Psalm 22:23-31

English Standard Version

²³You who ^(A)fear the Lord, praise him!
    All you offspring of Jacob, ^(B)glorify him,
    and stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
²⁴For he has not despised or abhorred
    the affliction of ^(C)the afflicted,
and he has not ^(D)hidden his face from him,
    but has heard, when he ^(E)cried to him.

²⁵From you comes my praise in the great ^(F)congregation;
    my ^(G)vows I will ^(H)perform before those who fear him.
²⁶^(I)The afflicted^[a] shall ^(J)eat and be satisfied;
    those who seek him shall praise the Lord!
    May your hearts ^(K)live forever!

²⁷All ^(L)the ends of the earth shall remember
    and turn to the Lord,
and all ^(M)the families of the nations
    shall worship before you.
²⁸For ^(N)kingship belongs to the Lord,
    and he rules over the nations.

²⁹All ^(O)the prosperous of the earth eat and worship;
    before him shall ^(P)bow all who go down to the dust,
    even the one who could not ^(Q)keep himself alive.
³⁰Posterity shall serve him;
    it shall be told of the Lord to the coming ^(R)generation;
³¹they shall ^(S)come and proclaim his righteousness to a people yet ^(T)unborn,
    that he has done it.

Mark 8:31-38

English Standard Version

Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection

³¹^(A)And he began to teach them that ^(B)the Son of Man must ^(C)suffer many things and ^(D)be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and ^(E)after three days rise again. ³²And he said this ^(F)plainly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. ³³But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, ^(G)“Get behind me, Satan! For you ^(H)are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.”

³⁴And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let him ^(I)deny himself and ^(J)take up his cross and follow me. ³⁵For ^(K)whoever would save his life^[a] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake ^(L)and the gospel's will save it. ³⁶^(M)For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? ³⁷For ^(N)what can a man give in return for his soul? ³⁸For ^(O)whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this ^(P)adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed ^(Q)when he comes in the glory of his Father with ^(R)the holy angels.”
