And there came to him the Pharisees and Sadducees tempting: and they asked him to shew them a sign from heaven.

But he answered and said to them: When it is evening, you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.

And in the morning: To day there will be a storm, for the sky is red and lowering. You know then how to discern the face of the sky: and can you not know the signs of the times?

A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign: and a sign shall not be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet. And he left them, and went away.

And when his disciples were come over the water, they had forgotten to take bread.

Who said to them: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

But they thought within themselves, saying: Because we have taken no bread.

And Jesus knowing it, said: Why do you think within yourselves, O ye of little faith, for that you have no bread?

Do you not yet understand, neither do you remember the five loaves among five thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?

Nor the seven loaves, among four thousand men, and how many baskets you took up?

Why do you not understand that it was not concerning bread I said to you: Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

Then they understood that he said not that they should beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

And Jesus came into the quarters of Cesarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: Whom do men say that the Son of man is?

But they said: Some John the Baptist, and other some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

Jesus saith to them: But whom do you say that I am?

Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God.

And Jesus answering said to him: Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.

And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven. And whatsoever thou shalt bind upon earth, it shall be bound also in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth, it shall be loosed also in heaven.

Then he commanded his disciples, that they should tell no one that he was Jesus the Christ.

From that time Jesus began to shew to his disciples, that he must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the ancients and scribes and chief priests, and be put to death, and the third day rise again.

And Peter taking him, began to rebuke him, saying: Lord, be it far from thee, this shall not be unto thee.

Who turning, said to Peter: Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men.

Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

For he that will save his life, shall lose it: and he that shall lose his life for my sake, shall find it.

For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works.

Amen I say to you, there are some of them that stand here, that shall not taste death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

In those days again, when there was a great multitude and they had nothing to eat; calling his disciples together, he saith to them:

I have compassion on the multitude, for behold they have now been with me three days and have nothing to eat.

And if I shall send them away fasting to their home, they will faint in the way: for some of them came from afar off.

And his disciples answered him: From whence can any one fill them here with bread in the wilderness?

And he asked them: How many loaves have ye? Who said: Seven.

And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he broke and gave to his disciples for to set before them. And they set them before the people.

And they had a few little fishes: and he blessed them and commanded them to be set before them.

And they did eat and were filled: and they took up that which was left of the fragments, seven baskets.

And they that had eaten were about four thousand. And he sent them away.

And immediately going up into a ship with his disciples, he came into the parts of Dalmanutha.

And the Pharisees came forth and began to question with him, asking him a sign from heaven, tempting him.

And sighing deeply in spirit, he saith: Why doth this generation seek a sign? Amen, I say to you, a sign shall not be given to this generation.

And leaving them, he went up again into the ship and passed to the other side of the water.

And they forgot to take bread: and they had but one loaf with them in the ship.

And he charged them saying: Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the leaven of Herod.

And they reasoned among themselves, saying: Because we have no bread.

Which Jesus knowing, saith to them: Why do you reason, because you have no bread? Do you not yet know nor understand? Have you still your heart blinded?

Having eyes, see you not? And having ears, hear you not? Neither do you remember?

When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? They say to him: Twelve.

When also the seven loaves among four thousand, how many baskets of fragments took you up? And they say to him: Seven.

And he said to them: How do you not yet understand?

And they came to Bethsaida: and they bring to him a blind man. And they besought him that he would touch him.

And taking the blind man by the hand, he led him out of the town. And spitting upon his eyes, laying his hands on him, he asked him if he saw any thing.

And looking up, he said: I see men, as it were trees, walking.

After that again he laid his hands upon his eyes: and he began to see and was restored, so that he saw all things clearly.

And he sent him into his house, saying: Go into thy house, and if thou enter into the town, tell nobody.

And Jesus went out, and his disciples into the towns of Cæsarea Philippi. And in the way, he asked his disciples, saying to them: Whom do men say that I am?

Who answered him, saying: John the Baptist; but some Elias, and others as one of the prophets.

Then he saith to them: But whom do you say that I am? Peter answering said to him: Thou art the Christ.

And he strictly charged them that they should not tell any man of him.

And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the ancients and by the high priests and the scribes: and be killed and after three days rise again.

And he spoke the word openly. And Peter taking him began to rebuke him.

Who turning about and seeing his disciples, threatened Peter, saying: Go behind me, Satan, because thou savourest not the things that are of God but that are of men.

And calling the multitude together with his disciples, he said to them: If any man will follow me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel shall save it.

For what shall it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul?

Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, in this adulterous and sinful generation: the Son of man also will be ashamed of him, when he shall come in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

And he said to them: Amen I say to you that there are some of them that stand here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God coming in power.

And it came to pass, as he was alone praying, his disciples also were with him: and he asked them, saying: Whom do the people say that I am?

But they answered and said: John the Baptist; but some say Elias: and others say that one of the former prophets is risen again.

And he said to them: But whom do you say that I am? Simon Peter answering, said: The Christ of God.

But he strictly charging them, commanded they should tell this to no man.

Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes and be killed and the third day rise again.

And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: for he that shall lose his life for my sake shall save it.

For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world and lose himself and cast away himself?

For he that shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him the Son of man shall be ashamed, when he shall come in his majesty and that of his Father and of the holy angels.

But I tell you of a truth: There are some standing here that shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God.
