And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. | Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. So they do it to obtain a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. |
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway. | But I strictly discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified. |
Bible verse of the day
A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself;but the simple pass on, and are punished.
