³¹Thenⁱ he began to teach them that it was necessary for the Son of Man^j to suffer many things and be rejected^k by the elders,^l chief priests, and scribes,^m be killed, and riseⁿ after three days.^o ³²He spoke openly about this. Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. ³³But turning around and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan!^p You are not thinking about God’s concerns^A but human concerns.”

TAKE UP YOUR CROSS

³⁴Calling the crowd along with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone wants to follow after me, let him deny himself,^q take up his cross,^r and follow me.^s ³⁵For whoever wants to save^t his life will lose it,^u but whoever loses^v his life^w because of me^x and the gospel^y will save it.^z ³⁶For what does it benefit^aa someone to gain^ab the whole world^ac and yet lose^ad his life?^ae ³⁷What can anyone give in exchange for his life?^af ³⁸For whoever is ashamed^ag of me and my words^ah in this adulterous and sinful^ai generation,^aj the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when he comes in the glory^ak of his Father^al with the holy^am angels.”^an

9Then he said to them, “Truly I tell you,^ao there are some standing here who will not taste death^ap until they see the kingdom of God come in power.”^aq
