Luke 9:23-27

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

²⁴ For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; for he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.

²⁵ For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, and cast away himself?

²⁶ For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty, and that of his Father, and of the holy angels.

²⁷ But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death, till they see the kingdom of God.
