- For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a slave to all, so that I may win more.
- To the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might win Jews; to those who are under the Law, as under the Law though not being myself under the Law, so that I might win those who are under the Law;
- to those who are without law, as without law, though not being without the law of God but under the law of Christ, so that I might win those who are without law.
- To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak; I have become all things to all men, so that I may by all means save some.
- I do all things for the sake of the gospel, so that I may become a fellow partaker of it.
|
- For though I be free from all men, yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more.
- And unto the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain the Jews; to them that are under the law, as under the law, that I might gain them that are under the law;
- To them that are without law, as without law, (being not without law to God, but under the law to Christ,) that I might gain them that are without law.
- To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
- And this I do for the gospel's sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you.

- Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.
- 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.
- Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating the air;
- but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.
|
- Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
- 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.
- I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
- 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.
