Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καθ’ ἡμέραν
˱him˲_/let/_take_up the cross ˱of˲_him in_every day
The image is of a condemned prisoner being forced to carry the cross on which he would be crucified to the place where he would be executed.

Alternate translation: [he must be willing every day to suffer and die for my sake]

ἀράτω τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καθ’ ἡμέραν
˱him˲_/let/_take_up the cross ˱of˲_him in_every day
To take up a cross represents being willing to suffer and die. Alternate translation: [he must be willing every day to suffer and die for my sake]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
καὶ ἀκολουθείτω μοι
and and ˱him˲_/let_be/_following ˱after˲_me
Here, to follow Jesus means to obey him. Alternate translation: [and obey me in that way]
9:23 take up your cross daily: This did not simply mean carrying a heavy burden, but suffering a violent death by crucifixion. Believers must be completely willing to die to themselves and to live for God, even at the cost of their lives.
