37 He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me.

38 And he who does not take his cross and come after me is not good enough for me.

39 He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.

37 Celui qui aime son père ou sa mère plus que moi, n'est pas digne de moi; et celui qui aime son fils ou sa fille plus que moi, n'est pas digne de moi;

38 Et celui qui ne prend pas sa croix, et ne me suit pas, n'est pas digne de moi.

39 Celui qui estime sa vie, la perdra; mais celui qui abandonnera sa vie en ma faveur, la retrouvera.
