Matthew 10:38

³⁴He called the multitude to himself with his disciples and said to them, “Whoever wants to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

²⁷Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross and come after me, can’t be my disciple.

²⁴Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

²³He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross,^[+] and follow me. ²⁴For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake will save it.

¹⁷He went out, bearing his cross, to the place called “The Place of a Skull”, which is called in Hebrew, “Golgotha”,

²¹Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.”

³²As they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they compelled him to go with them, that he might carry his cross.
