Matthew 16:21-28

211From that timeG5119 2JesusG2424 beganG757 to showG1166 His disciplesG3101 that He mustG1163 goG565 to JerusalemG2414, and 3sufferG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 from the eldersG4245 and chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and be killedG615, and be raisedG1453 up on the thirdG5154 dayG2250. 22PeterG4074 tookG4355 Him asideG4355 and beganG757 to rebukeG2008 Him, sayingG3004, “4GodG2436 forbidG2436 it, LordG2962! ThisG3778 shall neverG3756G3361 5happenG1510 to You.” 23But He turnedG4762 and saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “GetG5217 behindG3694 Me, 6SatanG4567! You are a stumblingG4625 blockG4625 to Me; for you are not settingG5426 your mindG5426 on 7God’sG2316 interests, but man’sG444.”

24ThenG5119 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wishesG2309 to comeG2064 afterG3694 Me, he must denyG533 himselfG1438, and 8takeG142 up his crossG4716 and followG190 Me. 25For 9whoeverG3739G1437 wishesG2309 to saveG4982 his 10lifeG5590 will loseG622 it; but whoeverG3739G302 losesG622 his 11lifeG5590 for My sakeG1752 will findG2147 it. 26For whatG5101 will it profitG5623 a manG444 ifG1437 he gainsG2770 the wholeG3650 worldG2889 and forfeitsG2210 his soulG5590? OrG2228 whatG5101 will a manG444 giveG1325 in exchangeG465 for his soulG5590? 27For the 12SonG5207 of ManG444 13is goingG3195 to comeG2064 in the gloryG1391 of His FatherG3962 with His angelsG32, and 14will thenG5119 15repayG591 everyG1538 manG1538 accordingG2596 to his 16deedsG4234.

28“TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, there are someG5100 of thoseG3588 who are standingG2476 hereG5602 whoG3748 will not tasteG1089 deathG2288 untilG2193 they seeG3708 the 17SonG5207 of ManG444 18comingG2064 in His kingdomG932.”
