Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. | 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 discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified. | Rather, I discipline my body and bring it under control, for fear that after preaching to others I myself may be disqualified. |
