Павел напышьашәала иқәԥо ауаҩы ихы иҿирԥшит. Иара иҩит: «Баша аҳауаҿ снапҟьа-шьапҟьом» (1 Коринфаа рахь 9:26).
Drawing on the example of a boxer of ancient times, Paul said of himself: “The way I am aiming my blows is so as not to be striking the air.” (1 Cor. 9:26) Just as a boxer fights off his opponent, we must fend off our enemies.
