Matthew 16
1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
and he answering said to them, 'Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven is red,
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!
and at morning, Foul weather to-day, for the heaven is red — gloomy; hypocrites, the face of the heavens indeed ye do know to discern, but the signs of the times ye are not able!
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.
'A generation evil and adulterous doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;' and having left them he went away.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
and Jesus said to them, 'Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;'
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, 'Because we took no loaves.'
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
And Jesus having known, said to them, 'Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?
9 Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
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.”
how do ye not understand that I did not speak to you of bread — to take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?'
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.
Then they understood that he did not say to take heed of the leaven of the bread, but of the teaching, of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
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?”
And Jesus, having come to the parts of Caesarea Philippi, was asking his disciples, saying, 'Who do men say me to be — the Son of Man?'
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
and they said, 'Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.'
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
He saith to them, 'And ye — who do ye say me to be?'
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
and Simon Peter answering said, 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
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.
And Jesus answering said to him, 'Happy art thou, Simon Bar-Jona, because flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.
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)
'And I also say to thee, that thou art a rock, and upon this rock I will build my assembly, and gates of Hades shall not prevail against it; (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.”
and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.'
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
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.
From that time began Jesus to shew to his disciples that it is necessary for him to go away to Jerusalem, and to suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be put to death, and the third day to rise.
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, 'Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;'
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.”
and he having turned, said to Peter, 'Get thee behind me, adversary! thou art a stumbling-block to me, for thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.'
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.
Then said Jesus to his disciples, 'If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me,
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find it,
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?
for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?
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.
'For, the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, and then he will reward each, according to his work.
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.”
Verily I say to you, there are certain of those standing here who shall not taste of death till they may see the Son of Man coming in his reign.'
