Matthäus 16 | English Standard Version

The Pharisees and Sadducees Demand Signs

1 And the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and to test him they asked him to show them a sign from heaven. 2 He answered 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 stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. 4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.” So he left them and departed.

The Leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees

5 When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to bring any bread. 6 Jesus said to them, “Watch and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 7 And they began discussing it among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.” 8 But Jesus, aware of this, said, “O you of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you have no bread? 9 Do you not yet perceive? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered? 10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you gathered? 11 How is it that you fail to understand that I did not speak about bread? Beware of the 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 teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Peter Confesses Jesus as the Christ

13 Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 And they said, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 And Jesus answered him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock* I will build my church, and the gates of hell* shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed* in heaven.” 20 Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ.

Jesus Foretells His Death and Resurrection

21 From that time Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised. 22 And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, “Far be it from you, Lord!* This shall never happen to you.” 23 But he turned and said to Peter, “Get behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance* to me. For you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but on the things of man.”

Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus

24 Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 25 For whoever would save his life* will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul? 27 For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done. 28 Truly, I say to you, there are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”

الكتاب المقدس

الفريسيون يطلبون آية

1 وَجَاءَ بَعْضُ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَالصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ إِلَى يَسُوعَ لِيُوْقِعُوا بِهِ، فَطَلَبُوا إِلَيْهِ أَنْ يُرِيَهُمْ مُعْجِزَةً مِنَ السَّمَاءِ. 2 فَأَجَابَهُمْ: «إِذَا كَانَتِ السَّمَاءُ حَمْرَاءَ صَافِيَةً عِنْدَ الْغُرُوبِ، تَقُولُونَ: سَيَكُونُ الْجَوُّ صَحْواً! 3 وَإذَا كَانَتِ السَّمَاءُ حَمْرَاءَ مُلَبَّدَةً بِالْغُيُومِ فِي الصَّبَاحِ، تَقُولُونَ: الْيَوْمَ مَطَرٌ! إِنَّكُمْ تَسْتَدِلُّونَ عَلَى حَالَةِ الطَّقْسِ مِنْ مَنْظَرِ السَّمَاءِ. أَمَّا عَلامَاتُ الأَزْمِنَةِ، فَلا تَسْتَطِيعُونَ الِاسْتِدْلالَ عَلَيْهَا! 4 جِيلٌ شِرِّيرٌ خَائِنٌ يَطْلُبُ آيَةً، وَلَنْ يُعْطَى آيَةً إِلّا مَا حَدَثَ لِلنَّبِيِّ يُونَانَ». ثُمَّ فَارَقَهُمْ وَمَضَى.

خمير الفريسيين والصدوقيين

5 وَلَمَّا وَصَلَ تَلامِيذُهُ إِلَى الشَّاطِئِ الآخَرِ، كَانُوا قَدْ نَسُوا أَنْ يَتَزَوَّدُوا خُبْزاً. 6 وَقَالَ لَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «انْتَبِهُوا! خُذُوا حِذْرَكُمْ مِنْ خَمِيرِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَالصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ!» 7 فَبَدَأُوا يُحَاوِرُونَ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضاً، قَائِلِينَ: «هَذَا لأَنَّنَا لَمْ نَأْخُذْ خُبْزاً!» 8 وَعَلِمَ يَسُوعُ بِذَلِكَ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «يَا قَلِيلِي الإِيمَانِ، لِمَاذَا تُحَاوِرُونَ بَعْضُكُمْ بَعْضاً لأَنَّكُمْ لَمْ تَأْخُذُوا خُبْزاً؟ 9 أَلا تَفْهَمُونَ بَعْدُ؟ أَمْ نَسِيتُمُ الأَرْغِفَةَ الْخَمْسَةَ الَّتِي أَشْبَعَتِ الْخَمْسَةَ الآلافِ، وَكَمْ قُفَّةً رَفَعْتُمْ مِنْهَا؟ 10 أَوَ نَسِيتُمُ الأَرْغِفَةَ السَّبْعَةَ الَّتِي أَشْبَعَتِ الأَرْبَعَةَ الآلافِ، وَكَمْ سَلًّا رَفَعْتُمْ مِنْهَا؟ 11 كَيْفَ لَا تَفْهَمُونَ أَنِّي لَمْ أَكُنْ أَعْنِي الْخُبْزَ حِينَ قُلْتُ لَكُمْ: خُذُوا حِذْرَكُمْ مِنْ خَمِيرِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَالصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ؟» 12 عِنْدَئِذٍ أَدْرَكَ التَّلامِيذُ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُحَذِّرُهُمْ مِنْ خَمِيرِ الْخُبْزِ، بَلْ مِنْ تَعْلِيمِ الْفَرِّيسِيِّينَ وَالصَّدُّوقِيِّينَ.

اعتراف بطرس بالمسيح

13 وَلَمَّا وَصَلَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى نَوَاحِي قَيْصَرِيَّةِ فِيلِبُّسَ، سَأَلَ تَلامِيذَهُ: «مَنْ يَقُولُ النَّاسُ إِنِّي أَنَا، ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ؟» 14 فَأَجَابُوهُ: «يَقُولُ بَعْضُهُمْ إِنَّكَ يُوحَنَّا الْمَعْمَدَانُ، وَغَيْرُهُمْ إِنَّكَ النَّبِيُّ إِيلِيَّا، وآخَرُونَ إِنَّكَ إِرْمِيَا، أَوْ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ الأَنْبِيَاءِ». 15 فَسَأَلَهُمْ: «وَأَنْتُمْ، مَنْ تَقُولُونَ إِنِّي أَنَا؟» 16 فَأَجَابَ سِمْعَانُ بُطْرُسُ قَائِلاً: «أَنْتَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ ابْنُ اللهِ الْحَيِّ!» 17 فَقَالَ لَهُ يَسُوعُ: «طُوبَى لَكَ يَا سِمْعَانَ بْنَ يُونَا. فَمَا أَعْلَنَ لَكَ هَذَا لَحْمٌ وَدَمٌ، بَلْ أَبِي الَّذِي فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ. 18 وَأَنَا أَيْضاً أَقُولُ لَكَ: أَنْتَ صَخْرٌ. وَعَلَى هَذِهِ الصَّخْرَةِ أَبْنِي كَنِيسَتِي وَقُوَّاتُ الْجَحِيمِ لَنْ تَقْوَى عَلَيْهَا! 19 وَأُعْطِيكَ مَفَاتِيحَ مَلَكُوتِ السَّمَاوَاتِ: فَكُلُّ مَا تَرْبِطُهُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، يَكُونُ قَدْ رُبِطَ فِي السَّمَاءِ؛ وَمَا تَحُلُّهُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، يَكُونُ قَدْ حُلَّ فِي السَّمَاءِ!» 20 ثُمَّ حَذَّرَ تَلامِيذَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَقُولُوا لأَحَدٍ إِنَّهُ هُوَ الْمَسِيحُ.

المسيح يعلن عن موته وقيامته

21 مِنْ ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ، بَدَأَ يَسُوعُ يُعْلِنُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ أَنَّهُ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَمْضِيَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَيَتَأَلَّمَ عَلَى أَيْدِي الشُّيُوخِ وَرُؤَسَاءِ الْكَهَنَةِ وَالْكَتَبَةِ، وَيُقْتَلَ، وَفِي الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثِ يُقَامُ. 22 فَانْتَحَى بِهِ بُطْرُسُ جَانِباً، وَأَخَذَ يَلُومُهُ، قَائِلاً: «حَاشَا لَكَ يَا رَبُّ أَنْ يَحْدُثَ لَكَ هَذَا!» 23 فَالْتَفَتَ يَسُوعُ إِلَى بُطْرُسَ وَقَالَ لَهُ: «اغْرُبْ مِنْ أَمَامِي يَا شَيْطَانُ! أَنْتَ عَقَبَةٌ أَمَامِي، لأَنَّكَ تُفَكِّرُ لَا بِأُمُورِ اللهِ، بَلْ بِأُمُورِ النَّاسِ!» 24 ثُمَّ قَالَ يَسُوعُ لِتَلامِيذِهِ: «إِنْ أَرَادَ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَسِيرَ وَرَائِي، فَلْيُنْكِرْ نَفْسَهُ وَيَحْمِلْ صَلِيبَهُ وَيَتْبَعْنِي. 25 فَأَيُّ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ نَفْسَهُ، يَخْسَرُهَا؛ وَلكِنَّ مَنْ يَخْسَرُ نَفْسَهُ لأَجْلِي، فَإِنَّهُ يَجِدُهَا. 26 فَمَاذَا يَنْتَفِعُ الإِنْسَانُ لَوْ رَبِحَ الْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ وَخَسِرَ نَفْسَهُ؟ أَوْ مَاذَا يُقَدِّمُ الإِنْسَانُ فِدَاءً عَنْ نَفْسِهِ؟ 27 فَإِنَّ ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ سَوْفَ يَعُودُ فِي مَجْدِ أَبِيهِ مَعَ مَلائِكَتِهِ، فَيُجَازِي كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ أَعْمَالِهِ. 28 الْحَقَّ أَقُولُ لَكُمْ: إِنَّ بَعْضاً مِنَ الْوَاقِفِينَ هُنَا لَنْ يَذُوقُوا الْمَوْتَ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يَرَوْا ابْنَ الإِنْسَانِ آتِياً فِي مَلَكُوتِهِ».
