1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (New Revised Standard)
24
Do you not know that in a race the runners all compete, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win it.
25
Athletes exercise self-control in all things; they do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable one.
26
So I do not run aimlessly, nor do I box as though beating the air;
27
but I punish my body and enslave it, so that after proclaiming to others I myself should not be disqualified.
