Matthew 16:13-20

ABU(i) 13 And having come into the region of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked his disciples, saying: Who do men say that the Son of man is? 14 And they said: Some, John the Immerser; and others, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets. 15 He says to them: But who do ye say that I am? 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-jonah; for flesh and blood did not reveal it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of the underworld shall not prevail against it. 19 And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 20 Then he charged his disciples, that they should tell no one that he is the Christ.
