Mark 8:34-38

New American Standard Bible 1995

³⁴ And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and ^(A)take up his cross and follow Me. ³⁵ For ^(B)whoever wishes to save his ^[a]life will lose it, but whoever loses his ^[b]life for My sake and the gospel’s will save it. ³⁶ For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul? ³⁷ For what will a man give in exchange for his soul? ³⁸ For ^(C)whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, ^(D)the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He ^(E)comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”
