30. Jesus warned the disciples not to tell anyone about him.
31. Jesus began telling his disciples what would happen to him. He said, “The nation's leaders, the chief priests, and the teachers of the Law of Moses will make the Son of Man suffer terribly. He will be rejected and killed, but three days later he will rise to life.”
32. Then Jesus explained clearly what he meant.Peter took Jesus aside and told him to stop talking like that.
33. But when Jesus turned and saw the disciples, he corrected Peter. He said to him, “Satan, get away from me! You are thinking like everyone else and not like God.”
34. Jesus then told the crowd and the disciples to come closer, and he said:If any of you want to be my followers, you must forget about yourself. You must take up your cross and follow me.
