< Matthew 16 >

1 [Some] Pharisees and Sadducees came to [Jesus] and asked him [to perform] a miracle that would prove [that] [had sent him].
Ang mga Pariseo ug mga Saduseo miduol ug misulay kaniya pinaagi sa pagpangutana kaniya aron ipakita kanila ang mga timaan gikan sa langit.
2 He answered them, “[In this country], in the evening you say, ‘[It will be] good weather [tomorrow], because the sky is red.’
Apan mitubag siya ug miingon ngadto kanila, “Sa dihang gabii na, moingon kamo, 'Linaw kini nga panahon, kay ang kalangitan pula.
3 [Early] in the morning [you say], ‘It will be stormy weather today, because the sky is red, and dark clouds have formed.’ You understand how to predict [the weather by looking at the sky], but you cannot [seem to look at what is happening] now, [and by that] understand [what God is doing].
Ug sa kabuntagon moingon kamo, 'Dili maayo ang panahon karong adlawa, kay pula ang langit ug dag-om.' Nasayod kamo kung unsaon paghubad ang hulagway sa kalangitan, apan dili kamo makahubad sa mga ilhanan sa panahon.
4 [You] evil people have seen me [perform miracles] but you do not faithfully worship God [MET]. You want to see [me perform] a miracle [that would prove that God has sent me]. But [God] will [enable you to see] only one miracle. It will be [like] what happened [MET] to Jonah, [the prophet, who was inside a huge fish for three days and then came out of it to live again].” Then Jesus left them and sailed away, [along with us disciples].
Ang daotan ug mananapaw nga kaliwatan nangita alang sa usa ka ilhanan, apan walay ilhanan nga ikahatag niini gawas sa ilhanan ni Jonas.” Unya mibiya si Jesus kanila ug nagpalayo.
5 [We] forgot to take bread when [we] sailed to another edge of [the lake].
Ang mga disipulo miadto sa pikas bahin, apan nakalimot sila sa pagdala ug tinapay.
6 [Then] Jesus said to us, “Beware [that you do not accept] the yeast [MET] that the Pharisees and Sadducees [distribute].”
Si Jesus miingon kanila, “Pagpakabana kamo ug pagbantay sa mga igpapatubo sa mga Pariseo ug Saduseo.”
7 Then, [not realizing that he was speaking figuratively], [we] said to one another, “[He must have said that] because we forgot to bring any bread!”
Ang mga disipulo nangatarongan sa usag usa ug miingon, “Tungod kini nga wala kita makadala ug tinapay,”
8 Because Jesus knew what [we were saying], he said [to us], “(I am disappointed that you are discussing among yourselves, [thinking] that [it was because] you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]./Why are you discussing among yourselves thinking that it was because you did not bring any bread [that I talked about the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees]?) [RHQ] You believe only a little [what I am able to do for you].
Si Jesus nakabantay niini ug miingon, “Kagamay sa inyong pagtuo, nganong nangatarongan man kamo sa usag usa ug nag-ingon nga tungod kini nga wala kamo makadala ug tinapay?
9 (You should understand [that I can continue to do miracles to provide for what you need./] you not yet understand [that I can provide miraculously for you if you need food]?) [RHQ] Do you not remember that 5,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] five small loaves [and the two fish? And after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [twelve] baskets [of left-over pieces] [RHQ]!
Wala gihapon kamo makasabot o makahinumdom sa lima ka tinapay alang sa 5, 000, ug pila ka mga bukag ang inyong natigom?
10 [Do you not remember] [RHQ] [that] 4,000 [people ate when I multiplied the] seven small loaves [and a few fish]? And [after everyone had enough to eat], you collected [seven] large baskets [of left-over pieces]
O ang pito ka tinapay alang sa 4, 000, ug pila ang nahibilin nga mga bukag ang inyong nakuha?
11 (You should have understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast]./Why have you not understood that I was not speaking about [real] bread [that contains yeast?]) [RHQ] What I [was saying] was that you should [not accept what] the Pharisees and Sadducees [say, because it would affect you like] yeast [affects] [MET] [dough].”
Nganong wala man kamo makasabot nga wala ako maghisgot kaninyo mahitungod sa tinapay? Pagpakabana kamo ug pagbantay sa igpapatubo sa mga Pariseo ug Saduseo.”
12 Then we understood that he was not talking about the yeast that is [in] bread. Instead, [he was talking] about the [wrong] teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Unya nakasabot sila nga wala siya magsulti kanila nga magbinantayon sa igpapatubo diha sa tinapay, kondili magbantay sa mga gipangtudlo sa mga Pariseo ug mga Saduseo.
13 When Jesus came with [us] disciples to the region near Caesarea Philippi [town], he asked us, “Who do people say that I, the one who came from heaven, [really] am?”
Karon sa dihang miadto si Jesus ngadto sa mga bahin sa Cesarea Filipos, nangutana siya sa iyang mga disipulo, nga nag-ingon, “Kinsa ang giingon sa katawhan nga Anak sa Tawo?”
14 We answered, “Some [people say that you are] John the Baptizer, [who has come back to life again]. Others say [that you are the prophet] Elijah, [who has returned from heaven as God promised]. [Still] others [say that you are the prophet] Jeremiah or one of the [other] prophets [who lived long ago, who has come back to life again].”
Miingon sila, “Ang uban miingon si Juan nga Tigbawtismo; ang uban, si Elias; ug ang uban, si Jeremias, o usa sa mga Propeta.”
15 Jesus said to us, “[What about] you? Who do you say that I am?”
Siya miingon kanila, “Apan alang kaninyo kinsa man ako?”
16 Simon Peter said to him, “You are the Messiah! You are the Son of the all-powerful God.”
Sa pagtubag, si Simon Pedro miingon, “Ikaw mao ang Cristo, ang Anak sa buhing Dios.”
17 Then Jesus said to him, “Simon, son of Jonah, [God] is pleased with you. What you just said was not [SYN] revealed to you by any human. Instead, [it was] my Father [who lives] in heaven [who revealed this to you].
Si Jesus mitubag ug miingon kaniya, “Bulahan ikaw, Simon nga anak ni Jonas, kay ang unod ug dugo wala nagpadayag niini kanimo, apan ang akong Amahan nga anaa sa langit.
18 I will also tell you this: You are Peter, [which means rock]. [You are like] a rock. What you [and your fellow apostles teach] (OR, [what] you [do]) [will be like a foundation on which I] will create congregations of people who [believe in] me. And the demons [PRS], [who live] where the dead people who lived evil lives are, will not be able to [come and] prevent [MET] [me from doing] that.” (Hadēs g86)
Ako usab moingon kanimo nga ikaw si Pedro, ug ibabaw niining bato tukoron ko ang akong simbahan. Ang ganghaan sa hades dili gani makabuntog batok niini. (Hadēs g86)
19 [Then, speaking to all of us, he said], “I will enable you [(pl)] to have authority [MTY] over the groups of people over whose lives [God] rules. Whatever you forbid regarding those people [MTY], it will have been forbidden by God. Whatever you permit [MET] regarding them, it will have been permitted by God.”
Akong ihatag kanimo ang mga yawi sa gingharian sa langit. Kung unsa ang imong gibugkos dinhi sa kalibotan binugkos didto sa langit, ug kung unsa ang imong gibadbaran dinhi sa kalibotan pagabadbaran usab didto sa langit.”
20 Then Jesus warned [us] disciples strongly not to tell anyone [at that time] that he is the Messiah.
Unya gimandoan ni Jesus ang iyang mga disipulo nga kinahanglan dili sila mosulti ni bisan kinsa nga siya ang Cristo.
21 From that time Jesus began to teach [us] disciples that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem [city]. There the ruling elders, the chief priests, and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws would cause him to suffer and (be killed/die). Then on the third day [after that], he would become alive again.
Gikan niadtong taknaa si Jesus misugod sa pagsulti sa iyang mga disipulo nga kinahanglan siya moadto sa Jerusalem, mag-antos sa daghang mga butang sa mga kamot sa mga kadagkoan ug sa mga pangulong pari ug sa mga eskriba, pagapatyon, ug pagabanhawon pagbalik sa ikatulo ka adlaw.
22 [Because Peter assumed that the Messiah would not suffer and die], he took Jesus aside and began to rebuke him [for talking about suffering and dying]. He said, “Lord, may [God] never permit that to happen to you! That must certainly not happen!”
Unya si Pedro mibira kaniya sa daplin ug gibadlong siya, nga nag-ingon, “Hinaot nga mahilayo kini kanimo, Ginoo; hinaot nga dili kini mahitabo kanimo.”
23 Then Jesus turned [to look at] Peter, and he said to him, “Stop talking to me [like that] [MTY]! [Stop saying what] Satan [MET] [would say, and stop] trying to prevent [from happening what God has planned]! You are a hindrance to me, because you are not thinking like God thinks. Instead, [you are thinking] like people [think]!”
Apan milingi si Jesus kaniya ug miingon kang Pedro, “Palayo kanako, Satanas! Babag ka kanako, kay wala ka nagpakabana sa mga butang sa Dios, kondili alang sa mga butang nga iya sa tawo.”
24 Then Jesus said to [us] disciples, “If any one [of you] wants to be my disciple, you must not do [only] what you yourself want [to do]. [You] must be willing to [let people hurt you and disgrace you. That is like what they do to criminals whom they force to] carry a cross [MET] [to the place where the criminals will be executed. That is what anyone who wants to] be my disciple [must do].
Unya miingon si Jesus sa iyang mga disipulo, “Kung kinsa ang buot mosunod kanako, kinahanglan nga kalimtan niya ang iyang kaugalingon, pas-anon ang iyang krus, ug mosunod kanako.
25 [You must do that], because those who try to save their lives [by denying that they belong to me when people want to kill them for believing in me] will not live [eternally], but those who are killed [because of being my disciples] will live [with God eternally].
Kay si bisan kinsa ang buot moluwas sa iyang kinabuhi mawad-an niini, ug si bisan kinsa ang mawad-an sa iyang kinabuhi tungod kanako makakaplag niini.
26 People [might] get everything [they want] in this world, but ([if they do not become my disciples], they would really be gaining nothing [because] they would not get eternal life!/what would they gain [if they do not become my disciples and thus] do not get eternal life?) [RHQ] (There is absolutely nothing that people can give [to God] that would enable them to gain eternal life./What can people give [to God] that could enable them to gain eternal life?) [MTY, RHQ]
Kay unsa ang kapuslanan sa usa ka tawo kung iyang maangkon ang tibuok kalibotan apan mawad-an sa iyang kaugalingon nga kinabuhi? Unsa ang ikahatag sa tawo nga baylo alang sa iyang kinabuhi?
27 [Listen carefully: I], the one who came from heaven, [will leave this earth, but] I will return, and the angels of heaven will accompany me. At that time I will have the glorious [radiance] that my Father has, and I will reward everyone according to what they did [when they were living on earth].
Kay ang Anak sa Tawo moabot pinaagi sa himaya sa iyang Amahan uban sa iyang mga anghel. Unya bayaran niya ang matag usa ka tawo sumala sa iyang binuhatan.
28 Listen carefully! Some of you who are here now will see [me], the one who came from heaven, when I return to rule. You will see this before you die!”
Sa pagkatinuod sultihan ko kamo, adunay pipila kaninyo dinhi nga nagtindog, nga dili makaagi ug kamatayon hangtod nga ilang makita ang Anak sa Tawo nga moabot diha sa iyang gingharian.”
