16 21 From that time Jesus began to make it clear to his disciples that he had to go to Jerusalem, and there to suffer much from the elders, chief priests, and lawyers; to be put to death and to be raised again on the third day. 16 22 At this Peter took him by the arm and began to rebuke him: 'Heaven forbid!' he said. 'No, Lord, this shall never happen to you.' 16 23 Then Jesus turned and said to Peter, 'Away with you, Satan; you are a stumbling-block to me. You think as men think, not as God thinks.'
16 24 Jesus then said to his disciples, 'If anyone wishes to be a follower of mine, he must leave self behind; he must take up his cross and come with me. 16 25 Whoever cares for his own safety is lost; but if a man will let himself be lost for my sake, he will find his true self. 16 26 What will a man gain by winning the whole world, at the cost of his true self? Or what can he give that will buy that self back? 16 27 For the Son of Man is to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will give each man the due reward for what he has done. 16 28 I tell you this: there are some standing here who will not taste death before they have seen the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.'
