Jesus Foretells His Death
21 aFrom that time ▼▼Two early mss Jesus Christ
Jesus began to ▼▼Or show
point out to His disciples that it was necessary for Him to go to Jerusalem and to dsuffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and to be raised up on the third day. 22And yet Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “ ▼▼Lit (God be) merciful to You
God forbid it, Lord! This shall never ▼▼Lit be
happen to You!” 23But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, gSatan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on ▼▼Lit the things of God
God’s purposes, but men’s.” Discipleship Is Costly
24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, itake up his cross, and follow Me. 25 For jwhoever wants to save his ▼▼Or soul
life will lose it; but whoever loses his ▼▼Or soul
life for My sake will find it. 26 For what good will it do a person if he gains the whole world, but ▼▼I.e., suffers the loss of
forfeits his soul? Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul? 27 For the nSon of Man ois going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and pwill then repay every person according to his ▼▼Lit activity
deeds. 28 “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the rSon of Man scoming in His kingdom.”
