1 Corinthians 9:25-27 But, every man who striveth in the games, in all things, useth self–control; ––they, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown, they may receive; but, we, an incorruptible!

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ But, every man who striveth in the games, in all things, useth self–control; ––they, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown, they may receive; but, we, an incorruptible! ²⁶ I, therefore, so, am running, as, not uncertainly, so, am boxing, as not thrashing air; ²⁷ But am beating my body under, and leading it captive, lest, by any means,––unto others, having proclaimed, [the contest], I myself, should be rejected.
