37 Wie vader of moeder bo My liefhet, is My nie waardig nie; en wie seun of dogter bo My liefhet, is My nie waardig nie.

38 En wie sy kruis nie neem en agter My volg nie, is My nie waardig nie.

39 Wie sy lewe vind, sal dit verloor; en wie sy lewe verloor om My ontwil, sal dit vind.

37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 And he that doth not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me. 39 He that findeth his life shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
