Thou hast made me know the ways of life, thou wilt fill me with joy with thy presence.

And I wrote the same to you that coming I might not have sorrow for those in whom I ought to have joy, having trusted in you all that my joy is the joy of you all.

I have spoken these things to you that my joy may be in you, and your joy be completed.

He that loves his life shall lose it, and he that hates his life in this world shall preserve it to eternal life.

THAT which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we beheld and our hands felt, concerning the Word of life,??2 and the life was made manifest, and we have seen, and testify, and declare to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested to us,??3 that which we have seen and heard, we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

He that finds his life shall lose it, and he that loses his life for my sake shall find it.

For whoever wishes to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake, shall find it.

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world and lose his life? Or what will a man give as an exchange for his life?

For whoever wishes to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever shall lose his life for my sake, and that of the good news, shall save it.

who shall not receive a hundred fold now at this present time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions, and in the life to come eternal life.

For whoever wishes to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.

who shall not receive manifold more in this time, and in the life to come eternal life.

In him was life, and the life was the light of men;

He that believes on the Son has eternal life; but he that disbelieves the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God continues on him.

I tell you most truly, he that hears my word and believes him that sent me has eternal life, and comes not into judgment, but has passed from death to life.

For as the Father has life in himself, so has he also given to the Son to have life in himself;

for if by one fall death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of the grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life through the one, Jesus Christ;??18 therefore, as through the fall of one [judgment came] on all men to condemnation, so also through the righteous ordinance of one [the gift comes] on all men to justification of life;

But we speak wisdom among the perfect, but not the wisdom of this life, nor of the rulers of this life, who are destroyed;

in one an odor of death to death, and in the other an odor of life to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

for bodily exercise profits little; but piety is profitable in all things, having a promise of the present life and of the life to come.

And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

He that has the Son has the life; he that has not the Son has not the life.
