Luke 9:14-28 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

14. For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples,

15. And they did so, and made them all sit down.

16. Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude.

17. And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.

18. And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples were with him: and he asked them, saying,

19. They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

20. He said unto them,

21. And he sternly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing;

22. Saying,

23. And he said to them all,

24. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

25. For what is a man profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or suffer loss?

26. For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels.

27. But I tell you a truth, there be some standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

28. And it came to pass about eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.
