International Standard Version

Peter Declares His Faith in Jesus^(A)

¹⁸ One day, while Jesus^[a] was praying privately and the disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say I am?”

¹⁹ They answered, “Some say^[b] John the Baptist, others Elijah, and still others one of the ancient prophets who has come back to life.”

²⁰ He asked them, “But who do you say I am?”

“God’s Messiah,”^[c] Peter replied.
