It is enough for the disciple to become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house ‘Beelzebul,’ how much more will they defame the members of his household!p>

&#8220;Woe to you, Chorazin!<n id="1" /> Woe to you, Bethsaida! If<n id="2" /> the miracles<n id="3" /> done in you had been done in Tyre<n id="4" /> and Sidon,<n id="5" /> they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.

And you, Capernaum,<n id="1" /> will you be exalted to heaven?<n id="2" /> No, you will be thrown down to Hades!<n id="3" /> For if the miracles done among you had been done in Sodom, it would have continued to this day.

how he entered the house of God and they ate<n id="1" /> the sacred bread,<n id="2" /> which was against the law<n id="3" /> for him or his companions to eat, but only for the priests?<n id="4" />

But he answered them,<n id="1" /> &#8220;An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

And Jesus answered him,<n id="1" /> &#8220;You are blessed, Simon son of Jonah, because flesh and blood<n id="2" /> did not reveal this to you, but my Father in heaven!

And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades<n id="1" /> will not overpower it.

But he turned and said to Peter, &#8220;Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, because you are not setting your mind on God&#8217;s interests, but on man&#8217;s.&#8221;<n id="1" />

Then Jesus said to his disciples, &#8220;If anyone wants to become my follower,<n id="1" /> he must deny<n id="2" /> himself, take up his cross,<n id="3" /> and follow me.

So<n id="1" /> Peter said<n id="2" /> to Jesus, &#8220;Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you want, I will make<n id="3" /> three shelters<n id="4" /> &#8211; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.&#8221;

And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than to have<n id="1" /> two eyes and be thrown into fiery hell.<n id="2" />p>

After<n id="1" /> he went out, that same slave found one of his fellow slaves who owed him one hundred silver coins.<n id="2" /> So<n id="3" /> he grabbed him by the throat and started to choke him,<n id="4" /> saying, &#8216;Pay back what you owe me!&#8217;<n id="5" />

He said to him, &#8220;Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.&#8221;

Jesus said to him, &#8220;If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money<n id="1" /> to the poor, and you will have treasure<n id="2" /> in heaven. Then come, follow me.&#8221;

But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief<n id="1" /> was coming, he would have been alert and would not have let his house be broken into.

Then the one who had received the one talent came and said, &#8216;Sir, I knew that you were a hard man, harvesting where you did not sow, and gathering where you did not scatter seed,

The Son of Man will go as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for him if he had never been born.&#8221;

Going a little farther, he threw himself down with his face to the ground and prayed,<n id="1" /> &#8220;My Father, if possible,<n id="2" /> let this cup<n id="3" /> pass from me! Yet not what I will, but what you will.&#8221;

He went away a second time and prayed,<n id="1" /> &#8220;My Father, if this cup<n id="2" /> cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done.&#8221;

After<n id="1" /> a little while, those standing there came up to Peter and said, &#8220;You really are one of them too &#8211; even your accent<n id="2" /> gives you away!&#8221;
