Mateo 16
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Humingi ng Himala ang mga Pariseo at Saduceo(A)
16 May mga Pariseo at Saduceo na lumapit kay Jesus para subukin siya. Hiniling nilang magpakita siya ng himala mula sa Dios[a] bilang patunay na sugo siya ng Dios. 2 Pero sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Kapag palubog na ang araw at mapula ang langit, sinasabi ninyo, ‘Magiging maayos ang panahon bukas.’ 3 At kapag umaga at makulimlim ang langit, sinasabi ninyo, ‘Uulan ngayon.’ Alam ninyo ang kahulugan ng mga palatandaang nakikita ninyo sa langit, pero bakit hindi ninyo alam ang kahulugan ng mga nangyayari ngayon? 4 Kayong henerasyon ng masasama at hindi tapat sa Dios! Humihingi kayo ng himala, pero walang ipapakita sa inyo maliban sa himalang katulad ng nangyari kay Jonas.” Pagkatapos, umalis si Jesus.
Ang Babala ni Jesus tungkol sa Turo ng mga Pariseo at mga Saduceo(B)
5 Tumawid ng lawa si Jesus at ang mga tagasunod niya, pero nakalimutan ng mga tagasunod na magbaon ng pagkain. 6 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Mag-ingat kayo sa pampaalsa[b] ng mga Pariseo at mga Saduceo.” 7 Nag-usap-usap ang mga tagasunod ni Jesus. Akala nila, kaya niya sinabi iyon ay dahil wala silang dalang tinapay. 8 Pero alam ni Jesus ang pinag-uusapan nila, kaya sinabi niya, “Bakit ninyo pinag-uusapan ang hindi ninyo pagdadala ng tinapay? Kay liit ng pananampalataya ninyo! 9 Hindi pa ba kayo nakakaunawa? Nakalimutan na ba ninyo ang ginawa ko sa limang tinapay para mapakain ang 5,000 tao? Hindi ba ninyo naalala kung ilang basket ang napuno ninyo ng mga natirang pagkain? 10 Nakalimutan na rin ba ninyo ang ginawa ko sa pitong tinapay para mapakain ang 4,000 tao, at kung ilang basket ang napuno ninyo ng mga natirang pagkain? 11 Hindi ba ninyo naiintindihan na hindi tinapay ang tinutukoy ko nang sabihin kong, ‘Mag-ingat kayo sa pampaalsa ng mga Pariseo at Saduceo?’ ” 12 At saka lang nila naintindihan na hindi pala sila pinag-iingat sa pampaalsa kundi sa mga aral ng mga Pariseo at Saduceo.
Ang Pahayag ni Pedro Tungkol kay Jesus(C)
13 Nang makarating si Jesus sa lupain ng Cesarea Filipos, tinanong niya ang kanyang mga tagasunod, “Ano ang sinasabi ng mga tao tungkol sa akin na Anak ng Tao?” 14 Sumagot sila, “May mga nagsasabing kayo po si Juan na tagapagbautismo. May nagsasabi ring kayo si Elias. At ang iba namaʼy nagsasabing kayo si Jeremias o isa sa mga propeta.” 15 Tinanong sila ni Jesus, “Pero sa inyo, sino ako?” 16 Sumagot si Simon Pedro, “Kayo po ang Cristo, ang Anak ng Dios na buhay.” 17 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanya, “Pinagpala ka ng Dios, Simon na anak ni Jonas. Sapagkat hindi tao ang nagpahayag sa iyo ng bagay na ito kundi ang aking Amang nasa langit. 18 At ngayon sinasabi ko sa iyo na ikaw si Pedro,[c] at sa batong ito, itatayo ko ang aking iglesya,[d] at hindi ito malulupig kahit ng kapangyarihan ng kamatayan.[e] 19 Ibibigay ko sa iyo ang kapangyarihan[f] sa kaharian ng Dios.[g] Anuman ang ipagbawal mo sa lupa ay ipagbabawal din sa langit, at anuman ang ipahintulot mo sa lupa ay ipapahintulot din sa langit.” 20 Pagkatapos nito, sinabihan ni Jesus ang mga tagasunod niya na huwag nilang ipaalam kahit kanino na siya ang Cristo.
Ang Unang Pagpapahayag ni Jesus tungkol sa Kanyang Kamatayan(D)
21 Mula noon, ipinaalam na ni Jesus sa mga tagasunod niya na dapat siyang pumunta sa Jerusalem at dumanas ng maraming paghihirap sa kamay ng mga pinuno ng mga Judio, ng mga namamahalang pari at ng mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan. At siyaʼy ipapapatay nila, pero sa ikatlong araw ay muli siyang mabubuhay. 22 Nang marinig ito ni Pedro, dinala niya si Jesus sa isang tabi at sinabihan, “Panginoon, huwag po sanang ipahintulot ng Dios. Hindi ito dapat mangyari sa inyo.” 23 Hinarap ni Jesus si Pedro at sinabi, “Lumayo ka sa akin, Satanas! Pinipigilan mo akong gawin ang kalooban ng Dios, dahil hindi ayon sa kalooban ng Dios ang iniisip mo kundi ayon sa kalooban ng tao!”
24 Pagkatapos, sinabi ni Jesus sa mga tagasunod niya, “Ang sinumang gustong sumunod sa akin ay hindi dapat inuuna ang sarili. At dapat handa siyang humarap kahit sa kamatayan[h] alang-alang sa pagsunod niya sa akin. 25 Sapagkat ang taong naghahangad magligtas ng kanyang buhay ay mawawalan nito. Ngunit ang taong nagnanais mag-alay ng kanyang buhay alang-alang sa akin ay magkakaroon ng buhay na walang hanggan. 26 Ano ba ang mapapala ng tao kung mapasakanya man ang lahat ng bagay sa mundo, pero mapapahamak naman ang kanyang buhay? May maibabayad ba siya para mabawi niya ang kanyang buhay? 27 Sapagkat ako na Anak ng Tao ay darating kasama ang mga anghel, at taglay ang kapangyarihan ng Ama. Sa araw na iyon, gagantimpalaan ko ang bawat isa ayon sa kanyang mga gawa. 28 Sinasabi ko sa inyo ang totoo, may ilan sa inyo rito na hindi mamamatay hanggaʼt hindi nila nakikita ang Anak ng Tao na dumarating bilang Hari.”

New King James Version
The Pharisees and Sadducees Seek a Sign(A)
16 Then the (B)Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing Him asked that He would show them a sign from heaven. 2 He answered and said to them, “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red’; 3 and in the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ [a]Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times. 4 (C)A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and no sign shall be given to it except the sign of [b]the prophet Jonah.” And He left them and departed.
The Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees(D)
5 Now (E)when His disciples had come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread. 6 Then Jesus said to them, (F)“Take heed and beware of the [c]leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.”
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have taken no bread.”
8 But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “O you of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves because you [d]have brought no bread? 9 (G)Do you not yet understand, or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up? 10 (H)Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many large baskets you took up? 11 How is it you do not understand that I did not speak to you concerning bread?—but to beware of the [e]leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 12 Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the [f]doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ(I)
13 When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, (J)“Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
14 So they said, (K)“Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or (L)one of the prophets.”
15 He said to them, “But who do (M)you say that I am?”
16 Simon Peter answered and said, (N)“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, (O)for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but (P)My Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that (Q)you are Peter, and (R)on this rock I will build My church, and (S)the gates of Hades shall not [g]prevail against it. 19 (T)And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth [h]will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
20 (U)Then He commanded His disciples that they should tell no one that He was Jesus the Christ.
Jesus Predicts His Death and Resurrection(V)
21 From that time Jesus began (W)to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.
22 Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, [i]“Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!”
23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, (X)Satan! (Y)You are [j]an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”
Take Up the Cross and Follow Him(Z)
24 (AA)Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and (AB)follow Me. 25 For (AC)whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what (AD)profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or (AE)what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 For (AF)the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father (AG)with His angels, (AH)and then He will reward each according to his works. 28 Assuredly, I say to you, (AI)there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”

New Testament for Everyone
The leaven of the Pharisees
16 The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tried to catch him out by asking him to show them a sign from heaven.
2 This was his reply to them: “When it’s evening you say, ‘Sky looks like wine, it’s going to be fine.’ 3 And in the morning you say, ‘Red in the sky, rain by and by.’ Well then: you know how to work out the look of the sky, so why can’t you work out the signs of the times? 4 The generation that wants a sign is wicked and corrupt! No sign will be given to it, except the sign of Jonah.”
With that, he left them and went away.
5 When the disciples crossed over the lake, they forgot to bring any bread. 6 “Watch out,” said Jesus to them, “and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
7 They discussed it with each other. “It’s because we didn’t bring any bread,” they said.
8 But Jesus knew what they were thinking. “You really are a little-faith lot!” he said. “Why are you discussing with each other that you haven’t got any bread? 9 Don’t you understand, even now? Don’t you remember the five loaves and the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you picked up afterwards? 10 Or the seven loaves and the four thousand, and how many baskets you picked up? 11 Why can’t you see that I wasn’t talking about bread? Watch out for the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!”
12 Then they understood that he wasn’t telling them to beware of the leaven you get in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Peter’s declaration of Jesus’ messiahship
13 Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi. There he put this question to his disciples: “Who do people say that the son of man is?”
14 “John the Baptist,” they replied. “Others say Elijah. Others say Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”
15 “What about you?” he asked them. “Who do you say I am?”
16 Simon Peter answered.
“You’re the Messiah,” he said. “You’re the son of the living God!”
17 “God’s blessing on you, Simon, son of John!” answered Jesus. “Flesh and blood didn’t reveal that to you; it was my father in heaven. 18 And I’ve got something to tell you, too: you are Peter, the rock, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell won’t overpower it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you tie up on earth will have been tied up in heaven, and whatever you untie on earth will have been untied in heaven.”
20 Then he sternly ordered the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.
Jesus predicts his death
21 From then on Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he would have to go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised on the third day.
22 Peter took him and began to tell him off. “Certainly not, Master!” he said. “That’s never, ever going to happen to you!”
23 Jesus turned on Peter. “Get behind me, satan!” he said. “You’re trying to trip me up! You’re coming at this from a human point of view, not from God’s point of view!”
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “If anyone wants to come after me, they must give themselves up, and pick up their cross, and follow me. 25 Yes: if someone wants to save their life, they must lose it; and if anyone loses their life for my sake they will find it. 26 What use will it be, otherwise, if you win the whole world but forfeit your true life? What will you give to get your life back? 27 You see, the son of man is going to ‘come in the glory of his father with his angels,’ and then ‘he will reward everyone for the work they have done.’ 28 I’m telling you the truth: some of those standing here will not taste death until they see ‘the son of man coming in his kingdom.’ ”
Matthew 16
King James Version
16 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be 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 shew 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.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
28 Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
