Wer sein Leben liebhat, der wird's verlieren; und wer sein Leben auf dieser Welt haßt, der wird's erhalten zum ewigen Leben.
El que ama su vida, la perderá; y el que aborrece su vida en este mundo, para vida eterna la guardará.
Celui qui aime sa vie la perdra, et celui qui hait sa vie dans ce monde la conservera pour la vie éternelle.
Chi ama la sua vita la perderà, e chi odia la sua vita in questo mondo la conserverà in vita eterna.
Quem ama a sua vida perdê-la-á, e quem neste mundo odeia a sua vida, guardá-la-á para a vida eterna.
愛惜自己性命的,就喪失性命;那恨惡自己在這世上的性命的,要保全性命到永生。
