2 Timothy 2:3-7

3Suffer hardship with me, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

4No soldier on service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life; that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.

5And if also a man contend in the games, he is not crowned, except he have contended lawfully.

6The husbandman that laboureth must be the first to partake of the fruits.

7Consider what I say; for the Lord shall give thee understanding in all things.
