Would it be possible to put a period after EKATONTAPLASIONA, with the
following meaning:

"Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters
or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of
the good news, who will not receive a hundredfold.
Now in this age to have houses, brothers and sisters, mothers and children,
and fields with persecutions? For what? In the age to come life is eternal!"


Best wishes
