Luke 17:33

33 Any man who makes it his object to keep his own life safe, will lose it; but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

Luke 17:33 In-Context

31 "On that day, if a man is on the roof and his property indoors, let him not go down to fetch it; and, in the same way, he who is in the field, let him not turn back.
32 Remember Lot's wife.
33 Any man who makes it his object to keep his own life safe, will lose it; but whoever loses his life will preserve it.
34 On that night, I tell you, there will be two men in one bed: one will be taken away and the other left behind.
35 There will be two women turning the mill together: one will be taken away and the other left behind."
