2 Timothy 2:3-5
Revised Geneva Translation
3 You, therefore, suffer affliction as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No one who serves as a soldier entangles himself with the affairs of life, because he wants to please the one who has chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And also, if anyone competes as an athlete, he is not crowned unless he has competed lawfully.

New International Version
3 Join with me in suffering,(A) like a good soldier(B) of Christ Jesus. 4 No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. 5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown(C) except by competing according to the rules.
