| Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. | Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible. |
| No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. | But I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified. |

From his temple he heard my voice;
my cry came before him, into his ears.
