| 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 seeks a prize submits himself to rigorous self-discipline in every respect. They do so to win a perishable crown, while we seek an imperishable one. |
| 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. | Rather, I discipline my body and bring it under control, for fear that after preaching to others I myself may be disqualified. |
Bible verse of the day
As for God, his way is perfect:the word of the Lord is tried:
he is a buckler to all those that trust in him.
