24 have you not known that those running in a race -- all indeed run, but one does receive the prize? so run you, that you may obtain;
25 and every one who is striving, is in all things temperate; these, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown they may receive, but we an incorruptible;
26 I, therefore, thus run, not as uncertainly, thus I fight, as not beating air;
27 but I chastise my body, and bring it into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.
