Matthew 10:41

³⁹ Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.

⁴⁰ He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

Whoever receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive a righteous man’s reward.

⁴² And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, truly I tell you, he will never lose his reward.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
