²⁶ For what profit has a man, if he gets all the world with the loss of his life? or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

⁸ For what is the hope of the sinner when he is cut off, when God takes back his soul?

²⁰ But God said to him, You foolish one, tonight I will take your soul from you, and who then will be the owner of all the things which you have got together?

⁷ Truly, no man may get back his soul for a price, or give to God the payment for himself;

⁸ (Because it takes a great price to keep his soul from death, and man is not able to give it.)

³⁶ What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?

³⁷ And what would a man give in exchange for his life?

²⁵ For what profit will a man have if he gets all the world, but undergoes loss or destruction himself?

²⁹ And if your right eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out and put it away from you; because it is better to undergo the loss of one part, than for all your body to go into hell.

²⁵ But Abraham said, Keep in mind, my son, that when you were living, you had your good things, while Lazarus had evil things: but now, he is comforted and you are in pain.

⁸ Again, the Evil One took him up to a very high mountain, and let him see all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them;

⁹ And he said to him, All these things will I give you, if you will go down on your face and give me worship.

⁴ And the Satan said in answer to the Lord, Skin for skin, all a man has he will give for his life.
