Proverbs

It is not good to eat much honey; So to seek one’s own glory is not glory.

Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; A stranger, and not your own lips.

Romans

If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification.

1 Corinthians

Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it.

And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.

Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Galatians

gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

Philippians

Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

Do all things without complaining and disputing,

I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Colossians

And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men,

2 Timothy

And also if anyone competes in athletics, he is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules.
