^{24 Ref} have ye not known that those running in a race -- all indeed run, but one doth receive the prize? so run ye, that ye may obtain;

^{25 Ref} 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 Ref} I, therefore, thus run, not as uncertainly, thus I fight, as not beating air;

^{27 Ref} but I chastise my body, and bring `it' into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.

^{24 Ref} Don't you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win.

^{25 Ref} 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.

^{26 Ref} I therefore run like that, as not uncertainly. I fight like that, as not beating the air,

^{27 Ref} but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
