Mark 9:50 - An Understandable Version (2005 edition)

⁵⁰ “Salt is good, but if it loses its salty flavor, what will you use to restore it? [i.e., it is difficult to restore the “salt” of sacrificial commitment to God once it is lost]. You should have salt in yourselves [i.e., develop the qualities of preserving, purifying commitment to God], and live peacefully with one another [i.e., instead of in rivalry. See 9:33-34].”
