1 Corinthians 9:25 in Context — 1 Corinthians 9
23 Je fais tout à cause de l’Évangile, afin d’y avoir part.
24 Ne savez-vous pas que ceux qui courent dans le stade courent tous, mais qu’un seul remporte le prix? Courez de manière à le remporter.
25 Tous ceux qui combattent s’imposent toute espèce d’abstinences, et ils le font pour obtenir une couronne corruptible; mais nous, faisons-le pour une couronne incorruptible.
26 Moi donc, je cours, non pas comme à l’aventure; je frappe, non pas comme battant l’air.
27 Mais je traite durement mon corps et je le tiens assujetti, de peur d’être moi-même rejeté, après avoir prêché aux autres.
