| Athletes exercise self-control in all things; they do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable one. | And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown. |
| But I punish my body and enslave it, so that after proclaiming to others I myself should not be disqualified. | But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified. |
