* And he said (5707 ) to them all , If any man will (5719 ) come (5629 ) after me , let him deny (5663 ) himself , and take up (5657 ) his cross daily , and follow (5720 ) me . * For whosoever will (5725 ) save (5658 ) his life shall lose (5692 ) it : but whosoever will lose (5661 ) his life for my sake , the same shall save (5692 ) it . * For what is a man advantaged (5743 ), if he gain (5660 ) the whole world , and lose (5660 ) himself , or be cast away (5685 )? * For whosoever shall be ashamed (5680 ) of me and of my words , of him shall the Son of man be ashamed (5700 ), when he shall come (5632 ) in his own glory , and in his Fathers , and of the holy angels . * But I tell (5719 ) you of a truth , there be (5748 ) some standing (5761 ) here , which shall not taste (5695 ) of death , till they see (5632 ) the kingdom of God . * And it came to pass (5633 ) about an eight days after these sayings , he took (5631 ) Peter and John and James , and went up (5627 ) into a mountain to pray (5664 ). * And as he prayed (5738 ), the fashion of his countenance was (5633 ) altered , and his raiment was white and glistering (5723 ). * And , behold (5628 ), there talked (5707 ) with him two men , which were (5713 ) Moses and Elias : * Who appeared (5685 ) in glory , and spake (5707 ) of his decease which he should (5707 ) accomplish (5721 ) at Jerusalem . * But Peter and they that were with him were (5713 ) heavy (5772 ) with sleep : and when they were awake (5660 ), they saw (5627 ) his glory , and the two men that stood with (5761 ) him . * And it came to pass (5633 ), as they departed (5738 ) from him , Peter said (5627 ) unto Jesus , Master , it is (5748 ) good for us to be (5750 ) here : and let us make (5661 ) three tabernacles ; one for thee , and one for Moses , and one for Elias : not knowing (5761 ) what he said (5719 ). * While he thus spake (5723 ), there came (5633 ) a cloud , and overshadowed (5656 ) them : and they feared (5675 ) as they entered (5629 ) into the cloud . * And there came (5633 ) a voice out of the cloud , saying (5723 ), This is (5748 ) my beloved Son : hear (5720 ) him . * And when the voice was past (5635 ), Jesus was found (5681 ) alone . And they kept it close (5656 ), and told (5656 ) no man in those days any of those things which they had seen (5758 ). * And it came to pass (5633 ), that on the next day , when they were come down (5631 ) from the hill , much people met (5656 ) him . * And , behold (5628 ), a man of the company cried out (5656 ), saying (5723 ), Master , I beseech (5736 ) thee , look (5657 ) upon my son : for he is (5748 ) mine only child . * And , lo (5628 ), a spirit taketh (5719 ) him , and he suddenly crieth out (5719 ); and it teareth (5719 ) him that he foameth again , and bruising (5723 ) him hardly departeth (5719 ) from him . * And I besought (5681 ) thy disciples to cast him out (5725 ); and they could (5675 ) not . * And Jesus answering (5679 ) said (5627 ), O faithless and perverse (5772 ) generation , how long shall I be (5704 ) with you , and suffer (5695 ) you ? Bring (5628 ) thy son hither . * And as he was yet a coming (5740 ), the devil threw him down (5656 ), and tare (5656 ) him . And Jesus rebuked (5656 ) the unclean spirit , and healed (5662 ) the child , and delivered him again (5656 ) to his father . * And they were all amazed (5712 ) at the mighty power of God . But while they wondered (5723 ) every one at all things which Jesus did (5656 ), he said (5627 ) unto his disciples , * Let these sayings sink down (5640 ) into your ears : for the Son of man shall be (5719 ) delivered (5745 ) into the hands of men . * But they understood not (5707 ) this saying , and it was (5713 ) hid (5772 ) from them , that they perceived (5638 ) it not : and they feared (5711 ) to ask (5658 ) him of that saying . * Then there arose (5627 ) a reasoning among them , which of them should be (5751 ) greatest . * And Jesus , perceiving (5631 ) the thought of their heart , took (5637 ) a child , and set (5656 ) him by him , * And said (5627 ) unto them , Whosoever shall receive (5667 ) this child in my name receiveth (5736 ) me : and whosoever shall receive (5667 ) me receiveth him (5736 ) that sent (5660 ) me : for he that is (5723 ) least among you all , the same shall be (5704 ) great . * And John answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ), Master , we saw (5627 ) one casting out (5723 ) devils in thy name ; and we forbad (5656 ) him , because he followeth (5719 ) not with us . * And Jesus said (5627 ) unto him , Forbid (5720 ) him not : for he that is (5748 ) not against us is (5748 ) for us . * And it came to pass (5633 ), when the time was come (5745 ) that he should be received up , he stedfastly set (5656 ) his face to go (5738 ) to Jerusalem , * And sent (5656 ) messengers before his face : and they went (5679 ), and entered (5627 ) into a village of the Samaritans , to make ready (5658 ) for him . * And they did not receive (5662 ) him , because his face was (5713 ) as though he would go (5740 ) to Jerusalem . * And when his disciples James and John saw (5631 ) this , they said (5627 ), Lord , wilt thou (5719 ) that we command (5632 ) fire to come down (5629 ) from heaven , and consume (5658 ) them , even as Elias did (5656 )? * But he turned (5651 ), and rebuked (5656 ) them , and said (5627 ), Ye know (5758 ) not what manner of spirit ye are of (5748 ). * For the Son of man is not come (5627 ) to destroy (5658 ) mens lives , but to save (5658 ) them . And they went (5675 ) to another village . * And it came to pass (5633 ), that , as they went (5740 ) in the way , a certain man said (5627 ) unto him , Lord , I will follow (5692 ) thee whithersoever thou goest (5741 ).
