Mark 8:27-30

Christian Standard Bible

Peter’s Confession of the Messiah

²⁷ Jesus^(A) went out with his disciples to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. And on the road he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that I am?”

²⁸ They answered him, “John the Baptist;^(B) others, Elijah; still others, one of the prophets.”^(C)

²⁹ “But you,” he asked them, “who do you say that I am?”

Peter^(D) answered him, “You are the Messiah.”^{(E) 30} And he strictly warned^(F) them to tell no one about him.
