Matthew 16

 

 

13

 When Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi  he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"

14

They replied, "Some say John the Baptist,  others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

15

He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"

16

 Simon Peter said in reply, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."

17

Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood  has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father.

18

And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church,  and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.

MATTHAEUM 16

13 Venit autem Iesus in partes Caesareae Philippi et interrogabat discipulos suos dicens: “ Quem dicunt homines esse Filium hominis?”.
14 At illi dixerunt: “ Alii Ioannem Baptistam, alii autem Eliam, alii vero Ieremiam, aut unum ex prophetis ”.
15 Dicit illis: “ Vos autem quem me esse dicitis? ”.
16 Respondens Simon Petrus dixit: “ Tu es Christus, Filius Dei vivi ”.
17 Respondens autem Iesus dixit ei: “ Beatus es, Simon Bariona, quia caro et sanguis non revelavit tibi sed Pater meus, qui in caelis est.
18 Et ego dico tibi: Tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram aedificabo Ecclesiam meam; et portae inferi non praevalebunt adversum eam.
