1 Corinthians 9:27 | |
NASB: but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified. (NASB ©1995) GWT: Rather, I toughen my body with punches and make it my slave so that I will not be disqualified after I have spread the Good News to others. (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: 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. ASV: 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. BBE: But I give blows to my body, and keep it under control, for fear that, after having given the good news to others, I myself might not have God's approval. DBY: But I buffet my body, and lead it captive, lest after having preached to others I should be myself rejected. WEY: but I hit hard and straight at my own body and lead it off into slavery, lest possibly, after I have been a herald to others, I should myself be rejected. WBS: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest by any means when I have preached to others, I myself should be a cast-away. WEB: but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected. YLT: but I chastise my body, and bring [it] into servitude, lest by any means, having preached to others -- I myself may become disapproved. | |
