Luke 9:18-28

Weymouth New Testament WNT

18 One day when He was praying by Himself the disciples were present; and He asked them, "Who do the people say that I am?"

19 "John the Baptist," they replied; "but others say Elijah; and others that some one of the ancient Prophets has come back to life."

20 "But you," He asked, "who do you say that I am?" "God's Anointed One," replied Peter.

21 And Jesus strictly forbad them to tell this to any one;

22 and He said, "The Son of Man must suffer much cruelty, be rejected by the Elders and High Priests and Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again."

23 And He said to all, "If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross day by day, and so be my follower.

24 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall save it.

25 Why, what benefit is it to a man to have gained the whole world, but to have lost or forfeited his own self.

26 For whoever shall have been ashamed of me and my teachings, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own and the Father's glory and in that of the holy angels.

27 I tell you truly that there are some of those who stand here who will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Kingdom of God."

28 It was about eight days after this that Jesus, taking with Him Peter, John, and James, went up the mountain to pray.

New International Version NIV

18 Once when Jesus was praying in private and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”

19 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, that one of the prophets of long ago has come back to life.”

20 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”Peter answered, “God’s Messiah.”

21 Jesus strictly warned them not to tell this to anyone.

22 And he said, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and he must be killed and on the third day be raised to life.”

23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.

24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.

25 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?

26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

27 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God.”

28 About eight days after Jesus said this, he took Peter, John and James with him and went up onto a mountain to pray.
