Luke 9:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

²⁴ For whosoever will save his life, shall lose it; for he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall save it.

²⁵ For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, and cast away himself?
