Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.” | He then called the people and his disciples to him and said to them, “Anyone who wishes to follow me must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.” |
For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. | For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the sake of the gospel will save it. |
What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? | What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his very life? |
Bible verse of the day
