| 1 | And coming forth the Pharisees and the Sadducees trying had asked Him to show to them a sign from out of heaven. |
| 2 | 2 And replying to them He said: |
| 3 | — |
| 4 | "A wicked and adulterous race seeks a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it except the sign of Ionas!" And leaving them He departed. |
| 5 | And the students having come to the other side forgot to take bread. |
| 6 | Then Yahshua said to them: "Watch, and be on guard because of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!" |
| 7 | And they disputed among themselves, saying that "We did not take bread!" |
| 8 | But Yahshua knowing it said "Why do you dispute among yourselves, you of little faith, because you do not have bread? |
| 9 | Do you not yet perceive, nor do you remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you had taken? |
| 10 | Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many creels you had taken? |
| 11 | How do you not perceive that it is not concerning wheat-loaves that I spoke to you? But be on guard because of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!" |
| 12 | Then they understood that He did not say to be on guard because of the leaven of the wheat-loaves but because of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. |
| 13 | Then Yahshua having come into the regions of Caesareia Philippos, questioned His students saying: "Who do men say that the Son of Man is?" |
| 14 | And they said "Well, some Iohannes the Baptist, but others Elijah, and others Ieremias or one of the prophets." |
| 15 | He says to them "But who do you say that I am?" |
| 16 | And replying Simon Petros said: "You are the Anointed Son of Yahweh who is living!" |
| 17 | And replying Yahshua said to him: "Blessed you are, Simon son of Ionas, because flesh and blood have not revealed it to you, but My Father who is in the heavens! |
| 18 | And I say to you that you are a stone [petros], yet upon this bedrock [petra] shall I build My assembly and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it! |
| 19 | I shall give to you the little keys of the kingdom of the heavens, and he whom you should bind upon the earth shall be bound in the heavens, and he whom you should release upon the earth shall be released in the heavens!" |
| 20 | He ordered the students in order that they would tell no one that He is the Anointed One [Christ]. |
| 21 | From that time Yahshua Christ began to explain to His students that it is necessary for Him to depart for Jerusalem and to suffer many things from the elders and high priests and scribes and to be slain and to be raised on the third day. |
| 22 | And taking Him aside Petros began to admonish Him, saying "Mercy to You, Prince! This shall not be for You!" |
| 23 | And turning He said to Petros: "Get behind Me, adversary! Are you a trap for Me, because you mind not the affairs of Yahweh, but the affairs of men?" |
| 24 | Then Yahshua said to His students: "If one desires to come behind Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me! |
| 25 | For he who would wish to save his life shall lose it, and he who would lose his life because of Me shall find it! |
| 26 | For what shall it benefit a man if perhaps he should gain the whole society but his life is lost? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his life? |
| 27 | For the Son of Man is going to come with the splendor of His Father with His messengers, and then He shall render to each according to his practice. |
| 28 | Truly I say to you that there are some of those standing here who shall by no means taste death until when they should see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom!" |
