Luke 9:18-29

181And it happenedG1096 that whileG1722 He was 2prayingG4336 aloneG3441, the disciplesG3101 were with Him, and He questionedG1905 them, sayingG3004, “WhoG5101 do the 3peopleG3793 sayG3004 that I amG1510?” 19They answeredG611 and saidG3004, “JohnG2491 the BaptistG910, and othersG243 say ElijahG2243; but othersG243, that oneG5100 of the prophetsG4396 of oldG744 has risenG450 againG450.” 20And He saidG3004 to them, “But whoG5101 do you sayG3004 that I amG1510?” And PeterG4074 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “4The 5ChristG5547 of GodG2316.” 21But He 67warnedG2008 them and instructedG3853 them not to tellG3004 thisG3778 to anyoneG3367, 228sayingG3004, “9The SonG5207 of ManG444 mustG1163 sufferG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 and be rejectedG593 by the eldersG4245 and chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and be killedG615 and be raisedG1453 up on the thirdG5154 dayG2250.”

23And He was sayingG3004 to them allG3956, “10IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wishesG2309 to comeG2064 afterG3694 Me, he must denyG720 himselfG1438, and takeG142 up his crossG4716 dailyG2596G2250 and followG190 Me. 24For 11whoeverG3739G1437 wishesG2309 to saveG4982 his 12lifeG5590 will loseG622 it, but whoeverG3739G302 losesG622 his 13lifeG5590 for My sakeG1752, he is the one who will saveG4982 it. 25For whatG5101 is a manG444 profitedG5623 if he gainsG2770 the wholeG3650 worldG2889, and 14losesG622 orG2228 forfeitsG2210 himselfG1438? 2615For whoeverG3739G302 is ashamedG1870 of Me and My wordsG3056, the SonG5207 of ManG444 will be ashamedG1870 of him whenG3752 He comesG2064 in His gloryG1391, and the glory of the FatherG3962 and of the holyG40 angelsG32. 27But I sayG3004 to you truthfullyG230, 16there are someG5100 of thoseG3588 standingG2476 hereG847 whoG3739 will not tasteG1089 deathG2288 untilG2193 they seeG3708 the kingdomG932 of GodG2316.”

2817SomeG5616 eightG3638 daysG2250 afterG3326 theseG3778 sayingsG3056, He tookG3880 alongG3880 18PeterG4074 and JohnG2491 and JamesG2385, and 19wentG305 up on the mountainG3735 20to prayG4336. 29And whileG1722 He was 21prayingG4336, the appearanceG1491 of His faceG4383 22becameG1096 differentG2087, and His clothingG2441 became whiteG3022 and 23gleamingG1823.
