Luke 9:18-27

Common English Bible CEB

18 Once when Jesus was praying by himself, the disciples joined him, and he asked them, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

19 They answered, "John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others that one of the ancient prophets has come back to life."

20 He asked them, "And what about you? Who do you say that I am?" Peter answered, "The Christ sent from God."

21 Jesus gave them strict orders not to tell this to anyone.

22 He said, "The Human One must suffer many things and be rejected—by the elders, chief priests, and the legal experts—and be killed and be raised on the third day."

23 Jesus said to everyone, "All who want to come after me must say no to themselves, take up their cross daily, and follow me.

24 All who want to save their lives will lose them. But all who lose their lives because of me will save them.

25 What advantage do people have if they gain the whole world for themselves yet perish or lose their lives?

26 Whoever is ashamed of me and my words, the Human One will be ashamed of that person when he comes in his glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.

27 I assure you that some standing here won't die before they see God's kingdom."

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.”
