Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

ὅστις οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μου, οὐ δύναται εἶναί μου μαθητής
whoever not /is/_bearing the cross ˱of˲_him and /is/_coming after me not /is/_able to_be ˱of˲_me /a/_disciple

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ
not /is/_bearing the cross ˱of˲_him
Jesus assumes that the crowds will know that the Romans executed some criminals by nailing them to a wooden beam with crossbar that was set upright so that the criminals would slowly suffocate. Jesus assumes that the crowds will also know that the Romans made these criminals carry these wooden crosses through the streets to the place where they were going to be executed. Alternate translation: “does not carry the wooden cross on which he will be executed”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
οὐ βαστάζει τὸν σταυρὸν αὐτοῦ
not /is/_bearing the cross ˱of˲_him
Jesus uses the phrase carry his cross, referring to this practice of execution, to say that his disciples must be people who have given up their lives to God and who are willing to suffer. Alternate translation: “does not surrender his life to God and be willing to suffer”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
ἔρχεται ὀπίσω μου
/is/_coming after me
This is an idiom. Alternate translation: “follow my example” or “obey me”
