Matthew 16:13-17

131NowG1161 when JesusG2424 cameG2064 into the regionG3313 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; and still othersG2087, 7JeremiahG2408, orG2228 oneG1520 of the other prophetsG4396.”

15He saidG3004 to them, “But whoG5101 do you yourselvesG4771 sayG3004 that I amG1510?”

16SimonG4613 PeterG4074 answeredG611, “You are 8the 9ChristG5547, 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.
