²¹From that time Jesus began to shew to his disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the ancients and scribes and chief priests, and be put to death, and the third day rise again.

²²And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him, saying: Lord, be it far from thee, this shall not be unto thee.

²³Who turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.

²⁴Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

²⁵For he that will save his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it.

²⁶For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?

²⁷For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works.

²⁸Amen I say to you, there are some of them that stand here, that shall not taste death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

Matthew 16:26: For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?
