Matthew 8:18-22
New Living Translation
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he instructed his disciples to cross to the other side of the lake.
19 Then one of the teachers of religious law said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”
20 But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man[a] has no place even to lay his head.”
21 Another of his disciples said, “Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me now. Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead.[b]”

Lo que cuesta seguir a Jesús
18 Cuando Jesús vio a la multitud que lo rodeaba, dio instrucciones a sus discípulos de que cruzaran al otro lado del lago.
19 Entonces uno de los maestros de la ley religiosa le dijo:
—Maestro, te seguiré adondequiera que vayas.
20 Jesús le respondió:
—Los zorros tienen cuevas donde vivir y los pájaros tienen nidos, pero el Hijo del Hombre[a] no tiene ni siquiera un lugar donde recostar la cabeza.
21 Otro de sus discípulos dijo:
—Señor, deja que primero regrese a casa y entierre a mi padre.
22 Jesús le dijo:
—Sígueme ahora. Deja que los muertos espirituales entierren a sus propios muertos.[b]
