Matthew 10:39 Douay-Rheims

He that findeth his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for me, shall find it.

Hilary of Poitiers

c. A.D. 310–367 Patristic

Thus the gain of life brings death, the loss of life brings salvation; for by the sacrifice of this short life we gain the reward of immortality.
