< Matthew 16 >

1 And having approached the Pharisees and Sadducees, testing they asked Him a sign out of heaven to show them.
And Pharisees and Sadducees approached him to test him, and they asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 And answering He said to them; Evening having come you say; Fair weather, is red for the sky.
But he responded by saying to them: “When evening arrives, you say, ‘It will be calm, for the sky is red,’
3 And in the morning; Today a storm, is red for being overcast the sky. (hypocrites *K) The indeed appearance of the sky you know [how] to discern, however the signs of the times not you are able?
and in the morning, ‘Today there will be a storm, for the sky is red and gloomy.’ So then, you know how to judge the appearance of the sky, but you are unable to know the signs of the times?
4 A generation evil and adulterous a sign seeks; and a sign not will be given to it only except the sign of Jonah (prophet. *K) And having left them He went away.
An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign. And a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” And leaving them behind, he went away.
5 And having come the disciples (of him *k) to the other side they forgot bread to take.
And when his disciples went across the sea, they forgot to bring bread.
6 And Jesus said to them; do watch and do beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
And he said to them, “Consider and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”
7 And they were reasoning among themselves saying Because bread not we took.
But they were thinking within themselves, saying, “It is because we have not brought bread.”
8 Having known [this] however Jesus said (to them: *k) Why reason you among yourselves, O [you] of little faith, because bread not (you take? *N+KO)
Then Jesus, knowing this, said: “Why do you consider within yourselves, O little in faith, that it is because you have no bread?
9 Not yet do you understand nor remember the five loaves for the five thousand and how many hand-baskets you gathered?
Do you not yet understand, nor remember, the five loaves among the five thousand men, and how many containers you took up?
10 Nor [remember] the seven loaves for the four thousand and how many baskets you gathered?
Or the seven loaves among the four thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?
11 How not understand you that not concerning (loaves *N+kO) I spoke to you? (do beware *N+kO) (also *no) of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!
Why do you not understand that it was not because of bread that I said to you: Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees?”
12 Then they understood that not He said to beware of the leaven (of the loaves *N+kO) but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Then they understood that he was not saying that they should beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
13 Having come then Jesus into the district of Caesarea Philippi He was questioning the disciples of Him saying; Whom (Me *k) do pronounce men to be the Son of man?
Then Jesus went into parts of Caesarea Philippi. And he questioned his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that the Son of man is?”
14 And they said: Some indeed, John the Baptist, others however, Elijah, others however, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.
And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, and others say Elijah, still others say Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15 He says to them; You yourselves but whom Me do you pronounce to be?
Jesus said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
16 Answering now Simon Peter said; You yourself are the Christ the Son of God the living.
Simon Peter responded by saying, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 (and *k) Answering (now *no) Jesus said to him; Blessed are you, Simon Barjona! For flesh and blood not revealed [it] to you but the Father of Mine who [is] in the heavens.
And in response, Jesus said to him: “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father, who is in heaven.
18 I myself also I myself also now to you say that you yourself are Peter and on this the rock I will build My church, and [the] gates of hades not will prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
And I say to you, that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church, and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. (Hadēs g86)
19 (and *ko) I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, and whatever (if *NK+o) you shall bind on the earth, will be bound in the heavens, and whatever (maybe *NK+o) you shall loose on the earth, will be loosed in the heavens.
And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatever you shall bind on earth shall be bound, even in heaven. And whatever you shall release on earth shall be released, even in heaven.”
20 Then (he ordered *NK+O) the disciples (of him *k) that to no one they may say that He himself is (Jesus *k) the Christ.
Then he instructed his disciples that they should tell no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
21 From that time began Jesus (Christ *O) to show to the disciples of Him that it is necessary for Him to Jerusalem to go away and many things to suffer from the elders and chief priests and scribes and to be killed and on the third day to be raised.
From that time, Jesus began to reveal to his disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem, and to suffer much from the elders and the scribes and the leaders of the priests, and to be killed, and to rise again on the third day.
22 And having taken aside Him Peter began to rebuke Him saying; Far be it from You, Lord; certainly not will be to You this.
And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, “Lord, may it be far from you; this shall not happen to you.”
23 And having turned He said to Peter; do go behind Me Satan! A stumbling block you are (to me, *N+kO) For not your thoughts are of those of God but [of] the [things] of men.
And turning away, Jesus said to Peter: “Get behind me, Satan; you are an obstacle to me. For you are not behaving according to what is of God, but according to what is of men.”
24 Then Jesus said to the disciples of Him; If anyone desires after Me to come, he should deny himself and he should take up the cross of him and he should follow Me.
Then Jesus said to his disciples: “If anyone is willing to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 Who[ever] for (maybe *N+kO) shall desire the life of him to save, will lose it; who[ever] however maybe shall lose the life of him on account of Me, will find it.
For whoever would save his life, will lose it. But whoever will have lost his life for my sake, shall find it.
26 What for (will it be profitable *N+kO) [for] a man, if the world whole he shall gain, but the soul of him shall lose? Or what will give a man [as] an exchange for the soul of him?
For how does it benefit a man, if he gains the whole world, yet truly suffers damage to his soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 Is about for the Son of the man to come in the glory of the Father of Him with the angels of Him and then He will give to each according to the deeds of him.
For the Son of man will arrive in the glory of his Father, with his Angels. And then he will repay each one according to his works.
28 Amen I say to you (that *no) there are some of those here (already standing *NK+o) who certainly not shall taste of death until when they may have seen the Son of Man coming in the kingdom of Him.
Amen I say to you, there are some among those standing here, who shall not taste death, until they see the Son of man arriving in his reign.”
