John 12:23-25

New Testament for Everyone

²³ “The time has come,” said Jesus in reply. “This is the moment for the son of man to be glorified. ²⁴ I’m telling you the solemn truth: unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains all by itself. If it dies, though, it will produce lots of fruit. ²⁵ If you love your life, you’ll lose it. If you hate your life in this world, you’ll keep it for the life of the coming age.
