have ye not known that those running in a race -- all indeed run, but one doth receive the prize? so run ye, that ye may obtain;

and every one who is striving, is in all things temperate; these, indeed, then, that a corruptible crown they may receive, but we an incorruptible;

but I chastise my body, and bring [it] into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved.

but in the most of them God was not well pleased, for they were strewn in the wilderness,

No temptation hath taken you -- except human; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].

But much more the members of the body which seem to be more infirm are necessary,

and our seemly things have no need; but God did temper the body together, to the lacking part having given more abundant honour,

that there may be no division in the body, but that the members may have the same anxiety for one another,

for he who is speaking in an [unknown] tongue -- to men he doth not speak, but to God, for no one doth hearken, and in spirit he doth speak secrets;

for thou, indeed, dost give thanks well, but the other is not built up!
