1 Corinthians 9:24-27 Know ye not that those running a race, all, indeed, run; but one receives the prize? So run; that ye may obtain.

Worrell⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ Know ye not that those running a race, all, indeed, run; but one receives the prize? So run; that ye may obtain. ²⁵ And every one who strives in the games exercises self restraint in all things; they, indeed, therefore, to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible. ²⁶ I, therefore, so run, as not uncertainly I so fight, as not beating the air. ²⁷ But I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage; lest, by any means, after having preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
