Priljubljene svetopisemske vrstice iz Markos 8

Deli

For whoever wishes to save his nefesh will lose it; but whoever loses his nefesh for my sake and for the sake of the Besuras HaGeulah will save it.

For how is the ben Adam (human being) benefited if he gain the kol haOlam, and forfeit his neshamah?

And having summoned the multitude along with his talmidim, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, If anyone wishes to follow after me, let him make denial of himself, and take up his etz shel mesiros nefesh (tree of self-sacrifice), and follow me.

For what shall a ben Adam give in exchange [for] his neshamah? For whoever feels bushah (shame) regarding me and my devarim in this dor rah umnaef (evil and adulterous generation), the Bar Enosh will also be ashamed of him, when Moshiach comes in the kavod of his Av with the malachim hakedoshim.

And he continued questioning them, But who do you say that I am? In reply, Kefa says to him, You are the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
