Matthew 16 (WEBP)

[1] The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him to show them a sign from heaven.
[2] But he answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’
[3] In the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the appearance of the sky, but you can’t discern the signs of the times!
[4] An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah.” He left them and departed.
[5] The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten to take bread.
[6] Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
[7] They reasoned among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
[8] Jesus, perceiving it, said, “Why do you reason among yourselves, you of little faith, because you have brought no bread?
[9] Don’t you yet perceive or remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up,
[10] or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
[11] How is it that you don’t perceive that I didn’t speak to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
[12] Then they understood that he didn’t tell them to beware of the yeast of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
[13] Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
[14] They said, “Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
[15] He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
[16] Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
[17] Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
[18] I also tell you that you are Peter,° and on this rock° I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades§ will not prevail against it.
[19] I will give to you the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will have been released in heaven.”
[20] Then he commanded the disciples that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.
[21] From that time, Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up.
[22] Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord! This will never be done to you.”
[23] But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of men.”
[24] Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.
[25] For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for my sake will find it.
[26] For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life?
[27] For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.
[28] Most certainly I tell you, there are some standing here who will in no way taste of death until they see the Son of Man coming in his Kingdom.”

Matthew 16 (KJVS)

[1] The Pharisees G5330 also G2532 with the Sadducees G4523 came G4334 (Aor2ActPtc), and G2532 tempting G3985 (PresActPtc) desired G1905 (AorActInd) him G846 that he would shew G1925 (AorActInf) them G846 a sign G4592 from G1537 heaven G3772.
[2] G1161 He answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, When it is G1096 (Aor2MidDepPtc) evening G3798, ye say G3004 (PresActInd), [It will be] fair weather G2105: for G1063 the sky G3772 is red G4449 (PresActInd).
[3] And G2532 in the morning G4404, [It will be] foul weather G5494 to day G4594: for G1063 the sky G3772 is red G4449 (PresActInd) and lowring G4768 (PresActPtc). O [ye] hypocrites G5273, ye can G1097 (PresActInd) discern G1252 (PresActInf) G3303 the face G4383 of the sky G3772; but G1161 can ye G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd) not G3756 [discern] the signs G4592 of the times G2540?
[4] A wicked G4190 and G2532 adulterous G3428 generation G1074 seeketh after G1934 (PresActInd) a sign G4592; and G2532 there shall no G3756 sign G4592 be given G1325 (FutPasInd) unto it G846, but G1508 the sign G4592 of the prophet G4396 Jonas G2495. And G2532 he left G2641 (Aor2ActPtc) them G846, and departed G565 (Aor2ActInd).
[5] And G2532 when his G846 disciples G3101 were come G2064 (Aor2ActPtc) to G1519 the other side G4008, they had forgotten G1950 (Aor2MidDepInd) to take G2983 (Aor2ActInf) bread G740.
[6] Then G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, Take heed G3708 (PresActImpr) and G2532 beware G4337 (PresActImpr) of G575 the leaven G2219 of the Pharisees G5330 and G2532 of the Sadducees G4523.
[7] And G1161 they reasoned G1260 (ImpfMidPasDepInd) among G1722 themselves G1438, saying G3004 (PresActPtc), [It is] because G3754 we have taken G2983 (Aor2ActInd) no G3756 bread G740.
[8] [Which] when G1161 Jesus G2424 perceived G1097 (Aor2ActPtc), he said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, O ye of little faith G3640, why G5101 reason ye G1260 (PresMidPasDepInd) among G1722 yourselves G1438, because G3754 ye have brought G2983 (Aor2ActInd) no G3756 bread G740?
[9] Do ye G3539 not yet G3768 understand G3539 (PresActInd), neither G3761 remember G3421 (PresActInd) the five G4002 loaves G740 of the five thousand G4000, and G2532 how many G4214 baskets G2894 ye took up G2983 (Aor2ActInd)?
[10] Neither G3761 the seven G2033 loaves G740 of the four thousand G5070, and G2532 how many G4214 baskets G4711 ye took up G2983 (Aor2ActInd)?
[11] How G4459 is it that G3754 ye do G3539 not G3756 understand G3539 (PresActInd) that I spake G2036 (Aor2ActInd) [it] not G3756 to you G5213 concerning G4012 bread G740, that ye should beware G4337 (PresActInf) of G575 the leaven G2219 of the Pharisees G5330 and G2532 of the Sadducees G4523?
[12] Then G5119 understood they G4920 (AorActInd) how that G3754 he bade G2036 (Aor2ActInd) [them] not G3756 beware G4337 (PresActInf) of G575 the leaven G2219 of bread G740, but G235 of G575 the doctrine G1322 of the Pharisees G5330 and G2532 of the Sadducees G4523.
[13] When G1161 Jesus G2424 came G2064 (Aor2ActPtc) into G1519 the coasts G3313 of Caesarea G2542 Philippi G5376, he asked G2065 (ImpfActInd) his G846 disciples G3101, saying G3004 (PresActPtc), Whom G5101 do men G444 say G3004 (PresActInd) that I G3165 the Son G5207 of man G444 am G1511 (PresInf)?
[14] And G1161 they said G2036 (Aor2ActInd), Some [say that thou art] G3303 John G2491 the Baptist G910: G1161 some G243, Elias G2243; and G1161 others G2087, Jeremias G2408, or G2228 one G1520 of the prophets G4396.
[15] He saith G3004 (PresActInd) unto them G846, But G1161 whom G5101 say G3004 (PresActInd) ye G5210 that I G3165 am G1511 (PresInf)?
[16] And G1161 Simon G4613 Peter G4074 answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd), Thou G4771 art G1488 (PresInd) the Christ G5547, the Son G5207 of the living G2198 (PresActPtc) God G2316.
[17] And G2532 Jesus G2424 answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Blessed G3107 art thou G1488 (PresInd), Simon G4613 Barjona G920: for G3754 flesh G4561 and G2532 blood G129 hath G601 not G3756 revealed G601 (AorActInd) [it] unto thee G4671, but G235 my G3450 Father G3962 which G3588 is in G1722 heaven G3772.
[18] And G1161 I say G3004 (PresActInd) also G2504 unto thee G4671, That G3754 thou G4771 art G1488 (PresInd) Peter G4074, and G2532 upon G1909 this G5026 rock G4073 I will build G3618 (FutActInd) my G3450 church G1577; and G2532 the gates G4439 of hell G86 shall G2729 not G3756 prevail against G2729 (FutActInd) it G846.
[19] And G2532 I will give G1325 (FutActInd) unto thee G4671 the keys G2807 of the kingdom G932 of heaven G3772: and G2532 whatsoever G3739 G1437 thou shalt bind G1210 (AorActSubj) on G1909 earth G1093 shall be G2071 (FutInd) bound G1210 (PerfPasPtc) in G1722 heaven G3772: and G2532 whatsoever G3739 G1437 thou shalt loose G3089 (AorActSubj) on G1909 earth G1093 shall be G2071 (FutInd) loosed G3089 (PerfPasPtc) in G1722 heaven G3772.
[20] Then G5119 charged he G1291 (AorMidInd) his G846 disciples G3101 that G2443 they should tell G2036 (Aor2ActSubj) no man G3367 that G3754 he G846 was G2076 (PresInd) Jesus G2424 the Christ G5547.
[21] From G575 that time forth G5119 began G756 (AorMidDepInd) Jesus G2424 to shew G1166 (PresActInf) unto his G846 disciples G3101, how that G3754 he G846 must G1163 (PresInd) go G565 (Aor2ActInf) unto G1519 Jerusalem G2414, and G2532 suffer G3958 (Aor2ActInf) many things G4183 of G575 the elders G4245 and G2532 chief priests G749 and G2532 scribes G1122, and G2532 be killed G615 (AorPasInf), and G2532 be raised again G1453 (AorPasInf) the third G5154 day G2250.
[22] Then G2532 Peter G4074 took G4355 (Aor2MidPtc) him G846, and began G756 (AorMidDepInd) to rebuke G2008 (PresActInf) him G846, saying G3004 (PresActPtc), Be it far G2436 from thee G4671, Lord G2962: this G5124 shall G2071 not G3364 be G2071 (FutInd) unto thee G4671.
[23] But G1161 he turned G4762 (Aor2PasPtc), and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto Peter G4074, Get thee G5217 (PresActImpr) behind G3694 me G3450, Satan G4567: thou G1488 (PresInd) art G3754 an offence G4625 unto me G3450: for thou savourest G5426 (PresActInd) not G3756 the things G3588 that be of God G2316, but G235 those that be of men G444.
[24] Then G5119 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) Jesus G2424 unto his G846 disciples G3101, If any G1536 [man] will G2309 (PresActInd) come G2064 (Aor2ActInf) after G3694 me G3450, let him deny G533 (AorMidDepImpr) himself G1438, and G2532 take up G142 (AorActImpr) his G846 cross G4716, and G2532 follow G190 (PresActImpr) me G3427.
[25] For G1063 whosoever G3739 G302 will G2309 (PresActSubj) save G4982 (AorActInf) his G846 life G5590 shall lose G622 (FutActInd) it G846: and G1161 whosoever G3739 G302 will lose G622 (AorActSubj) his G846 life G5590 for G1752 my G1700 sake G1752 shall find G2147 (FutActInd) it G846.
[26] For G1063 what G5101 is a man G444 profited G5623 (PresPasInd), if G1437 he shall gain G2770 (AorActSubj) the whole G3650 world G2889, and G1161 lose G2210 (AorPasSubj) his own G846 soul G5590? or G2228 what G5101 shall a man G444 give G1325 (FutActInd) in exchange G465 for his G846 soul G5590?
[27] For G1063 the Son G5207 of man G444 shall G3195 (PresActInd) come G2064 (PresMidPasDepInf) in G1722 the glory G1391 of his G846 Father G3962 with G3326 his G846 angels G32; and G2532 then G5119 he shall reward G591 (FutActInd) every man G1538 according G2596 to his G846 works G4234.
[28] Verily G281 I say G3004 (PresActInd) unto you G5213, There be G1526 (PresInd) some G5100 standing G2476 (PerfActPtc) here G5602, which G3748 shall G1089 not G3364 taste G1089 (AorMidDepSubj) of death G2288, till G302 G2193 they see G1492 (Aor2ActSubj) the Son G5207 of man G444 coming G2064 (PresMidPasDepPtc) in G1722 his G846 kingdom G932.

Young’s Literal Translation

Matthew 16 (YLT)

[1] And the Pharisees and Sadducees having come, tempting, did question him, to shew to them a sign from the heaven,
[2] and he answering said to them, ‘Evening having come, ye say, Fair weather, for the heaven is red,
[3] and at morning, Foul weather to-day, for the heaven is red-gloomy; hypocrites, the face of the heavens indeed ye do know to discern, but the signs of the times ye are not able!
[4] ‘A generation evil and adulterous doth seek a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet;’ and having left them he went away.
[5] And his disciples having come to the other side, forgot to take loaves,
[6] and Jesus said to them, ‘Beware, and take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees;’
[7] and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, ‘Because we took no loaves.’
[8] And Jesus having known, said to them, ‘Why reason ye in yourselves, ye of little faith, because ye took no loaves?
[9] do ye not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets ye took up?
[10] nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
[11] how do ye not understand that I did not speak to you of bread-to take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?’
[12] Then they understood that he did not say to take heed of the leaven of the bread, but of the teaching, of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
[13] And Jesus, having come to the parts of Caesarea Philippi, was asking his disciples, saying, ‘Who do men say me to be-the Son of Man?’
[14] and they said, ‘Some, John the Baptist, and others, Elijah, and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.’
[15] He saith to them, ‘And ye-who do ye say me to be?’
[16] and Simon Peter answering said, ‘Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.’
[17] And Jesus answering said to him, ‘Happy art thou, Simon Bar-Jona, because flesh and blood did not reveal it to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens.
[18] ‘And I also say to thee, that thou art a rock, and upon this rock I will build my assembly, and gates of Hades shall not prevail against it;
[19] and I will give to thee the keys of the reign of the heavens, and whatever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be having been bound in the heavens, and whatever thou mayest loose upon the earth shall be having been loosed in the heavens.’
[20] Then did he charge his disciples that they may say to no one that he is Jesus the Christ.
[21] From that time began Jesus to shew to his disciples that it is necessary for him to go away to Jerusalem, and to suffer many things from the elders, and chief priests, and scribes, and to be put to death, and the third day to rise.
[22] And having taken him aside, Peter began to rebuke him, saying, ‘Be kind to thyself, sir; this shall not be to thee;’
[23] and he having turned, said to Peter, ‘Get thee behind me, adversary! thou art a stumbling-block to me, for thou dost not mind the things of God, but the things of men.’
[24] Then said Jesus to his disciples, ‘If any one doth will to come after me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow me,
[25] for whoever may will to save his life, shall lose it, and whoever may lose his life for my sake shall find it,
[26] for what is a man profited if he may gain the whole world, but of his life suffer loss? or what shall a man give as an exchange for his life?
[27] ‘For, the Son of Man is about to come in the glory of his Father, with his messengers, and then he will reward each, according to his work.
[28] Verily I say to you, there are certain of those standing here who shall not taste of death till they may see the Son of Man coming in his reign.’
