Luke 9:57-62
Chapter 9
57
As Jesus and his disciples continued their journey, a man said to Jesus:
“I will follow you wherever you go.”
58
Jesus responded:
“Foxes have dens and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to rest his head.”
59
To another, Jesus said:
“Follow me!”
But he replied:
“Let me go back now, because I want to bury my father first.”
60
And Jesus said to him:
“Let the dead bury their own dead; as for you, leave them behind and proclaim the kingdom of God.”
61
Another said to him:
“I will follow you, Lord, but first let me say goodbye to my family.”
62
And Jesus said to him:
“Whoever has put his hand to the plow and looks back is not fit for the kingdom of God.”
