Mark 8:34-36
1599 Geneva Bible
34 ¶ [a]And he called the people unto him with his disciples, and said unto them, (A)Whosoever will follow me, let him forsake himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
35 For whosoever will (B)save his life, shall lose it: but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the Gospel’s, he shall save it.
36 [b]For what shall it profit a man, though he should win the whole world, if he lose his soul?

New International Version
The Way of the Cross
34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.(A) 35 For whoever wants to save their life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.(B) 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?
