Matthew 16:26


← Matthew 16:25 [words of Jesus] Matthew 16:26 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 16:27 [words of Jesus] →
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?
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
