1. The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and testing him desired that he would show them a sign from heaven.
2. He answered and said unto them,
3. And in the morning, It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and overcast. O you hypocrites, you can discern the appearance of the sky; but can you not discern the signs of the times?
4. A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah.
5. And when his disciples came to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6. Then Jesus said unto them,
7. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8. Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them,
9. Do you not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
10. Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
11. How is it that you do not understand that I spoke not to you concerning bread, that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12. Then understood they that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13. When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying,
14. And they said, Some say that you are John the Baptist: some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
15. He said unto them,
16. And Simon Peter answered, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17. And Jesus answered and said unto him,
18. And I say also unto you, That you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hades shall not prevail against it.
19. And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be what has been bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be what has been loosed in heaven.
20. Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21. From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from you, Lord: this shall not be unto you.
23. But he turned, and said unto Peter,
24. Then said Jesus unto his disciples,
25. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27. For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28. Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, who shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
