Mark 8:29-38

29 And He continued by questioning them, "But who do you say that I am?" ¹Peter answered and said to Him, "You are the Christ."

30 And ²He warned them to tell no one about Him.

31 ³And He began to teach them that ⁴the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

32 And He was stating the matter ⁵plainly. And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.

33 But turning around and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind Me, ⁶Satan; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's."

34 And He summoned the crowd with His disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and ⁷take up his cross and follow Me.

35 "For ⁸whoever * wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever * loses his life for My sake and the gospel's will save it.

36 "For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?

37 "For what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

38 "For ⁹whoever * is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, ¹⁰the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He ¹¹comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."
