²⁴ For ^(A)whoever wants to save his ^[a]life will lose it, but whoever loses his ^[b]life for My sake, this is the one who will save it.

²⁶ “^(A)If anyone comes to Me and does not ^[a]hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple.

^25 (A)The one who loves his ^[a]life loses it, and the one who ^(B)hates his ^[b]life in this world will keep it ^[c]to eternal life.

³³ So then, none of you can be My disciple who ^(A)does not ^[a]give up all his own possessions.

²⁴ Now those who ^[a]belong to ^(A)Christ Jesus ^(B)crucified the flesh with its passions and ^(C)desires.
