Know ye not that they who run in the race-course run all, but one receives the prize? Thus run in order that ye may obtain.
and I went up according to revelation, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preach among the nations, but privately to those conspicuous among them, lest in any way I run or had run in vain;
holding forth the word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ's day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain.
Let us also therefore, having so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight, and sin which so easily entangles us, run with endurance the race that lies before us,

Know ye not that they who run in the race-course run all, but one receives the prize? Thus run in order that ye may obtain.
holding forth the word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ's day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain.
Let us also therefore, having so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, laying aside every weight, and sin which so easily entangles us, run with endurance the race that lies before us, looking stedfastly on Jesus the leader and completer of faith: who, in view of the joy lying before him, endured the cross, having despised the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among the dead. Not that I have already obtained the prize, or am already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may get possession of it, seeing that also I have been taken possession of by Christ Jesus. Brethren, I do not count to have got possession myself; but one thing forgetting the things behind, and stretching out to the things before, read more.
I pursue, looking towards the goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.
I pursue, looking towards the goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.
