# Issue 1962
[1962](https://git.door43.org/WycliffeAssociates/en_ulb/issues/1962)
# we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake
Carrying the death of Jesus represents being in danger of dying because of being loyal to Jesus. Alternate translation: "God is always leading those of us who are alive to face death because we are joined to Jesus" or "People are always causing us who are alive to be in danger of dying because we are joined to Jesus" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
# so that the life of Jesus may be revealed in our body
# so that the life of Jesus may be revealed in our mortal flesh
God wants Jesus' life be shown in us. Possible meanings are 1) "our bodies will live again, because Jesus is alive" or 2) "the spiritual life that Jesus gives also may be shown in our bodies." See how you translated this phrase in [2 Corinthians 4:10](../04/10.md).
This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "so that God may reveal the life of Jesus in our mortal flesh" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])

Possible meanings are 1) Paul is referring to the life that Jesus lives. Alternate translation: "God may reveal that Jesus is alive" 2) Paul is referring to the life that Jesus gives to his people. Alternate translation: "God may reveal the life that Jesus gives to his people" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-activepassive]])
