Matthew 16:13-19

131NowG1161 when JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the districtG3313 of 2CaesareaG2542 PhilippiG5376, He was askingG2065 His disciplesG3101, “WhoG5101 do peopleG444 sayG3004 that 3the SonG5207 of ManG444 is?”

14And they saidG3004, “SomeG3588G3303 say 4JohnG2491 the BaptistG910; and othersG243, 56ElijahG2243; but still othersG2087, 7JeremiahG2408, orG2228 oneG1520 of the prophetsG4396.”

15He saidG3004 to them, “But whoG5101 do you sayG3004 that I amG1510?”

16SimonG4613 PeterG4074 answeredG611, “You are 89the ChristG5547, 10the SonG5207 of 11the livingG2198 GodG2316.”

17And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “BlessedG3107 are you, 12SimonG4613 13BarjonaG920, becauseG3754 14fleshG4561 and bloodG129 did not revealG601 this to you, but My FatherG3962 whoG3588 is in heavenG3772.

18I alsoG2532 sayG3004 to you that you are 1516PeterG4074, and upon thisG3778 17rockG4073 I will buildG3618 My churchG1577; and the gatesG4439 of 18HadesG86 will not overpowerG2729 it.

19I will giveG1325 you 19the keysG2807 of the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772; and 20whateverG3739G1437 you bindG1210 on earthG1093 21shall have been boundG1210 in heavenG3772, and whateverG3739G1437 you looseG3089 on earthG1093 22shall have been loosedG3089 in heavenG3772.”
