New Matthew Bible
23 Then Jesus turned about and said to Peter, Get behind me, Satan! You offend me, because you savour not the things of God, but things of the world.
24 Jesus then said to his disciples, If any person would follow me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whosoever would save his life, will lose it. And whosoever loses his life for my sake, will find it.
