King James 2000

Matthew 16:14-21 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

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.
