24 我实实在在地告诉你们:一粒麦子不落在地里死了,仍旧是一粒;若是死了,就结出许多子粒来。
I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheatfalls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25 爱惜自己生命的,就失丧生命;在这世上恨恶自己生命的,就要保守生命到永生。
The man who loves his life will lose it, while the man who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.
「和合本 vs NIV」John12:24-25
