21aFrom that time 1Jesus began to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and bsuffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised up on the third day. 22And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “1God forbid it, Lord! This shall never 2happen to You.” 23But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, aSatan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on 1God’s interests, but man’s.”
Take Up Your Cross
24Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and atake up his cross and follow Me. 25“For awhoever wishes to save his 1life will lose it; but whoever loses his 2life for My sake will find it. 26“For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 27“For the aSon of Man bis going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and cwill then 1repay each one according to his 2deeds.
