Mark 8:36 in Context — Mark 8
34 Puis, ayant appelé la foule avec ses disciples, il leur dit: Si quelqu’un veut venir après moi, qu’il renonce à lui-même, qu’il se charge de sa croix, et qu’il me suive.
35 Car celui qui voudra sauver sa vie la perdra, mais celui qui perdra sa vie à cause de moi et de la bonne nouvelle la sauvera.
36 Et que sert-il à un homme de gagner tout le monde, s’il perd son âme?
37 Que donnerait un hommeen échange de son âme?
38 Car quiconque aura honte de moi et de mes paroles au milieu de cette génération adultère et pécheresse, le Fils de l’homme aura aussi honte de lui, quand il viendra dans la gloire de son Père, avec les saints anges.
