For whosoever would save his life shall lose it; and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s shall save it.

Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.

Διοτι οστις θελει να σωση την ζωην αυτου, θελει απολεσει αυτην· και οστις απολεση την ζωην αυτου ενεκεν εμου και του ευαγγελιου, ουτος θελει σωσει αυτην.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.
