He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it.

For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it.

For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, he is the one who will save it.

Whoever seeks to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it.

He who loves his life loses it, and he who hates his life in this world will keep it to life eternal.

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?

For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits himself?

But whatever things were gain to me, those things I have counted as loss for the sake of Christ. More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ,
