Kehilah In Corinth 1 9:24-27 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

24. Do you not have da'as that the ones running on a race course all indeed run, but it is only one who receives the prize? So run that you may obtain the prize.

25. And everyone competing in the [Olympic] games in all things exercises shlitah atzmi: those ones, therefore, that they may obtain a perishable wreath; but we, an imperishable.

26. Therefore, I run not as one without a goal that is kovua (fixed, set). I box as not beating the air.

27. But I do more than merely spar with my basar; I pommel it and keep it under strict subjection, so that after I am the maggid to others, I myself will not become declared ineligible.
