Mark 8:34-38

Tree of Life Version

³⁴ Then He called the crowd, along with His disciples, and said to them, “If anyone wants to follow after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and keep following Me. ³⁵ For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and the sake of the Good News will save it. ³⁶ For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? ³⁷ For what could a man give in exchange for his soul? ³⁸ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this unfaithful and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels!”
