1 Corinthians 9:25
King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible
And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
Everyone who competes in the games trains with strict discipline. They do it for a crown that is perishable, but we do it for a crown that is imperishable.
