* **deny himself** - "not give in to his own desires" or "forsake his own desires."
* **take up his cross, and follow me** - "lift up his cross, carry it, and walk behind me," being willing to suffer and die the way Christ did (See: [[:en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_metaphor]])
* **For whoever wants** - "For anyone who wants"
* **if he gains the whole world** - "if he gains everything in the world"
* **but forfeits his life** - "he himself is lost or destroyed"
