< Matthew 16 >
1 And having approached the Pharisees and Sadducees, testing they asked Him a sign out of heaven to show them.
The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, 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 answered and said to them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, 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?
In the morning, 'It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you cannot discern 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 after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of Jonah." He left them, and departed.
5 And having come the disciples (of him *k*) to the other side they forgot bread to take.
The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
6 And Jesus said to them; do watch and do beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Jesus said to them, "Watch out and guard yourselves against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
7 And they were reasoning among themselves saying Because bread not we took.
They reasoned among themselves, saying, "We brought no 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(K)O*)
But Jesus, becoming aware of this, said, "You of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves about having 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 still not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
10 Nor [remember] the seven loaves for the four thousand and how many baskets you gathered?
Nor the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11 How not understand you that not concerning (loaves *N(k)O*) I spoke to you? (do beware *N(k)O*) (also *no*) of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!
Why is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
12 Then they understood that not He said to beware of the leaven (of the loaves *N(k)O*) but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and 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?
Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do people 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.
They said, "Some say John the Baptist, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."
15 He says to them; You yourselves but whom Me do you pronounce to be?
He 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 answered, "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 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.
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 )
I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this Rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. (Hadēs )
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.
I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed 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 commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he is 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 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.
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.
Peter took him aside, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Far be it from you, Lord. This will never be done to you."
23 And having turned He said to Peter; do go behind Me Satan! A stumbling block you are (to me, *N(k)O*) For not your thoughts are of those of God but [of] the [things] of men.
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 humans."
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 desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 Who[ever] for (maybe *N(k)O*) 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 desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
26 What for (will it be profitable *N(k)O*) [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 what will it profit a person, if he gains the whole world, and forfeits his life? Or what will a person give in exchange for his life?
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 come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
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.
Truly 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."
