37 El que ama padre ó madre más que á mí, no es digno de mí; y el que ama hijo ó hija más que á mí, no es digno de mí.

38 Y el que no toma su cruz, y sigue en pos de mí, no es digno de mí.

39 El que hallare su vida, la perderá; y el que perdiere su vida por causa de mí, la hallará.

37 He who is loving father or mother above me, is not worthy of me, and he who is loving son or daughter above me, is not worthy of me,

38 and whoever doth not receive his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me.

39 He who found his life shall lose it, and he who lost his life for my sake shall find it.
