No, I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

[27] I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, after preaching to others, I myself might be disqualified.

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