Some people were talking about the Temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts offered to God. But Jesus said,

Jesus said, "Be careful so you are not fooled. Many people will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the One' and, ‘The time has come!' But don't follow them.

When you hear about wars and riots, don't be afraid, because these things must happen first, but the end will come later."

"But before all these things happen, people will arrest you and treat you cruelly. They will judge you in their synagogues and put you in jail and force you to stand before kings and governors, because you follow me.

But this will give you an opportunity to tell about me.

But none of these things can really harm you.

Earth and sky will be destroyed, but the words I have spoken will never be destroyed.

"But one of you will turn against me, and his hand is with mine on the table.

What God has planned for the Son of Man will happen, but how terrible it will be for that one who turns against the Son of Man."

But Jesus said to them, "The kings of the non-Jewish people rule over them, and those who have authority over others like to be called ‘friends of the people.'

But you must not be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the leader should be like the servant.

Who is more important: the one sitting at the table or the one serving? You think the one at the table is more important, but I am like a servant among you.

But Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and even to die with you!"

But Jesus said, "Peter, before the rooster crows this day, you will say three times that you don't know me."

He said to them, "But now if you have a purse or a bag, carry that with you. If you don't have a sword, sell your coat and buy one.

"Father, if you are willing, take away this cup of suffering. But do what you want, not what I want."

But Jesus said to him, "Judas, are you using the kiss to give the Son of Man to his enemies?"

I was with you every day in the Temple, and you didn't arrest me there. But this is your time—the time when darkness rules."

But Peter said this was not true; he said, "Woman, I don't know him."

A short time later, another person saw Peter and said, "You are also one of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!"
