|---|---|---|
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
|
For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever 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?

Strong's References
- G302 — ἄν (án, an): a primary particle; denoting a supposition, wish, possibility or uncertainty; (what-, where-, wither-, who-)soever. Usually unexpressed except by the subjunctive or potential mood. Also contracted for ἐάν (eán) G1437.
- G622 — ἀπόλλυμι (apóllymi, ap-ol'-loo-mee): from ἀπό (apó) G575 and the base of ὄλεθρος (ólethros) G3639; to destroy fully (reflexively, to perish, or lose), literally or figuratively; destroy, die, lose, mar, perish
- G846 — αὐτός (autós, ow-tos'): from the particle αὖ (aû) (perhaps akin to the base of ἀήρ (aḗr) G109 through the idea of a baffling wind) (backward); the reflexive pronoun self, used (alone or in the comparative ἑαυτοῦ (heautoû) G1438) of the third person , and (with the proper personal pronoun) of the other persons; her, it(-self), one, the other, (mine) own, said, (self-), the) same, ((him-, my-, thy- )self, (your-)selves, she, that, their(-s), them(-selves), there(-at, - by, -in, -into, -of, -on, -with), they, (these) things, this (man), those, together, very, which. Compare αὑτοῦ (hautoû) G848.
- G1063 — γάρ (gár, gar): a primary particle; properly, assigning a reason (used in argument, explanation or intensification; often with other particles); and, as, because (that), but, even, for, indeed, no doubt, seeing, then, therefore, verily, what, why, yet
- G1161 — δέ (dé, deh): a primary particle (adversative or continuative); but, and, etc.; also, and, but, moreover, now (often unexpressed in English)
- G1700 — ἐμοῦ (emoû, em-oo'): a prolonged form of μόχθος (móchthos) G3449; of me; me, mine, my
- G1752 — ἕνεκα (héneka, hen'-ek-ah): of uncertain affinity; on account of; because, for (cause, sake), (where-)fore, by reason of, that
- G2147 — εὑρίσκω (heurískō, hyoo-ris'-ko): a prolonged form of a primary εὕρω (heúrō) hyoo'-ro, which (together with another cognate form) εὑρέω (heuréō) hyoo-reh'-o is used for it in all the tenses except the present and imperfect; to find (literally or figuratively); find, get, obtain, perceive, see
- G2309 — θέλω (thélō, thel'-o): apparently strengthened from the alternate form of αἱρέομαι (hairéomai) G138; to determine (as an active option from subjective impulse; whereas βούλομαι (boúlomai) G1014 properly denotes rather a passive acquiescence in objective considerations), i.e. choose or prefer (literally or figuratively); by implication, to wish, i.e. be inclined to (sometimes adverbially, gladly); impersonally for the future tense, to be about to; by Hebraism, to delight in; desire, be disposed (forward), intend, list, love, mean, please, have rather, (be) will (have, -ling, - ling(-ly))
- G3739 — ὅς (hós, hos): probably a primary word (or perhaps a form of the article ὁ (ho) G3588); the relatively (sometimes demonstrative) pronoun, who, which, what, that; one, (an-, the) other, some, that, what, which, who(-m, -se), etc. See also οὗ (hoû) G3757.
- G4982 — σώζω (sṓzō, sode'-zo): from a primary σῶς (sōs) (contraction for obsolete σάος (sáos), "safe"); to save, i.e. deliver or protect (literally or figuratively); heal, preserve, save (self), do well, be (make) whole
- G5590 — ψυχή (psychḗ, psoo-khay'): from ψύχω (psýchō) G5594; breath, i.e. (by implication) spirit, abstractly or concretely (the animal sentient principle only; thus distinguished on the one hand from πνεῦμα (pneûma) G4151, which is the rational and immortal soul; and on the other from ζωή (zōḗ) G2222, which is mere vitality, even of plants: these terms thus exactly correspond respectively to the Hebrew H5315, H7307 and H2416); heart (+ -ily), life, mind, soul, + us, + you
