The Cost of Following Jesus

⁵⁷As they were going ^(A)along the road, ^(B)someone said to him, “I will follow you wherever you go.” ⁵⁸And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” ⁵⁹To another he said, “Follow me.” But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.” ⁶⁰And Jesus^[a] said to him, “Leave ^(C)the dead to bury their own dead. But as for you, go and ^(D)proclaim the kingdom of God.” ⁶¹Yet another said, “I will follow you, Lord, ^(E)but let me first say farewell to those at my home.” ⁶²Jesus said to him, ^(F)“No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.”

The Cost of Discipleship

²⁵Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, ²⁶^(A)“If anyone comes to me and ^(B)does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, ^(C)yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. ²⁷^(D)Whoever does not ^(E)bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. ²⁸For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not ^(F)first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? ²⁹Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, ³⁰saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ ³¹Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not ^(G)sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? ³²And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace. ³³^(H)So therefore, any one of you who ^(I)does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.
