Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt hath lost its savor, with what shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot by men.

But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake, shall find it.

And whoever shall give to drink to one of these little ones, a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, verily, I say to you, he shall in no wise lose his reward.

But he answered and said, I am not sent but to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

For whoever will save his life, shall lose it: and whoever will lose his life for my sake, shall find it.

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
