John 12:24-26
1599 Geneva Bible
24 [a]Verily, verily I say unto you, Except the wheat corn fall into the ground and [b]die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
25 (A)He that loveth his life, shall lose it, and he that hateth his life in this world, shall keep it unto life eternal.
26 (B)If any man serve me, let him follow me: for where I am, there shall my servant be: and if any man serve me, him will my father honor.

- John 12:24 The death of Christ is as it were a sowing, which seemeth to be a dying to the corn, but indeed is the cause of a far greater harvest: and such as is the condition of the head, so shall it be of the members.
- John 12:24 A wheat corn dieth when it is changed by virtue of the ground, and becometh a root of a fruitful blade.

John 12:24-26
New International Version
24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies,(A) it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it(B) for eternal life.(C) 26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be.(D) My Father will honor the one who serves me.
