Matthew 16
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
| ܘܩܪܒܘ ܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܙܕܘܩܝܐ ܡܢܤܝܢ ܠܗ ܘܫܐܠܝܢ ܠܗ ܐܬܐ ܡܢ ܫܡܝܐ ܕܢܚܘܐ ܐܢܘܢ |
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܥܢܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܪܡܫܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܨܚܘܐ ܗܘ ܤܡܩܬ ܓܝܪ ܫܡܝܐ |
3 In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!
| ܘܒܨܦܪܐ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܝܘܡܢܐ ܤܬܘܐ ܗܘ ܤܡܩܬ ܓܝܪ ܫܡܝܐ ܟܡܝܪܐܝܬ ܢܤܒܝ ܒܐܦܐ ܦܪܨܘܦܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܬܒܩܘܢ ܐܬܘܬܐ ܕܙܒܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܬܦܪܫܘܢ |
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
| ܫܪܒܬܐ ܒܝܫܬܐ ܘܓܝܪܬܐ ܐܬܐ ܒܥܝܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܠܐ ܡܬܝܗܒܐ ܠܗ ܐܠܐ ܐܬܗ ܕܝܘܢܢ ܢܒܝܐ ܘܫܒܩ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܐܙܠ |
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
| ܘܟܕ ܐܬܘ ܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܠܥܒܪܐ ܛܥܘ ܕܢܤܒܘܢ ܥܡܗܘܢ ܠܚܡܐ |
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܚܙܘ ܐܙܕܗܪܘ ܡܢ ܚܡܝܪܐ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܕܙܕܘܩܝܐ |
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܬܪܥܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܝܢ ܕܠܚܡܐ ܠܐ ܢܤܒܘ |
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
| ܝܫܘܥ ܕܝܢ ܝܕܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܐ ܡܬܚܫܒܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܒܢܦܫܟܘܢ ܙܥܘܪܝ ܗܝܡܢܘܬܐ ܕܠܚܡܐ ܠܐ ܫܩܠܬܘܢ |
9 Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
| ܠܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܠܗܫܐ ܐܤܬܟܠܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܥܗܕܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܚܡܫܐ ܠܚܡܝܢ ܕܚܡܫܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ ܘܟܡܐ ܩܘܦܝܢܝܢ ܫܩܠܬܘܢ |
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
| ܘܠܐ ܠܗܢܘܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܠܚܡܝܢ ܕܐܪܒܥܐ ܐܠܦܝܢ ܘܟܡܐ ܐܤܦܪܝܕܝܢ ܫܩܠܬܘܢ |
11 How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
| ܐܝܟܢ ܠܐ ܐܤܬܟܠܬܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܥܠ ܠܚܡܐ ܐܡܪܬ ܠܟܘܢ ܐܠܐ ܕܬܙܕܗܪܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܡܝܪܐ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܕܙܕܘܩܝܐ |
12 Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܤܬܟܠܘ ܕܠܐ ܐܡܪ ܕܢܙܕܗܪܘܢ ܡܢ ܚܡܝܪܐ ܕܠܚܡܐ ܐܠܐ ܡܢ ܝܘܠܦܢܐ ܕܦܪܝܫܐ ܘܕܙܕܘܩܝܐ |
13 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
| ܟܕ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܐܬܪܐ ܕܩܤܪܝܐ ܕܦܝܠܝܦܘܤ ܡܫܐܠ ܗܘܐ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܡܢܘ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܥܠܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܐܝܬܝ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ |
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
| ܗܢܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܡܪܘ ܐܝܬ ܕܐܡܪܝܢ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܡܥܡܕܢܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܐܠܝܐ ܘܐܚܪܢܐ ܐܪܡܝܐ ܐܘ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܢܒܝܐ |
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
| ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܝܢ ܡܢܘ ܐܡܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܐܝܬܝ |
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
| ܥܢܐ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܚܝܐ |
17 Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
| ܥܢܐ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܗ ܛܘܒܝܟ ܫܡܥܘܢ ܒܪܗ ܕܝܘܢܐ ܕܒܤܪܐ ܘܕܡܐ ܠܐ ܓܠܐ ܠܟ ܐܠܐ ܐܒܝ ܕܒܫܡܝܐ |
18 I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
| ܐܦ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܕܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܥܠ ܗܕܐ ܟܐܦܐ ܐܒܢܝܗ ܠܥܕܬܝ ܘܬܪܥܐ ܕܫܝܘܠ ܠܐ ܢܚܤܢܘܢܗ (Hadēs g86) |
19 I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
| ܠܟ ܐܬܠ ܩܠܝܕܐ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܕܫܡܝܐ ܘܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܕܬܐܤܘܪ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܐܤܝܪ ܒܫܡܝܐ ܘܡܕܡ ܕܬܫܪܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܢܗܘܐ ܫܪܐ ܒܫܡܝܐ |
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܦܩܕ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܕܠܐܢܫ ܠܐ ܢܐܡܪܘܢ ܕܗܘܝܘ ܡܫܝܚܐ |
21 From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
| ܘܡܢ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܫܪܝ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܡܚܘܝܘ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܕܥܬܝܕ ܗܘ ܕܢܐܙܠ ܠܐܘܪܫܠܡ ܘܤܓܝ ܢܚܫ ܡܢ ܩܫܝܫܐ ܘܡܢ ܪܒܝ ܟܗܢܐ ܘܤܦܪܐ ܘܢܬܩܛܠ ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܬܠܬܐ ܢܩܘܡ |
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
| ܘܕܒܪܗ ܟܐܦܐ ܘܫܪܝ ܠܡܟܐܐ ܒܗ ܘܐܡܪ ܚܤ ܠܟ ܡܪܝ ܕܬܗܘܐ ܠܟ ܗܕܐ |
23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
| ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܐܬܦܢܝ ܘܐܡܪ ܠܟܐܦܐ ܙܠ ܠܟ ܠܒܤܬܪܝ ܤܛܢܐ ܬܘܩܠܬܐ ܐܢܬ ܠܝ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܪܥܐ ܐܢܬ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܐܠܐ ܕܒܢܝ ܐܢܫܐ |
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
| ܗܝܕܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܝܫܘܥ ܠܬܠܡܝܕܘܗܝ ܡܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ ܢܟܦܘܪ ܒܢܦܫܗ ܘܢܫܩܘܠ ܙܩܝܦܗ ܘܢܐܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ |
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
| ܡܢ ܕܨܒܐ ܓܝܪ ܕܢܚܐ ܢܦܫܗ ܢܘܒܕܝܗ ܘܡܢ ܕܢܘܒܕ ܢܦܫܗ ܡܛܠܬܝ ܢܫܟܚܝܗ |
26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
| ܡܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܬܗܢܐ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܐܢ ܟܠܗ ܥܠܡܐ ܢܩܢܐ ܘܢܦܫܗ ܢܚܤܪ ܐܘ ܡܢܐ ܢܬܠ ܒܪܢܫܐ ܬܚܠܘܦܐ ܕܢܦܫܗ |
27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
| ܥܬܝܕ ܗܘ ܓܝܪ ܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܕܢܐܬܐ ܒܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܕܐܒܘܗܝ ܥܡ ܡܠܐܟܘܗܝ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܗܝܕܝܢ ܢܦܪܘܥ ܠܐܢܫ ܐܢܫ ܐܝܟ ܥܒܕܘܗܝ |
28 Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”
| ܐܡܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܕܐܝܬ ܐܢܫܐ ܕܩܝܡܝܢ ܬܢܢ ܕܠܐ ܢܛܥܡܘܢ ܡܘܬܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܚܙܘܢ ܠܒܪܗ ܕܐܢܫܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܒܡܠܟܘܬܗ |
