37He who has more love for his father or mother than for me is not good enough for me; he who has more love for son or daughter than for me is not good enough for me.
38And he who does not take his cross and come after me is not good enough for me.
39He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.
40He who gives honour to you gives honour to me; and he who gives honour to me gives honour to him who sent me.
41He who gives honour to a prophet, in the name of a prophet, will be given a prophet's reward; and he who gives honour to an upright man, in the name of an upright man, will be given an upright man's reward.
42And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward.
