They said to him, "Send the crowd to the closest villages and farms so that they can find some food and a place to stay. No one lives around here."12 The day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said to him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place."12 But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and into the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.

But those who lose their lives for me will save them.24 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.24 for whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, he shall save it.
25 "For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits himself?25 For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away?25 What good does it do for people to win the whole world but lose their lives by destroying them?25 For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?25 For what shall a man profit if he shall have gained the whole world, and have destroyed, or come under the penalty of the loss of himself?

26 "For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory, and the glory of the Father and of the holy angels.26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.26 If people are ashamed of me and what I say, the Son of Man will be ashamed of those people when he comes in the glory that he shares with the Father and the holy angels.26 For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.26 For whosoever shall have been ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his glory, and in that of the Father, and of the holy angels.
27 "But I say to you truthfully, there are some of those standing here who will not taste death until they see the kingdom of God."27 But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.27 "I can guarantee this truth: Some people who are standing here will not die until they see the kingdom of God."27 But I tell you the truth: There are some of those who stand here, who will in no way taste of death, until they see the Kingdom of God."27 But I say unto you of a truth, There are some of those standing here who shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God.

Whoever isn't against you is for you."50 Jesus said to him, "Don't forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us."50 And Jesus said to him, Forbid him not, for he that is not against you is for you.

They asked, "Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to burn them up?"54 When his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, "Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and destroy them, just as Elijah did?"54 And his disciples James and John seeing it said, Lord, wilt thou that we speak that fire come down from heaven and consume them, as also Elias did?
