New Testament

1 Corinthians 9:24-27 Modern English Version (MEV)

24. Do you not know that all those who run in a race run, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain it.

25. Everyone who strives for the prize exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible one.

26. So, therefore, I run, not with uncertainty. So I fight, not as one who beats the air.

27. But I bring and keep my body under subjection, lest when preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.
