Matthew 16:21-28
Holman Christian Standard Bible
His Death and Resurrection Predicted
21 From(A) then on Jesus began to point out to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, be killed, and be raised the third day.(B) 22 Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, “Oh no,[a] Lord! This will never happen to You!”
23 But He turned and told Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me because you’re not thinking about God’s concerns,[b] but man’s.”(C)
Take Up Your Cross
24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come with Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me.(D) 25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of Me will find it.(E) 26 What will it benefit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?(F) 27 For the Son of Man is going to come with His angels in the glory of His Father,(G) and then He will reward each according to what he has done. 28 I assure you: There are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”(H)

His Death and Resurrection Predicted
21 But He strictly warned and instructed them to tell this to no one,(A) 22 saying,(B) “The Son of Man(C) must suffer many things(D) and be rejected(E) by the elders, chief priests, and scribes,(F) be killed, and be raised the third day.”(G)
Take Up Your Cross
23 Then He said to them all, “If anyone wants to come with[a] Me, he must deny himself,(H) take up his cross daily,[b] and follow Me.(I) 24 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of Me will save it.(J) 25 What is a man benefited if he gains the whole world, yet loses or forfeits himself?(K) 26 For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words,(L) the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory(M) and that of the Father and the holy angels.(N) 27 I tell you the truth: There are some standing here who will not taste death(O) until they see the kingdom of God.”(P)
