Matthew 16:16-19
New American Standard Bible 1995

16 Simon Peter answered, “You are [a](A)the Christ, (B)the Son of (C)the living God.” 17 And Jesus said to him, “Blessed are you, (D)Simon [b]Barjona, because (E)flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 I also say to you that you are [c](F)Peter, and upon this [d]rock I will build My church; and the gates of (G)Hades will not overpower it. 19 I will give you (H)the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and (I)whatever you bind on earth [e]shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth [f]shall have been loosed in heaven.”
