1 Corinthians 9:27
No, I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.
But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.
but I buffet my body, and bring it into bondage: lest by any means, after that I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.
