Matthew 16:22

New English Translation

²²So Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him:^[a] “God forbid,^[b] Lord! This must not happen to you!”

Matthew 16:22 tn Grk “began to rebuke him, saying.” The participle λέγων (legōn) is redundant in English and has not been translated.
Matthew 16:22 tn Grk “Merciful to you.” A highly elliptical expression: “May God be merciful to you in sparing you from having to undergo [some experience]” (L&N 88.78). A contemporary English equivalent is “God forbid!”
