Disciples’ Literal New Testament
23 And Jesus responds to them, saying, “The hour has come for[a] the Son of Man to be glorified. 24 Truly, truly, I say to you, unless the seed of wheat having fallen to the earth dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25 The one loving his life loses it, and the one hating his life in this world will keep[b] it for eternal life.
