Matthew 16:9-28

9Do you not yetG3768 understandG3539 orG3761 rememberG3421 1the fiveG4002 loavesG740 of the fiveG4000 thousandG4000, and howG4214 manyG4214 basketsG2894 full you pickedG2983 up? 10OrG3761 2the sevenG2033 loavesG740 of the fourG5070 thousandG5070, and howG4214 manyG4214 largeG4711 basketsG4711 full you pickedG2983 up? 11HowG4459 is it that you do not understandG3539 that I did not speakG3004 to you concerningG4012 breadG740? But 3bewareG4337 of the 4leavenG2219 of the 5PhariseesG5330 and SadduceesG4523.” 12ThenG5119 they understoodG4920 that He did not sayG3004 to bewareG4337 of the leavenG2219 of breadG740, but of the teachingG1322 of the 6PhariseesG5330 and SadduceesG4523.

137NowG1161 when JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the districtG3313 of 8CaesareaG2542 PhilippiG5376, He was askingG2065 His disciplesG3101, “WhoG5101 do peopleG444 sayG3004 that 9the SonG5207 of ManG444 is?” 14And they saidG3004, “SomeG3588G3303 say 10JohnG2491 the BaptistG910; and othersG243, 1112ElijahG2243; but still othersG2087, 13JeremiahG2408, orG2228 oneG1520 of the prophetsG4396.” 15He saidG3004 to them, “But whoG5101 do you sayG3004 that I amG1510?” 16SimonG4613 PeterG4074 answeredG611, “You are 1415the ChristG5547, 16the SonG5207 of 17the livingG2198 GodG2316.” 17And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “BlessedG3107 are you, 18SimonG4613 19BarjonaG920, becauseG3754 20fleshG4561 and bloodG129 did not revealG601 this to you, but My FatherG3962 whoG3588 is in heavenG3772. 18I alsoG2532 sayG3004 to you that you are 2122PeterG4074, and upon thisG3778 23rockG4073 I will buildG3618 My churchG1577; and the gatesG4439 of 24HadesG86 will not overpowerG2729 it. 19I will giveG1325 you 25the keysG2807 of the kingdomG932 of heavenG3772; and 26whateverG3739G1437 you bindG1210 on earthG1093 27shall have been boundG1210 in heavenG3772, and whateverG3739G1437 you looseG3089 on earthG1093 28shall have been loosedG3089 in heavenG3772.” 2029ThenG5119 He 30warnedG2008 the disciplesG3101 that they should tellG3004 noG3367 oneG3367 that He was 3132the ChristG5547.

2133From that timeG5119 34JesusG2424 beganG757 to showG1166 His disciplesG3101 that He mustG1163 goG565 to JerusalemG2414, and 35sufferG3958 manyG4183 thingsG4183 from the eldersG4245 and chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and be killedG615, and be raisedG1453 up on the thirdG5154 dayG2250. 22PeterG4074 tookG4355 Him asideG4355 and beganG757 to rebukeG2008 Him, sayingG3004, “36GodG2436 forbidG2436 it, LordG2962! ThisG3778 shall neverG3756G3361 37happenG1510 to You.” 23But He turnedG4762 and saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “GetG5217 behindG3694 Me, 38SatanG4567! You are a stumblingG4625 blockG4625 to Me; for you are not settingG5426 your mindG5426 on 39God’sG2316 interests, but man’sG444.”

24ThenG5119 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wishesG2309 to comeG2064 afterG3694 Me, he must denyG533 himselfG1438, and 40takeG142 up his crossG4716 and followG190 Me. 25For 41whoeverG3739G1437 wishesG2309 to saveG4982 his 42lifeG5590 will loseG622 it; but whoeverG3739G302 losesG622 his 43lifeG5590 for My sakeG1752 will findG2147 it. 26For whatG5101 will it profitG5623 a manG444 ifG1437 he gainsG2770 the wholeG3650 worldG2889 and forfeitsG2210 his soulG5590? OrG2228 whatG5101 will a manG444 giveG1325 in exchangeG465 for his soulG5590? 27For the 44SonG5207 of ManG444 45is goingG3195 to comeG2064 in the gloryG1391 of His FatherG3962 with His angelsG32, and 46will thenG5119 47repayG591 everyG1538 manG1538 accordingG2596 to his 48deedsG4234.

28“TrulyG281 I sayG3004 to you, there are someG5100 of thoseG3588 who are standingG2476 hereG5602 whoG3748 will not tasteG1089 deathG2288 untilG2193 they seeG3708 the 49SonG5207 of ManG444 50comingG2064 in His kingdomG932.”
