1 Corinthians 9:20-27
20To theG3588 JewsG2453 I becameG1096 likeG5613 a JewG2453, toG2443 winG2770 the JewsG2453. To thoseG3588 underG5259 the lawG3551 I became like one underG5259 the lawG3551 (though I myselfG846 amG1510 notG3361 underG5259 the lawG3551), toG2443 winG2770 thoseG3588 underG5259 the lawG3551. 21To thoseG3588 without the lawG459 I became like one without the lawG459 (though I amG1510 notG3361 outside the lawG459 of GodG2316 butG235 am under the lawG1772 of ChristG5547), toG2443 winG2770 thoseG3588 without the lawG459. 22To theG3588 weakG772 I becameG1096 weakG772, toG2443 winG2770 theG3588 weakG772. I have becomeG1096 allG3956 thingsG3588 to allG3956 people so thatG2443 by all possible meansG3843 I might saveG4982 someG5100.
I doG4160 allG3956 this for the sake ofG1223 theG3588 gospelG2098, so thatG2443 I may shareG1096G4791 in itsG846 blessings.
24Do you not knowG3756G1492 thatG3754 inG1722 a raceG4712 allG3956 theG3588 runnersG5143 runG5143, butG1161 only oneG1520 receivesG2983 theG3588 prizeG1017? RunG5143 in such a wayG3779 as toG2443 takeG2638 the prize. 25EveryoneG3956 whoG3588 competes in the gamesG75 trains with strict disciplineG1467G3956. TheyG1565 do it for a crownG4735 that is perishableG5349, butG1161 weG1473 do it for a crown that is imperishableG862. 26ThereforeG5106 IG1473 do not runG5143G3756 aimlesslyG3779G5613G84; I do not fightG4438G3756 likeG3779G5613 I am beatingG1194 the airG109. 27NoG235, I disciplineG5299 myG1473 bodyG4983 andG2532 make it my slaveG1396, so that after I have preachedG2784 to othersG243, I myselfG846 will not beG3361G4459G1096 disqualifiedG96.
