Luke 9:17-27

The Bible in Basic English BBE

17 And they all took the food and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits which were over, twelve baskets full.

18 And it came about that when he was in prayer, by himself, and the disciples were with him, he put a question to them, saying, Who do the people say I am?

19 And they, answering, said, John the Baptist; but others say Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets has come back.

20 And he said, But who do you say that I am? And Peter, answering, said, The Christ of God.

21 But he gave them special orders, not to say this to any man;

22 Saying, The Son of man will undergo much and be put on one side by the rulers and the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and be put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

23 And he said to them all, If any man has a desire to come after me, let him give up all, and take up his cross every day, and come after me.

24 For whoever has a desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, but whoever gives up his life because of me, will keep it.

25 For what profit will a man have if he gets all the world, but undergoes loss or destruction himself?

26 For if any man has a feeling of shame because of me or of my words, the Son of man will have shame because of him when he comes in his glory and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

27 But truly I say to you, Some of those who are here now will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.

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.”
