Luke 9:57-62 ▼

57 While they were walking along the road, a man told him, |I will follow you wherever you go.|

58 Jesus told him, |Foxes have holes and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to rest.|

59 He told another man, |Follow me.| But he said, |Lord, first let me go and bury my father.|

60 But he told him, |Let the dead bury their own dead. But you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.|

61 Still another man said, |I will follow you, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to those at home.|

62 Jesus told him, |No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.|
