And Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord;

And Jesus said to them, "I ask you, is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do evil??o save a soul, or to destroy it?"

For whosoever wishes to save his soul shall lose it; but whosoever will lose his soul for My sake, the same shall save it.

And he, answering, said, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself."

And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have much goods laid up for many years; take your ease, eat, drink, be merry.'

But God said to him, 'Senseless one! this night they require your soul of you; and the things you prepared, whose shall they be?'

And He said to His disciples, "Therefore, I say to you, be not anxious for your soul, what ye shall eat; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on;

for the soul is more than the food; and the body, than the clothing.

"If any one comes to Me, and hates not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brothers, and sisters, and, further, his own soul also, he cannot be My disciple.

Whosoever shall seek to gain his soul shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose it, will preserve it.
