Jn 12:24-26

24^* Amen, amen, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains just a grain of wheat;^r but if it dies, it produces much fruit. 25Whoever loves his life^* loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will preserve it for eternal life.^s 26Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there also will my servant be. The Father will honor whoever serves me.^t
