^{36 Ref} for what shall it profit a man, if he may gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?

^{37 Ref} Or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?

^{38 Ref} for whoever may be ashamed of me, and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man also shall be ashamed of him, when he may come in the glory of his Father, with the holy messengers.'
