Luke 9:23-27
English Standard Version
Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus
23 And he said to all, “If anyone would come after me, let him (A)deny himself and (B)take up his cross (C)daily and follow me. 24 For (D)whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will save it. 25 (E)For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself? 26 For (F)whoever is ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed (G)when he comes in (H)his glory and the glory of the Father and of (I)the holy angels. 27 But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who will not (J)taste death (K)until they see the kingdom of God.”

23 And He was saying to them all, “(A)If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow Me. 24 For (B)whoever wants to save his [a]life will lose it, but whoever loses his [b]life for My sake, this is the one who will save it. 25 For what good does it do a person if he gains the whole world, but (C)loses or forfeits himself? 26 (D)For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory and the glory of the Father and the holy angels. 27 But I say to you truthfully, (E)there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God.”
