Luke 9:59-61

New International Reader's Version

⁵⁹ He said to another man, “Follow me.”

But the man replied, “Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”

⁶⁰ Jesus said to him, “Let dead people bury their own dead. You go and tell others about God’s kingdom.”

⁶¹ Still another person said, “I will follow you, Lord. But first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”
