His Death and Resurrection Predicted

31 Then(A) He began to teach them that the Son of Man(B) must suffer many things and be rejected(C) by the elders,(D) the chief priests, and the scribes,(E) be killed, and rise(F) after three days.(G) 32 He was openly talking about this. So Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.

33 But turning around and looking at His disciples, He rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan,(H) because you’re not thinking about God’s concerns,[a] but man’s!”

Take Up Your Cross

34 Summoning the crowd along with His disciples, He said to them, “If anyone wants to be My follower, he must deny himself,(I) take up his cross,(J) and follow Me.(K) 35 For whoever wants to save(L) his life will lose it,(M) but whoever loses(N) his life(O) because of Me(P) and the gospel(Q) will save it.(R) 36 For what does it benefit(S) a man to gain(T) the whole world(U) yet lose(V) his life?(W) 37 What can a man give in exchange for his life?(X) 38 For whoever is ashamed(Y) of Me and of My words(Z) in this adulterous and sinful(AA) generation,(AB) the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory(AC) of His Father(AD) with the holy(AE) angels.”(AF)

Then He said to them, “I assure you:(AG) There are some standing here who will not taste death(AH) until they see the kingdom of God come in power.”(AI)
