Matthew 16:13-17

13 1Now when Jesus came into the district of 2Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, “Who do people say that 3the Son of Man is?”

14And they said, “Some say 4John the Baptist; and others, 5 6Elijah; but still others, 7Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”

15He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”

16Simon Peter answered, “You are 8 9the Christ, 10the Son of 11the living God.”

17And Jesus said to him, “Blessed are you, 12Simon 13Barjona, because 14flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
