# I did not run in vain or labor in vain
The phrases "run in vain" and "labor in vain" here mean the same thing. Paul uses them together to emphasize how hard he has worked to help people believe in Christ. Alternate translation: "I did not work so hard for nothing" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-parallelism]])
# run
The scriptures often use the image of walking to represent conducting one's life. Running is living life intensely. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
