Luke 14:26-28

Christian Standard Bible

²⁶ “If anyone comes to me^(A) and does not hate^(B) his own father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters—yes, and even his own life—he cannot be my disciple. ²⁷ Whoever does not bear his own cross^(C) and come after me cannot be my disciple.

²⁸ “For which of you, wanting to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and calculate the cost^(D) to see if he has enough to complete it?
