Exegesis
The main clause is oudenos logou poioumai ten psuchen timian emauto {οὐδενὸς λόγου ποιοῦμαι τὴν ψυχὴν τιμίαν ἐμαυτῷ}, where the idiom logou poioumai {λόγου ποιοῦμαι} “to make of account” expresses valuation.
In context — Acts 20:24
But I do not consider my life precious to myself of any account, so that I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus , to testify to the gospel of the grace of God .
