1 Corinthians 9:24-27
Legacy Standard Bible

24 (A)Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives (B)the prize? (C)Run in such a way that you may win. 25 Now everyone who (D)competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a corruptible (E)crown, but we an incorruptible. 26 Therefore I (F)run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not (G)beating the air; 27 but I [a]discipline (H)my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

1 Corinthians 9:24-27
English Standard Version

24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives (A)the prize? So (B)run that you may obtain it. 25 Every (C)athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we (D)an imperishable. 26 So I do not run aimlessly; I (E)do not box as one (F)beating the air. 27 But I discipline my body and (G)keep it under control,[a] lest after preaching to others (H)I myself should be (I)disqualified.
