Day 21 of 40

8:31 He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

8:32 He spoke to them openly. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.

8:33 But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men."

8:34 He called the multitude to himself with his disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

8:35 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it; and whoever will lose his life for my sake and the sake of the Good News will save it.

8:36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?

8:37 Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

8:38 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

9:1 He said to them, "Truly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste death until they see the Kingdom of God come with power."

9 Pray like this: 'Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.

10 Let your Kingdom come. Let your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

11 Give us today our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.

13 Let us not come into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. [For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.]'
