THE PRECEPTS OF JESUS

19.

and chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and be raised
again the third day. Then Peter took him, and began to
rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord : this shall
not be unto thee. But he turned, and said unto Peterv
Get thee behind me, Satan : thou art an offence unto
me, for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but
those that be of men. Then said Jesus unto his discip-
les, If any men will come after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his cross, and follow me : for whosoever will
save his life shall lose it : and whosoever will lose his
life for my sake, shall find it. For what is a man profited,
if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul ?
or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul ? For
the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father
with his angels ; and then he shall reward every man
according to his works. Verily I say unto you, There
be some standing here, which shall not taste of death,,
till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

* At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus
saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven ?
And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in
the midst of them, and said, Verily I say unto you'
Except ye be converted, and become as little children
ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. Whoso-
ever therefore shall humble himself as this little child,
the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And wlfo->
so shall receive one such little child in my name, receive-
th me. But whoso shall offend one of these little ones
which believe in me, it were better for him that a mill-
stone were hanged about his neck, and that he were
drowned in the depth of the sea.

* Matthew, chap, xviii. ,
