'Holds' in the Bible
For in this case the saying is true, ‘One [person] sows and another reaps.’
He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life of the Ages.
for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
