1 Corinthians 9:25

Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.

Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last for ever.

Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

All athletes practice strict self–control. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize.

All good athletes train hard. They do it for a gold medal that tarnishes and fades. You're after one that's gold eternally.

And every man who takes part in the sports has self-control in all things. Now they do it to get a crown which is of this world, but we for an eternal crown.

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 .

Each competitor must exercise self-control in everything. They do it to receive a perishable crown, but we an imperishable one.
