives the prize: so run, that you may obtain.

Mace⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ You know, that in a race, tho' all run, but one receives the prize: so run, that you may obtain. ²⁵ every one that strives for the mastery, is extremely temperate: now, they do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible one. ²⁶ I therefore so run, not as one that is distanc'd: I fight, but not with the air. ²⁷ but I mortify my body, and bring it into subjection: lest after having been a herald to others, I my self should be thrown out.
