< Matthew 16 >

1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
Àwọn Farisi àti àwọn Sadusi wá láti dán Jesu wò. Wọ́n ní kí ó fi àmì ńlá kan hàn àwọn ní ojú ọ̀run.
2 But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
Ó dá wọn lóhùn pé, “Nígbà tí ó bá di àṣálẹ́, ẹ ó sọ pé, ‘Ìbá dára kí ojú ọ̀run pọ́n.’
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!
Ní òwúrọ̀, ‘Ẹ̀yin yóò wí pé ọjọ́ kì yóò dára lónìí, nítorí ti ojú ọ̀run pọ́n, ó sì ṣú dẹ̀dẹ̀,’ ẹ̀yin àgàbàgebè, ẹ̀yin le sọ àmì ojú ọ̀run, ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin kò le mọ àmì àwọn àkókò wọ̀nyí.
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.
Ìran búburú aláìgbàgbọ́ yìí ń béèrè àmì àjèjì mélòó kàn ni ojú sánmọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n a kí yóò fún ẹnìkankan ní àmì bí kò ṣe àmì Jona.” Nígbà náà ni Jesu fi wọ́n sílẹ̀, ó sì bá tirẹ̀ lọ.
5 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
Nígbà tí wọ́n dé apá kejì adágún, àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ ṣàkíyèsí pé wọ́n ti gbàgbé láti mú àkàrà kankan lọ́wọ́.
6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Jesu sì kìlọ̀ fún wọn pé, “Ẹ kíyèsára, ẹ sì ṣọ́ra, ní ti ìwúkàrà àwọn Farisi àti àwọn Sadusi.”
7 They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
Wọ́n ń sọ eléyìí ni àárín ara wọn wí pé, “Nítorí tí àwa kò mú àkàrà lọ́wọ́ ni.”
8 Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
Nígbà tí ó gbọ́ ohun ti wọ́n ń sọ, Jesu béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin onígbàgbọ́ kékeré, èéṣe tí ẹ̀yin ń dààmú ara yín pé ẹ̀yin kò mú oúnjẹ lọ́wọ́?
9 Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
Tàbí ọ̀rọ̀ kò yé yín di ìsinsin yìí? Ẹ̀yin kò rántí pé mo bọ́ ẹgbẹ̀rún márùn-ún ènìyàn pẹ̀lú ìṣù àkàrà márùn-ún àti iye agbọ̀n tí ẹ kójọ bí àjẹkù?
10 or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
Ẹ kò sì tún rántí ìṣù méje tí mo fi bọ́ ẹgbàajì ènìyàn àti iye agbọ̀n tí ẹ̀yín kójọ?
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.”
Èéha ṣe tí kò fi yé yín pé èmi kò sọ̀rọ̀ nípa ti àkàrà? Lẹ́ẹ̀kan sí i, mo wí fún yín, ẹ ṣọ́ra fún ìwúkàrà àwọn Farisi àti ti Sadusi.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni ó ṣẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wáyé wọn pé, kì í ṣe nípa ti ìwúkàrà ní ó sọ wí pé kí wọ́n kíyèsára, bí kò ṣe tí ẹ̀kọ́ àwọn Farisi àti Sadusi.
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?”
Nígbà tí Jesu sì dé Kesarea-Filipi, ó bi àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Ta ni àwọn ènìyàn ń fi Ọmọ Ènìyàn pè?”
14 They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
Wọ́n dá a lóhùn pé, “Àwọn kan ni Johanu onítẹ̀bọmi ni, àwọn mìíràn wí pé, Elijah ni, àwọn mìíràn wí pé, Jeremiah ni, tàbí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn wòlíì.”
15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
“Ṣùgbọ́n ẹyin ń kọ?” Ó bi í léèrè pé, “Ta ni ẹ̀yin ń fi mi pè?”
16 Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Simoni Peteru dáhùn pé, “Ìwọ ni Kristi náà, Ọmọ Ọlọ́run alààyè.”
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.
Jesu sì wí fún un pé, “Alábùkún fún ni ìwọ Simoni ọmọ Jona, nítorí ẹran-ara àti ẹ̀jẹ̀ kọ́ ló fi èyí hàn bí kò ṣe Baba mi tí ó ń bẹ ní ọ̀run.
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)
Èmi wí fún ọ, ìwọ ni Peteru àti pé orí àpáta yìí ni èmi yóò kọ́ ìjọ mi lé, àti ẹnu-ọ̀nà ipò òkú kì yóò lè borí rẹ̀. (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.”
Èmi yóò fún ní àwọn kọ́kọ́rọ́ ìjọba Ọ̀run; ohun tí ìwọ bá dè ní ayé, òun ni a ó dè ní ọ̀run. Ohunkóhun tí ìwọ bá sì tú ní ayé yìí, a ó sì tú ní ọ̀run.”
20 Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
Nígbà náà ó kìlọ̀ fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé wọn kò gbọdọ̀ sọ fún ẹnikẹ́ni pé Òun ni Kristi náà.
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.
Láti ìgbà yìí lọ, Jesu bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ṣàlàyé fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ kedere nípa lílọ sí Jerusalẹmu láti jẹ ọ̀pọ̀ ìyà lọ́wọ́ àwọn àgbàgbà, àwọn olórí àlùfáà àti àwọn akọ̀wé, kí a sì pa òun, àti ní ọjọ́ kẹta, kí ó sì jíǹde.
22 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
Peteru mú Jesu sí ẹ̀gbẹ́ kan, ó bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí í bá a wí pé, “Kí a má rí i Olúwa! Èyí kì yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ sí Ọ!”
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.”
Jesu pa ojú dà, ó sì wí fún Peteru pé, “Kúrò lẹ́yìn mi, Satani! Ohun ìkọ̀sẹ̀ ni ìwọ jẹ́ fún mi; ìwọ kò ro ohun tí i ṣe ti Ọlọ́run, bí kò ṣe èyí ti ṣe ti ènìyàn.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Jesu wí fún àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ pé, “Bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá fẹ́ tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn, kí ó sẹ́ ara rẹ̀, kí ó sì gbé àgbélébùú rẹ̀, kí ó sì máa tọ̀ mí lẹ́yìn.
25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
Nítorí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá fẹ́ gba ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ là, yóò sọ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ nù ṣùgbọ́n ẹnikẹ́ni tí ó bá sọ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ nù nítorí mi, yóò rí i.
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?
Èrè kí ni ó jẹ́ fún ènìyàn bí ó bá jèrè gbogbo ayé yìí, tí ó sì sọ ẹ̀mí rẹ̀ nù? Tàbí kí ni ènìyàn yóò fi dípò ẹ̀mí rẹ̀?
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.
Nítorí Ọmọ Ènìyàn yóò wá nínú ògo baba rẹ pẹ̀lú àwọn angẹli rẹ̀, nígbà náà ni yóò sì san án fún olúkúlùkù gẹ́gẹ́ bí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
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.”
“Lóòótọ́ ni mo wí fún yín. Ẹlòmíràn wà nínú àwọn tí ó wà níhìn-ín yìí, tí kì yóò ri ikú títí wọn ó fi rí Ọmọ Ènìyàn tí yóò máa bọ̀ ní ìjọba rẹ̀.”
