Riverside⁽ⁱ⁾ ³⁴ Then he called the crowd along with his disciples and said to them, "If any one wishes to come after me, let him disown himself and take up his cross and follow me. ³⁵ Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for my sake and the sake of the good news will save it. ³⁶ What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul? ³⁷ For what could a man give to buy back his soul? ³⁸ Whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with his holy angels."
