< Matthew 16 >

1 And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,
και προσελθοντεσ οι φαρισαιοι και σαδδουκαιοι πειραζοντεσ επηρωτησαν αυτον σημειον εκ του ουρανου επιδειξαι αυτοισ
2 and he answering said to them, 'Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven is red,
ο δε αποκριθεισ ειπεν αυτοισ οψιασ γενομενησ λεγετε ευδια πυρραζει γαρ ο ουρανοσ
3 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!
και πρωι σημερον χειμων πυρραζει γαρ στυγναζων ο ουρανοσ υποκριται το μεν προσωπον του ουρανου γινωσκετε διακρινειν τα δε σημεια των καιρων ου δυνασθε
4 '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.
γενεα πονηρα και μοιχαλισ σημειον επιζητει και σημειον ου δοθησεται αυτη ει μη το σημειον ιωνα του προφητου και καταλιπων αυτουσ απηλθεν
5 And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,
και ελθοντεσ οι μαθηται αυτου εισ το περαν επελαθοντο αρτουσ λαβειν
6 and Jesus said to them, 'Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;'
ο δε ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ ορατε και προσεχετε απο τησ ζυμησ των φαρισαιων και σαδδουκαιων
7 and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, 'Because we took no loaves.'
οι δε διελογιζοντο εν εαυτοισ λεγοντεσ οτι αρτουσ ουκ ελαβομεν
8 And Jesus having known, said to them, 'Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?
γνουσ δε ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτοισ τι διαλογιζεσθε εν εαυτοισ ολιγοπιστοι οτι αρτουσ ουκ ελαβετε
9 do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?
ουπω νοειτε ουδε μνημονευετε τουσ πεντε αρτουσ των πεντακισχιλιων και ποσουσ κοφινουσ ελαβετε
10 nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
ουδε τουσ επτα αρτουσ των τετρακισχιλιων και ποσασ σπυριδασ ελαβετε
11 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?'
πωσ ου νοειτε οτι ου περι αρτου ειπον υμιν προσεχειν απο τησ ζυμησ των φαρισαιων και σαδδουκαιων
12 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.
τοτε συνηκαν οτι ουκ ειπεν προσεχειν απο τησ ζυμησ του αρτου αλλα απο τησ διδαχησ των φαρισαιων και σαδδουκαιων
13 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?'
ελθων δε ο ιησουσ εισ τα μερη καισαρειασ τησ φιλιππου ηρωτα τουσ μαθητασ αυτου λεγων τινα με λεγουσιν οι ανθρωποι ειναι τον υιον του ανθρωπου
14 and they said, 'Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.'
οι δε ειπον οι μεν ιωαννην τον βαπτιστην αλλοι δε ηλιαν ετεροι δε ιερεμιαν η ενα των προφητων
15 He saith to them, 'And ye — who do ye say me to be?'
λεγει αυτοισ υμεισ δε τινα με λεγετε ειναι
16 and Simon Peter answering said, 'Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.'
αποκριθεισ δε σιμων πετροσ ειπεν συ ει ο χριστοσ ο υιοσ του θεου του ζωντοσ
17 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.
και αποκριθεισ ο ιησουσ ειπεν αυτω μακαριοσ ει σιμων βαριωνα οτι σαρξ και αιμα ουκ απεκαλυψεν σοι αλλ ο πατηρ μου ο εν τοισ ουρανοισ
18 '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)
καγω δε σοι λεγω οτι συ ει πετροσ και επι ταυτη τη πετρα οικοδομησω μου την εκκλησιαν και πυλαι αδου ου κατισχυσουσιν αυτησ (Hadēs g86)
19 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.'
και δωσω σοι τασ κλεισ τησ βασιλειασ των ουρανων και ο εαν δησησ επι τησ γησ εσται δεδεμενον εν τοισ ουρανοισ και ο εαν λυσησ επι τησ γησ εσται λελυμενον εν τοισ ουρανοισ
20 Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
τοτε διεστειλατο τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου ινα μηδενι ειπωσιν οτι αυτοσ εστιν ιησουσ ο χριστοσ
21 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.
απο τοτε ηρξατο ο ιησουσ δεικνυειν τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου οτι δει αυτον απελθειν εισ ιεροσολυμα και πολλα παθειν απο των πρεσβυτερων και αρχιερεων και γραμματεων και αποκτανθηναι και τη τριτη ημερα εγερθηναι
22 And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, 'Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;'
και προσλαβομενοσ αυτον ο πετροσ ηρξατο επιτιμαν αυτω λεγων ιλεωσ σοι κυριε ου μη εσται σοι τουτο
23 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.'
ο δε στραφεισ ειπεν τω πετρω υπαγε οπισω μου σατανα σκανδαλον μου ει οτι ου φρονεισ τα του θεου αλλα τα των ανθρωπων
24 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,
τοτε ο ιησουσ ειπεν τοισ μαθηταισ αυτου ει τισ θελει οπισω μου ελθειν απαρνησασθω εαυτον και αρατω τον σταυρον αυτου και ακολουθειτω μοι
25 for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find it,
οσ γαρ αν θελη την ψυχην αυτου σωσαι απολεσει αυτην οσ δ αν απολεση την ψυχην αυτου ενεκεν εμου ευρησει αυτην
26 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?
τι γαρ ωφελειται ανθρωποσ εαν τον κοσμον ολον κερδηση την δε ψυχην αυτου ζημιωθη η τι δωσει ανθρωποσ ανταλλαγμα τησ ψυχησ αυτου
27 '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.
μελλει γαρ ο υιοσ του ανθρωπου ερχεσθαι εν τη δοξη του πατροσ αυτου μετα των αγγελων αυτου και τοτε αποδωσει εκαστω κατα την πραξιν αυτου
28 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.'
αμην λεγω υμιν εισιν τινεσ ωδε εστωτεσ οιτινεσ ου μη γευσωνται θανατου εωσ αν ιδωσιν τον υιον του ανθρωπου ερχομενον εν τη βασιλεια αυτου
