30 And he said unto them, but whom say ye that I am?
31 And Peter answered and said unto him, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
32 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
33 And he began to teach them, that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders, and the chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.
34 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.
35 But when he had turned about and looked upon his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan; for thou savorest not the things that be of God, but the things that be of man.
36 And when he had called the people, with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
37 For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; or whosoever will save his life, shall be willing to lay it down for my sake; and if he is not willing to lay it down for my sake, he shall lose it.
38 But whosoever shall be willing to lose his life for my sake, and the gospel, the same shall save it.
39 For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
40 Therefore deny yourselves of these, and be not ashamed of me.
