1 Corinthians 7:29-31

29 This is what I mean, brothers: ^hthe appointed time has grown very short. From now on, let those who have wives live as though they had none, 30 and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy ⁱas though they had no goods, 31 and those who deal with the world as though they had no dealings with it. For ^jthe present form of this world is passing away.

1 Corinthians 9:24-27

24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one receives ^kthe prize? So ^lrun that you may obtain it. 25 Every ^mathlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we ⁿan imperishable. 26 So I do not run aimlessly; I ^odo not box as one ^pbeating the air. 27 But I discipline my body and ^qkeep it under control, ^{▼▼Greek I pummel my body and make it a slave} lest after preaching to others ^sI myself should be ^tdisqualified.
