1 Corinthians 9:25-10:5
New International Version
25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown(A) that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.(B) 26 Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly;(C) I do not fight like a boxer beating the air.(D) 27 No, I strike a blow to my body(E) and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.(F)
Warnings From Israel’s History
10 For I do not want you to be ignorant(G) of the fact, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud(H) and that they all passed through the sea.(I) 2 They were all baptized into(J) Moses in the cloud and in the sea. 3 They all ate the same spiritual food(K) 4 and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock(L) that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ. 5 Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered in the wilderness.(M)
