Matthew 16:21-23

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²¹From that time forth Jesus began [clearly] to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders and the high priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised ^[a]from death.

²²Then Peter took Him aside ^[b]to speak to Him privately and began to reprove and ^[c]charge Him sharply, saying, God forbid, Lord! This must never happen to You!

²³But Jesus turned ^[d]away from Peter and said to him, Get behind Me, Satan! You are in My way [an offense and a hindrance and a snare to Me]; for you are ^[e]minding what partakes not of the nature and quality of God, but of men.

²²Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. “Never, Lord!” he said. “This shall never happen to you!”

²³Jesus turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan!^(H) You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”
